From there, continue up to the summit platform and admire the magnificent panorama of the city below for as long as you desire.

Meet Tour Host Near the Eiffel Tower
After meeting your tour escort at the designated meeting spot and receiving your Eiffel Tower ticket, you’ll walk together to the entrance. Pass through security stress-free, and head to the elevator to begin your journey up the Eiffel Tower. Before stepping inside and being left to explore the Eiffel Tower independently, your host will share some interesting facts and gladly answer any questions.
Eiffel Tower Second Floor
A quick elevator ride brings you to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, where you’ll be treated to the first of many breathtaking views. Stroll along the spacious observation deck and watch the panorama of Paris unfold before you, and see if you can spot the Arc de Triomphe, Notre-Dame Cathedral, and the Louvre below.
Don’t forget to visit the exhibits detailing the tower's history and engineering marvels–and if you’re hungry, stop by one of the various snack bars to treat yourself to a drink or nibble with a view. While you could stay here all day, the next part of your Eiffel Tower experience promises to be even more magnificent.
Eiffel Tower Summit Platform
With your summit ticket ready, hop in line and catch the elevator to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Immediately upon stepping outside, you’ll discover just how far Paris stretches out around you. Feel free to linger up here as long as you’d like, and if you're in the mood to celebrate, opt for a drink at the perfectly-placed champagne bar lingering 906 feet above the city.
After you've soaked up the stunning scenery, make your way to the Eiffel Tower's first floor, where you'll discover a small museum about the tower and a glass floor perched 187 feet above the ground. Once you're done, head down to the ground floor and carry on with your exciting Parisian journey!

Kelli Davis
Our tour guide met us (late) at the meeting spot and walked us through the turnstiles along with other guests. She gave us a brief introduction and history of the Eiffel Tower. She took us to the elevators and told us to ride to the 2nd floor and then take the elevator to the top and she would meet us there. We never saw her again! We ran into many of the other guests, and none of them knew where she was either. It was very disappointing because we thought we were getting a guided tour with all kinds of information about structure and architecture. We’ve seen the Eiffel Tower before, but didn’t get that kind of information. This time we paid extra to get the full experience and now feel completely ripped off and abandoned.
