Our VIP private Eiffel Tower experience lets you decide the best time to visit—whether it’s a morning adventure, a sunset glow, or Paris twinkling at night.

Then, head straight to the 2nd floor with a private guide, where exclusive insights and stunning views await. This is the Eiffel Tower as it was meant to be experienced: on your terms.

After meeting your friendly local guide near the Roman warrior statue at the corner of Pont d'Iena and Quai Branly, you'll set off on a wonderful 1-hour riverboat cruise through the heart of the city to see sights like the Louvre, Pont Neuf, and the Musée d’Orsay. You'll also enjoy a complimentary glass of champagne or soft drink on board.

Then, disembark from the boat and head to the Eiffel Tower, the pièce de résistance of this Paris experience. With your guide leading the way, you'll ascend the tower and head to second floor by elevator, where you’ll enjoy the ultimate view of Paris! After your tour has finished, you can choose to stay at the tower for as long as you like (or until it closes).

This tailored private tour has various start times, meaning you can choose the one that suits you. Evening starts are available, and offer a great opportunity to ascend the tower while the spectacular night time lights are on display! Feel free to contact us is you can't find a suitable start time.

Seine River Cruise with Champagne

If a Seine River boat cruise isn’t already on your list of things to do in Paris, it really should be! Taking in all of the best landmarks in the City of Lights from the water comes highly recommended, and it's a great way to get different perspective on the French capital. Embrace the ambiance of Paris and enjoy a luxurious experience with your closest friends or family.

Whether your tour starts during the day or as the sun sets, this is a magical way to begin! As you a sip complimentary glass of champagne, your guide will tell stories of Paris as you pass the Louvre, Musée d’Orsay, Notre Dame, and more. As your boat ride comes to an end, you'll see the spectacular and most iconic sight in Paris up close as you approach the Eiffel Tower.

Views from the Eiffel Tower Second Floor

Along with your private tour guide, you'll breeze past the Eiffel Tower’s long lines and get reserved access to the elevator which will take you up to the second floor. You'll hear stories about the construction of the Eiffel Tower and its meaning to the French people, as well as some fascinating tales about the history of Paris.

The star of the Paris skyline also offers the finest views over the rest of the city, so get your camera ready and take in the panoramic views of the French capital while it buzzes some 377 feet beneath you. It's the perfect way to end your unforgettable Paris tour, and you're welcome to stay and enjoy the views from the tower after the tour has finished too.

The Perfect Views at the Perfect Time

This private tour has start times available throughout the day, so you can choose the one that suits you best. If you're looking for an evening experience in Paris, then we highly recommend picking a later start time so you can enjoy the unforgettable nighttime panoramic view of Paris as the lights of the tower twinkle around you. It's a special experience that'll stay with you forever as you look out over the Champs de Mars and the iconic skyline of the Paris.

It was great! Enjoyed the river cruise (it was on one of the large cruise boats with other people) with the guide to point out key sites and interesting facts. And, we really enjoyed having him with us for the Eiffel Tower (our tickets did not include the top level) and seeing the tower light up and sparkle.
