Step by Step
By joining this guided tour you'll be able to walk inside the Eiffel Tower, Paris' most iconic monument, which you'll get to know from an immersive and fun perspective.
Of the 1665 total steps, you will climb 674 to reach the first floor of the tower, while a professional guide tells you about the transcendental events that have made this structure, like the Colosseum for Rome, the universal icon of the French capital.
The 'Balcony of Paris', as it is also known, was created to be one of the main attractions of the city's historic Universal Exhibition, held in 1889, the same year the tower was founded.
Its impact was so high and immediate that it received approximately 12,000 visitors a day during the 22 days of the event.
Along the way, you'll enjoy breathtaking views of the 'City of Light' that will reaffirm its breathtaking beauty, such as the Louvre pyramid, Notre Dame Cathedral and the Musée d'Orsay, among many other sights.
When the tour reaches its climax, on floor two, you will have the opportunity to take a lift to the top if you have chosen this option when booking.
There you can visit places such as the champagne bar and the office of the famous Gustave Eiffel, the tower's creator, whom you can see recreated in a wax figure.
