Description
An Eiffel Tower stairs climb tour turns the visit into a walk up the tower itself, with a guide telling the story as the city opens out below you. The group meets close to the tower, and while the guide sorts out the tickets you hear how the monument was engineered and why some people wanted it pulled down.
The climb covers 704 steps to the second floor. On the first level a glass floor lets you look straight down from 57 metres. Higher up, the guide names the sights in view: Notre-Dame, the Arc de Triomphe and the avenue of the Champs-Élysées.
- Stair tickets for the first and second floors
- A live guide, in English or Spanish
- No more than 20 people in the group
- Time to roam the tower freely once the guided part ends
When you book you can add the lift to the summit, where you see the restored office of Gustave Eiffel and a 360-degree view of Paris, or a Seine cruise as well. The climb is not for anyone with vertigo, heart problems or reduced mobility, and the summit can close for weather or crowd control.
