Superb Guide

Denise_T, July 2023

Our guide, Kei, was excellent - personable, knowledgeable, flexible. She truly added to our enjoyment of the tour.

Lift up to the Eiffel!

Kathleen_A, July 2023

Kathryne was an excellent private guide. She explained the history of the Eiffel Tower as well as many other historical facts related to the city.

Fun, exciting and interesting

Sean_L, June 2023

Bayo, our tour guide was so knowledgeable, friendly, and fun. We had the best time- despite the rain. We would definitely recommend this tour!

Good guide bad tour company

Glenn_H, June 2023

Our guide was very good and we were having a great time until we had to do 28 questions as a "Game" which was obviously for the tour company to make sure the guide was doing his job. The next part was ridiculous our guide made us do a review and mention in it how good he was. This is obviously from the Tours company as well..

Response from Host, June 2023

Thank you for taking the time to report about your experience. I am grateful that you acknowledge that you liked your guide. It is from reviews like yours that we learn so much. It would be so helpful if you could share the name of your guide so we can find out from them if they have any insight about some of your comments. Our goal is that the guide will make the occasional wait times worthwhile and I see this is not the case with you. Your feedback is extremely valuable as it helps us identify where we can make improvements, and so I thank you again for this. Ruth.

You have to Katie the Eiffel Tower

Mark_D, June 2023

Katie was a blast very knowledgeable and accommodating, we loved having her as our guide. Without Katie access to the Eiffel Tower would be a tourist nightmare!

Cherry on Top experience

Kathryn_J, May 2023

Melanie is an excellent guide. We met her at the designated location. She is very personable and knowledgeable. Unfortunately there were no more skip the line tickets available but Melanie made the wait easy with lots of interesting information about the Eiffel tower. She had a notebook full of pictures to show us. We finally made it to the top to see all of Paris. We enjoyed our time on all the floors but the top was the coolest. Thank you Melanie for a great experience!

Disappointed

Deborah_J, May 2023

We paid for a Skip the Line tour with elevator to the summit…..Choice was to walk over 700 stairs or wait over 3 hours to board the elevator. After spending over $400, this was unacceptable

Response from Host, May 2023

Greetings and thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are never happy to hear that our guest is disappointed and we do our best to advise in advance that this is not a "skip the line tour", there could be wait time and the summit is sometimes closed at the discretion of Eiffel Tower staff. Feedback like yours is helpful so we can identify details in our process where we can improve, such as making sure the pre-tour information is as clear as possible. Thanks again for your review and we wish you safe travels always. Sergio

This was such a memorable...

James_S, May 2023

This was such a memorable and fun experience! Not only do you get up so much faster, you get the personal attention of an amazing private tour guide such as James! He was so friendly and provided so many facts about the Eiffel Tower that made the experience even more immersive. Ask for James if you book this tour!

Eiffel Tower with ease

Dayla_C, Oct 2021

Our guide did a great job of giving all sorts of information both on the tower and also about Paris while waiting in the few lines we had to wait in. Great tour!

Response from Host, Oct 2021
