Going Up the Eiffel Tower

The Eiffel Tower stands as Paris’ most iconic monument, rising above the city with views that define the experience of being in Paris.

You meet your private guide and begin your ascent of the Iron Lady, moving step by step through its different levels. As you go up, the structure reveals its story through details, perspectives, and the evolution of the view over the city.

Throughout the visit, the tower becomes more than a landmark. Through stories and observations, you uncover how it was built, why it mattered, and how close it came to disappearing not long after its construction. From the first platforms to the highest point accessible, each level offers a new way to read the city and the monument itself.

Children follow the experience through a dedicated game, observing, connecting details, and engaging with what they see along the way, turning the climb into an active discovery.

This experience includes access to the 2nd floor or the summit depending on availability, along with a private guide and a game booklet for each child.

Please note that Eiffel Tower ticket availability is extremely limited and cannot be guaranteed in advance. Tickets are released only three months ahead and last minute adjustments may occasionally be necessary. In addition to your private guide, your family will be accompanied by an on site assistant to facilitate ticket access.

FAQ's

Is this tour with a private guide?

Yes. Your family or group will have your own dedicated private guide throughout the experience. Please note that the Eiffel Tower remains open to the public, so there will be other visitors at the monument.

When is the best time to visit the Eiffel Tower?

During the summer season and special holidays, there is no best time, as the Eiffel Tower is always very crowded.

Are the parents staying with the children or separated?

We always promote a family-bonding moment, where parents and children enjoy an activity together as a family. So, parents and children will not be separated. However, if you choose to send your children on this activity alone, it is possible, provided that a babysitter accompanies the children regardless of the age, for insurance purposes (our guides are not responsible for the children).

Is it suitable for kids under 6 years old?

Yes it is. Going up the Eiffel Tower is an experience for children (and adults) of any age. Although the younger children who don’t know how to read and write will not be able to enjoy the game booklet, they will always love the experience of being in a high tower. you will be taking the elevators.

Once the tour is finished, can we stay inside the Eiffel Tower or go back in?

Of course, you are free to stay inside the Eiffel Tower if you wish to continue enjoying the views once the tour is finished. However, once you have reached the 3rd floor and go back to the second floor, you will not be able to go back up. And if you reach the ground level, you will not be able to get back up.

Can I bring a stroller or a wheelchair?

Although technically it is possible, it can be difficult as the Eiffel Tower is usually quite crowded. We recommend not to bring a stroller and we do not recommend this tour for people with reduced mobility (access to the top floor is not possible).

Will my teenage kids like the tour?

Sure they will! It’s probably what they have been waiting for, and they will get beautiful pictures and selfies for their social media accounts!

Is access to the summit guaranteed?

Unfortunately, access to the summit cannot be guaranteed. Tickets are released only three months in advance and availability is very limited. When the summit is not available, access will be provided to the 2nd floor instead, which already offers exceptional views over Paris.
