Description
Begin your tour at the base of the Eiffel Tower, where your expert English-speaking guide will escort your small group of no more than 6 people past the lines. Continue on your ascent to the very top of the Eiffel Tower. Standing in the elevator as it takes you up to nearly 300 meters in the air, with all of Paris spread out beneath you, is a truly exhilarating experience.
Learn about the Eiffel Tower’s history from your guide. Hear about the competition for a monument to welcome the world to Paris, the amazing engineering ingenuity of its architects, and the many controversies that accompanied it.
Today the Tower is loved and recognized globally: it plays host to countless proposals of marriage, and the whole city enjoys the magic of its nightly light show. An extraordinary feat of engineering, the Eiffel Tower weighs a colossal 10,100 tons, and was made with 18,038 pieces of iron – which are held together in that famous lattice structure with 2.5 million rivets.
At the top, see the fantastic exhibitions on display, including a reconstruction of Gustave Eiffel’s office with waxworks of him, his daughter, and the American inventor Thomas Edison. Be sure to toast your daring ascent in the champagne bar too. You can stay on the Eiffel Tower at your leisure or return to ground level with your guide.
