“This is NOT a guided tour. You are paying for entry, audio guide and we included the Seine River cruise which we did later in the day. The tickets are sent to you prior to your tour date. No issues at the entry gate. The line at 0900 was already very long but it flowed well and we were through with very little fuss While we had the audio guide, these machines were a little more difficult to use so we just walked around. So much to see and we still didn’t cover everything. The museum is huge. This was my 2nd visit and I saw new things, exhibits, wings…”
Skip the stress with reserved Eiffel access and a 1-hour Seine cruise, plus guided stories and flexible cruise timing.
“This is a must do when in Paris, but it is very crowded. With a guide you get to stand in much shorter lines which makes it worth every penny. The views are amazing and the structure is incredible.”

“Visited from Toronto, Canada. This was an extremely romantic experience in Paris. Their upgraded privilege service will give you an amazing view of the Eiffel tower while eating a very delicious dinner. We really enjoyed the scallops, lamb shank and their dessert. The red wine their pair with dinner was a must have as well. Overall great experience!”
Seine River gourmet dinner cruise from the Eiffel Tower with 3 or 4 courses, wine, and live singer views of Paris by night.
“Best Valentine dinner ever. But doesn't need to be special occasion. Atmosphere, view, servers, food ALL First class.”

“Inconsistent commentary between stops - very sparse between stops 1 and 7, mostly music; more effusive and informative between stops 8 and 10. River cruise was very enjoyable and very much the highlight of the day. Maps on bus were out of date and did not correspond with stops. Long waits at some stops.”
