The tour itself was great. Our guide, Bayo was friendly, entertaining, interesting and very informative. He knew as much about the “art of guiding” as he did the Tower itself. 5 STAR. He is an employee of Ecklectours. This is the “Beware” when booking through “The Tour Guy”, which is who all of our European Tours are booked through. As explained to me. Sometimes if they don’t feel they have enough people to make a tour profitable enough they will “pass it on” to another company. And this happened to us. I was continually receiving notifications from The Tour Guy, regarding the time that I had booked my tour for as well confirmations. Problem was that they had passed the tour over to Ecklectours and the girl that was going to provide the tour had hurt her ankle. And they needed to reschedule. So when Ecklectours was trying to text, call and email me with what I thought was SPAM. I ignored it. It was not until after 11pm the night before what I thought was going to be an 11am tour. They made contact and wanted to reschedule for 7pm. We were able to make this work after cancelling other plans. And as I said the Tour was worth the money. But beware, if you start to receive emails and texts from other companies prior to your tour. They may now be giving the tour.

We had a wonderful tour climbing the Eiffel Tower. The tour time was changed at the last minute, which caused some concern as we were just arriving to Paris- but it worked out just fine and our guide was amazing. W every minute of it.

We really enjoyed our tour, especially as they gave our group and upgrade due to another party having some issues. We ended up taking elevators to the top which I would fully do again and recommend over the stairs. I’m afraid of heights, but it was no problem at all and our guide was very knowledgeable and fun. The iPads were a helpful way to show photos and explain things while we waiting in line. We were even running a little bit late due to missing the metro and the guide was communicative. We were able to catch up with the group in line. Great tour!

It was everything we expected and my granddaughter had a great time! I'm 78 years old but in pretty good shape. Climbing over 600 stairs was a chore, but I easily made it by taking it slowly.

She was so knowledgeable and down to earth. I learned a lot about not only the tower but Paris itself. I would do the tour again only if she was leading.
Great experience and super knowledgeable

Tour was very organized and our Young Lady Guide (can't remember her name) was fantastic. Only issue was the crowds lined up for tickets, which took a bit of time to get the tickets.... but, what do you expect in visiting one of the most iconic symbols of Paris. I would recommend this particular tour, but possibly, try the earliest time slot available to avoid the peak crowd times.
