Visiting the Eiffel Tower: Our standard itineraries do not include an opportunity to visit the Eiffel Tower's interior. During the high season, it is recommended to allocate at least 1.5 to 2 hours for the entire Eiffel Tower experience, even with a skip-the-line ticket. This is due to the time required for security checks, ascent, and descent. Our two tour options allocate 15-30 minutes at the Eiffel Tower. If you wish, you may visit the Eiffel Tower independently and rejoin the tour by taxi later. However, please note that you'll need to locate the tour group on your own, as shared tours follow a predetermined route and cannot be delayed for individuals. We also offer a private or semi-private tours with licensed Parisian guides who can create your perfect itinerary, including inside visits.
