Evening tickets for the Eiffel Tower are in high demand, so don't hesitate to book your perfect tour in Paris! After meeting your friendly local guide near the riverbank at the bottom of the steps at Pont d'Iena and Quai Branly, your tour begins with a boat cruise along the Seine River. With a glass of champagne (or a soft drink) in hand, you’ll cruise along the Seine River for an hour, taking in many of the city’s most iconic sites before reaching the Eiffel Tower.

Next, your guide will help you skip the line for an experience you'll remember forever! With your elevator tickets, you'll head to second floor of the Eiffel Tower and you’ll enjoy the ultimate view of Paris. After your tour has finished, you can choose to stay at the tower for as long as you like (or until it closes).

If this tour is sold out on the day you're planning to come to the Eiffel Tower, try booking our other popular day tour of the Eiffel Tower that also goes to the second floor and includes a Seine River cruise! Or you can book tickets that guarantee entry to the first and second floors of the Eiffel Tower during the day without the cruise.
