David was a FABULOUS guide who took the time to explain every detail of the “journey to the top” and the remarkable sites of Paris as viewed from far above. our group of four loved it!
Our guide Remi was amazing, super friendly and great with our kids, and very informative. He has a good sense of humor and also made sure everyone was comfortable. Nice to be in a small group. He told great stories and insights about the tower. We hardly waited at all in April 2024. I would recommend this tour and definitely feel like it was worth it.
Easy to book and get the tickets. They were great at contacting us when the meeting point had to be changed do to a marathon event. Our guide was great.
