Private Eiffel Tower Summit and Seine River Cruise Tour
Ascend to the third floor of Paris's most iconic monument, then drift along the Seine on a guided river cruise.
This private Eiffel Tower tour takes you all the way to the third floor of the world's most recognized iron structure, paired with a one-hour Seine River cruise and a classic Parisian crepe tasting. Private transportation picks you up directly from your hotel, removing the guesswork from navigating Paris on your own.
The Eiffel Tower was constructed by Gustave Eiffel for the 1889 Exposition Universelle, marking the centenary of the French Revolution. Built in just over two years, it stood as a defining achievement of 19th-century engineering and remains France's most visited paid monument, drawing close to seven million visitors annually.
With a private guide on hand, you receive context and historical insight that a self-guided visit simply cannot offer. The tour is structured so that each segment flows naturally into the next, from the tower ascent to the riverside cruise, with crepe tasting woven in along the way.
Two of the five hours are allocated to private hotel pickup and drop-off, ensuring a seamless and unhurried experience from start to finish. This format is particularly suited to travelers who have limited time in Paris and want to cover the most iconic experiences without logistical stress.
