Discover the Eiffel Tower as you’ve never seen it before!
A timeless symbol of Paris, the Eiffel Tower attracts millions of tourists from all over the world every year. However, ‘real’ Parisians don’t really take the time to stroll up to the top of the Iron Lady… With the return of fine weather, it’s the perfect opportunity to drop in and appreciate our city’s magnificent heritage.
A very popular landmark, the Eiffel Tower is undoubtedly the very symbol of Paris. And even if Parisians don’t pay much attention to it any more as they pass by the Champ de Mars, any opportunity is a good one to visit the Eiffel Tower! Paris Select has just the thing for you, whether you’re looking to rediscover the Tower on your own, with your family or in the company of friends from abroad.
The pitch? A 2-hour guided tour during which you first walk up the 704 steps to the 2nd-floor observation platform, before taking the elevator to the top. The 360-degree panoramic view of Paris is sure to impress!
How does it work? Once you’ve found your guide, you’ll begin climbing the 30 flights of stairs, while learning a host of anecdotes about Gustave Eiffel’s major work.
The big plus? By taking the stairs, you’ll be able to catch your breath during the few stops you’ll make, and above all: you’ll appreciate a side of the Eiffel Tower you’d never have seen if you’d taken the elevator!
On the 1st floor, it’s time for a well-deserved break. On the glass floor – a delight for the little ones – you’ll explore an interactive exhibition, before heading back up to the 2nd floor. Its original color, its size that changes with the seasons, its spotlights… You’ll (re)discover the history of the Eiffel Tower in the best possible way!
On the 2nd floor, between satisfaction and adrenalin, your guide will tell you all about the monuments visible from the promontory: the Sacré-Coeur, the Arc de Triomphe, the Champs-Élysées… A real history lesson with high added value.
The last stage of the tour: access to the top of the tower, via the elevator. At the top, you can explore Gustave Eiffel’s office and admire the breathtaking view over the whole city… Thrills guaranteed!
