For the Evening Eiffel Tower Tour with Summit Access and Seine Champagne Cruise, your English-speaking guide will be waiting for you on the steps of the Palais de Chaillot, at the Trocadero Plaza.
Start with a stroll in the beautiful Trocadero Gardens which offer a spectacular view of the Eiffel Tower. The garden is the best place to take those memorable pictures with the iconic structure as your backdrop. Meanwhile, your guide will regale you with tales of the Eiffel Tower, its colourful history and how, despite all the efforts to stop construction and then destroy it, the tower emerged victorious and became the much-loved emblem of Paris.
Next, cruise along the River Seine and appreciate the beauty of the city and its picturesque monuments and charming bridges. Sip a complementary glass of champagne as you watch the sun set and the city waking up to sparkling lights. The best Seine river cruise company has been handpicked so that you get the best experience. The much-coveted front of the cruise boat, which offers the very best views, will be closed off just for this group tour.
Watch the city pass by as you gaze at some of the famous Parisian structures such as the Louvre, Notre Dame and the Île de la Cité. Your guide will point out the famous sites along the way and ensure that you enjoy your hour long boat ride.
After the boat ride, visit the marvelous Eiffel Tower. This tour lets you skip those notoriously long queues and takes you straight inside, so that you do not waste your valuable time. In the evening, the tower is even more magical as it turns into a lighthouse illuminating a double searchlight, and effervescent lights flicker on the gridlines of the entire structure for the first 10 minutes of every hour.
Your guide will lead you through the tower up to the second floor while sharing stories and anecdotes along the way. You will get access to the top floor of the Eiffel Tower, a short elevator ride, with the pre-booked entrance ticket. You will have plenty of time to admire the splendid view from the summit.
