When you think of Paris, the Eiffel Tower and the Seine River are two of the first things that come to mind. On this tour, you'll enjoy both with a guided, special access visit to the Eiffel Tower and a flexible cruise along the Seine.
Begin your tour with a walk through the picturesque Trocadéro gardens offering amazing views of the Eiffel Tower and the city beyond. Your expert guide will share information about its colorful history and how, despite all the efforts to stop construction, the tower became a much-loved part of the Paris skyline.
Upon our arrival at the Eiffel Tower, your guide will whisk you past the famously long general entrance lines, potentially saving hours of waiting time. You will ascend to the second floor and from here, have complete freedom to spend as long as you like exploring inside. At the conclusion of your visit to the second floor, your guide can accompany you to the river cruise departure point, or you can choose to continue on your own. It’s up to you!
Your Paris experience includes an open ticket for an hour-long Seine river cruise, and you can board at the time of your choosing – the dock is just 200 meters from the base of the Eiffel Tower. Your cruise ticket is pre-booked, meaning you’ll skip the ticket line here as well! You’ll see the Louvre, Notre Dame, the Conciergerie and much more. After taking in the birds-eye views from the Eiffel Tower, the close-up views offered on the cruise are the perfect complement.
If you are looking for a flexible and unique way to experience Paris’ most important sights, this exclusively designed Eiffel Tower and Seine river cruise tour is for you!
Due to increased security measures at many attractions some lines may form on 'Special Access' tours.
This is possible, depending on the tour you have booked. Both our “VIP Eiffel Tower tour with Seine Champagne Cruise” and our “Moulin Rouge with Skip the Line Eiffel Tower and Seine River Cruise Experience” start with the Seine River cruise, which means that the cruise can only be done at that time. However, for our other Eiffel Tower tours with Seine River cruise, your guide will give you the tickets for the cruise on the day of your tour and you will able to use them at a later stage during your stay. Tickets for the cruise are distributed once the the Eiffel Tower portion of the tour is complete.
The guide will not be able to meet you directly at the Eiffel Tower. You will receive a voucher with clear instructions on how to reach the meeting point and you can contact our Customer Care Team if you have any questions or require further directions
