Joanne_C, Oct 2023

Bc if Tina we were able to do boat ride but not City your . Again they said we can get refunded . They were very apologetic and courteous otherwise . It was an unfortunate experience bc of that .
Crowded At The Top

The view from the top is incredible once you could wedge your way through the crowd to get near the fence to take pictures
Not as described
Lesley_Z, Aug 2023
This trip was not what it advertised. The Overview literally says, "Don’t miss the views of Paris from the Eiffel Tower at night" -they sent us to the Tower first AT 2:30pm!! This was the whole reason I booked the tour. :( I was not able to find times ANYwhere my receipt, nor ANYwhere on the Viator site. This proved to be very unfortunate because the description said "4 hours approx" and began at 2:15. Then we find out the bus tour part (1 hour) does not even begin until 6:00pm, so we could not even enjoy that part of our tour package as we had dinner reservations (I had 7:00 reserved near by since 2:15 + 4 hours = 6:15ish. I figured 7:00 was a safe bet.) The only live tour guide was at the meeting point; he gave us the tickets for the Tower and boat, gave an address where to meet the bus, walked us 1 block to the Tower (as if we couldn't find the Eiffel Tower on our own??), then he left. It was not a "Tour" at all. Pretty disappointed overall- we could have easily done these activities without giving Viator money to essentially print tickets for us to use.
Unfortunate Experience. Avoid this tour
Eric_G, Jul 2023
I don't normally write these, but yeah the guide was uninterested and didn't give any information at all to the group. Unorganized and the river cruise and bus tour are not even part of a tour. They simply give you tickets for these two with zero interaction nor interesing information. I didn't even finish the tour since it left such a bad taste in my mouth. I requested a refund for the terrible experience, and the refund was denied. It looks like customer service is not a priority for this company. Or at the very least, this specific tour and staff.
Eiffel Tower, City Bus Tour and Seine River Cruise
Rhonda_L, Jul 2023
We were a family of 5, 2 adults and 3 grandchildren visiting Paris. Everyone enjoyed seeing the Eiffel tower, going on the bus tour and taking a very relaxing boat cruise on the Seine River. This activity was enjoyed by all.
Easy!
Juliana_P, Jun 2023
Meeting place is clearly marked for all activities. Guides are very kind. City tour audio could be better. Sometimes you don’t know what area you are in.
Great overall experience
Maria_A, Jun 2023
I wish we could have just been sent our tickets to the Eiffel Tower and the boat tour. We didn't realize the city tour was a bus tour and separate from the boat tour. Also that it was not going to start until 4 hours after the "tour" started (not a tour because you meet and get your ticket then it's Eiffel Tower and boat on your own, but we actually preferred it that way to what we expected). We got what we wanted and skipped the bus and bus tours don't appeal to our group.
Worst tour ever.
PETER_T, May 2023
Finishing the tour. Not a tour at all. We’re left to our own devices. Would definitely have been better off just doing the sections yourself. No help, no guides.
Didn’t get what we paid for
Deborah_B, Jan 2023
The fact we did NOT get what we paid for was the most disappointing memory of this experience. The time was changed and we were told we couldn’t do the tour.. I stood my ground with the rude guide and demanded either my money back or the tickets… we got the tickets. The 3rd floor which we paid to go up to was closed, we also missed out on the coach ride, the boat ride was good, but even though we paid to avoid the queues we still had to queue for almost an hour at the boat before we got on and the same at the Eiffel Tower. We only got to the 2nd floor on the tower and it was pouring rain, so we couldn’t see much. By the time we were on the boat at 7pm the 3rd floor was opened up - too late for us. So we wasted quite a lot of money and had our once in a lifetime visit to the Eiffel Tower marred by rude guides and the fact we didn’t get what we paid for.
Great experience
Julio_F, May 2022
Our guide was On time and took us directly to the gate. Only a small line to get on the elevator. Tower was awesome, Tibet Cruise was excellent and informational.
Do not book
Emily_L, Apr 2022
Extremely unorganized, the entire experience wasn’t conducted how it was listed out on the booking. There was no guide, they basically just gave us our tickets and told us to go on our own. Complete waste of money.
They cancelled summit and did not informed
Charu_S, Mar 2020
It was cancelled already and you did not informed.we went on location and then the office person informed that it is cancelled already. I have emailed to you also regarding this issue so please look into this matter. Please refund money asap.

Magical
Margarita_D, Nov 2019
Paris is a magical city and this evening cruise was exceptional. The lights, the sites, and the people are all lovely. The Eiffel tower glimmers and sparkles, the Seine cruise is romantic and soothing. Just being there and traveling through history, in a word Incredible.

Really organized guide. Night bus tour left at 11. We were not able to stay as the next day we had an amazing tour of Monet's House and Gardens, wonderful lunch and your of Versailles. Wish our bus tour could have been honored another night this week
Not good and is below average !
Navigate53330253050, Oct 2019
Boat ride expected to be great !! But did not even get a seat as it was already been occupied by different groups !
Fantastic
Theodore_B, Sep 2019
One of the highlights of our visit to Paris. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole tour. The cruise was beautiful. The bus ride was informational, and the Eiffel Tower was spectacular.
A great way to see the city
Karen_G, Sep 2019
My one criticism: our guide new there were 3 people using canes. It would've been much appreciated if he asked the boat crew to save seats for us, so we wouldn't tackle the stairs to find no seats. The same thing on the bus. We had to walk to the back of the bus, as even the handicap seats were taken by other people.
Seine River Cruise/Paris Lights/ Eiffel Tower
Lesley_A, Aug 2019
Lots of FAST walking involved from the tour office to the river, and from the bus to the tower. If you're not fit, or have a pram or children, be warned. The earpiece in the bus didn't work, so luckily the river cruise was well commentated, or I wouldn't have known what I was looking at. Our guide left us at the tower, which would have been fine until we realised half of the group tickets were for a later time slot, so we had to wait in line after all. The actual tour is fabulous, but the execution was lacking.
