Guidekin's take

A private tour for your party combines a guided elevator ascent to the Eiffel Tower's second floor with summit access.

Reserved timed-entry tickets are included, but weather or security can close the summit, with a partial refund in that case. 4.72 from 106 reviews at €220 per person for 1h–2h.

In our comparison: #17 of 25 in Eiffel Tower Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
