Insightful Tour and Friendly Guide - Ana was a wonderful tour guide. She had great energy and kept us engaged even though it was freezing out. She provided a good amount of info about the Tower, answered our questions, and pointed out landmarks, while keeping the mood light and enjoyable. My college-aged kids and I had a great time. She also gave my daughter some quick tips on the area she will be staying for her study abroad program. Ana's tour was a highlight of the day.

Wonderful tour guide - The tour itself was wonderful. I cannot recommend City Wonders and the tour guide Ana enough. She went above and beyond our expectations. However, we almost missed the tour because the link on the viator email sent us to the wrong side of the Eiffel tower. This needs to be corrected.

Ana was a great guide! - The meeting location was nearby the tower. The other families struggled to followed directions about meeting time & location, but our guide was understanding. Ana gave us great info and was very pleasant.

Yes: Eiffel Steps - No: Cruise* - Ritu tbe guide was fantastic....... she was engaging, insightful and had a wealth of knowledge. The tour was very interesting. She managed her two staff like a pro and clearly knew her way around the staff and security at the tower. The guide takes you up the first flight of steps (cir. 325 - about 8 min) and when you reach this she shared some cool facts and stories. Afterwhich you then have to contìnue to the seond floor to (320 stairs) where you can catch the lift to the summit. This was disorganised and the life operators were moody. The guide is not with you. I spent around £200 for guide and access to the summit. I realize now i could have just brought tickets myself which woukd be 40% cheaper however the informatiom provided was great. The river cruise in comparison was a let down. It was lovely to be warm sitting inside but we struggled to understand our guide and the seating to be disorganized - people reserving seats for people who are upstairs etc. Very annoying and just need to ignore them. Cruise is very silent and not noisy due to the boat being electric, but the screaming child made up for that. We honestly could not hear or see or guide for the entire trip - only as the end before we stepped off thr boat. Cruise is a nice experience, just get to it sooner before it gets busy. Thanks
