GroupVerified bookingLast week5/5It was an extraordinary tour! The guide took us from the meeting point to the security checkpoint at the Eiffel Tower, chatting with us along the way and explaining the tower’s history since its construction, as well as Parisian architecture and other interesting facts. The climb to the top was wonderful and easy. Our guide, Aladin, was very friendly and completely transformed the experience—thank you.IInes Z
CoupleVerified booking2 weeks ago4/5Funny anecdotes and a solid knowledge of history from our tour guide, Alexandra. Good group size. Unfortunately, she suddenly disappeared on the second floor and didn't really say goodbye. But that was okay—we're adults, after all...PPaul G

Explore the Eiffel Tower on a 90-minute small-group guided tour by elevator, then visit Petit Palais with access to its permanent and temporary exhibitions.
Getting started
Start your day at the Eiffel Tower, where you meet your guide at the entrance and join a small-group of 10 to 20 guests. After your tickets are checked, you pass through the standard security screening and your guide explains how your reserved elevator access works for the level included in your option. Later, make your way to Petit Palais and use your confirmed ticket to enter the museum and proceed to the exhibition areas.
What to expect
Eiffel Tower
Experience Paris’s most famous landmark on a guided visit that combines reserved elevator access with time on the upper floors and 1st floor platforms.
Features
-
Join a 90-minute guided tour of the Eiffel Tower with an expert guide leading a small-group of 10 to 20 guests.
-
From the upper levels, look out over central Paris, including the Seine River, the Champs de Mars, and the wider city skyline while your guide points out major sights.
-
Hear stories and facts about the tower’s construction, history, and role in Paris as your guide tailors explanations to a small-group setting and answers questions along the way.
Petit Palais museum
Continue your Paris visit at Petit Palais, home to the City of Paris Museum of Fine Arts, where a single ticket covers both the main collections and the current temporary exhibition.
Features
-
Use your ticket for entry to Petit Palais so you can explore the museum building together with the permanent collections and the temporary exhibit in one visit.
-
View paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts from different periods as you move through the museum’s permanent galleries at your own pace.
-
Enjoy access to the permanent exhibitions, which showcase a range of fine arts and decorative pieces inside this Beaux-Arts pavilion from the 1900 exposition.

Wrapping up
Once the 90-minute guided portion at the Eiffel Tower ends, you are free to continue exploring its levels independently before heading off. At Petit Palais, you can spend as much time as you like in the permanent and temporary exhibition spaces, then leave the museum whenever it suits your schedule, with both attractions feasible to experience on the same day.
