Skip-the-line Eiffel Tower 3rd Floor Summit Ticket with Audio Guide

Upgrade your Paris trip with a 3rd-floor Summit ticket. With priority access, you’ll skip the hassle and head to the very top of the Iron Lady. Enjoy breathtaking, bird's-eye views of the Seine, the Louvre, and the city’s historic heart from the ultimate vantage point.

The Iron Lady: From Universal Exhibit to Global Icon

Originally built by Gustave Eiffel for the 1889 World’s Fair, this "temporary" monument is now Paris’s most legendary landmark, welcoming over 7 million visitors annually.

Begin your ascent on the first floor, where you can walk across the spectacular glass floor 57 meters above the ground—a thrilling way to experience the tower's intricate iron architecture. Continue to the second level at 115 meters high to witness a stunning 360° panorama. From here, you’ll easily spot the golden dome of Les Invalides, the white arches of Sacré-Cœur, and the grand Arc de Triomphe.

For the ultimate finale, ascend to the Summit. At 276 meters above the city, the bustle of Paris fades into a serene, bird’s-eye view of the Louvre, Musée d'Orsay, and the historic bridges of the Seine. Don't miss a peek into Gustave Eiffel’s restored office or the 1889 summit model. To enrich your journey, use our audio pen or mobile app to uncover the fascinating history behind every rivet.
