4.6/5 stars – based on 1843 reviews
Great alternative to the Eiffel Tower. Tower was booked so thought this would be a good second best. Actually loved it, calm atmosphere, great views and no crowds – what’s not to like?
Tim – United Kingdom
The tower visit is very interesting, but there is only one main view, the one the tour Eiffel. This side of the building is interrupted in the middle by a restaurant and leaves a small place that is always full. The video is nice and interesting.
Marcus – Germany
Beautiful view! Totally worth it!
