Louvre & Eiffel Tower Tour
Description
This full tour of Paris includes a cruise on the Seine, skip-the-line entry to the Louvre Museum, and a climb to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower.
Tour Details
At the scheduled time, we'll meet in front of the Arc de Triomphe de Carrousel. An English-speaking escort will take you to the Mona Lisa room of the Louvre Museum. Upon arrival, you will receive the entrance ticket to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower and the ticket for the Seine River cruise. The escort will confirm the respective times for both experiences on the day of the activity.
You can then explore the Louvre Museum at your leisure, viewing significant works such as the Venus de Milo and Jacques-Louis David’s “Coronation of Napoleon.” Lunch will be on your own in central Paris.
In the afternoon, proceed to Place du Sydney for access to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, which provides a panoramic view of Paris. Your ticket also includes access to the observation deck on the first floor of the Eiffel Tower, 57 meters (187 feet) above sea level.
After visiting the Eiffel Tower, you will go to the pier at the foot of the Eiffel Tower for a romantic cruise on the Seine River, featuring recorded commentary in English. Highlights include Notre-Dame Cathedral and Alexandre III bridge. After an hour’s cruise, the tour concludes back at the departure pier, totaling 6 hours.
