Summit was closed due to a technical defect, can't do anything about it. Tour guide was nice, but could have been much more enthusiastic or fun. Had no added value.

Our guide Ana was outstanding, she spoke slowly while answering every question with a smile and kindness. She explained the history of the Eifel Tower and the major monuments in Paris while also giving us very specific directions on what to see. She was always attentive to each person in the group especially my 8-year-old daughter. I highly recommend this guide because it was a wonderful experience far beyond our expectations. Thank you Ana!!!

Fondation Louis Vuitton

Step into the realm of one of the 20th century's most influential artists at the Fondation Louis Vuitton's "Ellsworth Kelly – Shapes and Colors, 1949–2015" exhibition. Marking Kelly's centenary, this is France's premier comprehensive display of his work, featuring over 100 pieces. A must-see for art aficionados!

The exhibition traces Kelly's exploration of shape, color, line, and space through key works from pivotal periods in his career. Spanning two floors, the collection showcases a variety of pieces that highlight the apparent simplicity yet profound complexity of Kelly's artistic expression. Notable among them is Yellow Curve (1990), Kelly's groundbreaking large-scale floor painting, making its European debut since its creation in 1990.

Eiffel Tower guided tour

Go on a guided tour of the iconic Eiffel Tower, featuring elevator access to either the Summit or 2nd floor. Accompanied by an English-speaking guide, your small group of 20 guests or fewer will delve into the tower's fascinating history and uncover lesser-known secrets.

Ascend to the 2nd floor via elevator, rising 377 feet above ground level, and behold breathtaking panoramic views of Paris. Keep an eye out for renowned landmarks such as the Champs-Élysées, the gothic Notre Dame Cathedral, and the majestic Arc de Triomphe.

Descend to the 1st floor and experience the thrill of standing atop the suspended glass floor, offering mesmerizing views of the streets and surrounding park below.
