This Paris City Tour stop takes you to France’s most iconic landmark: the Eiffel Tower. Inaugurated in 1889 for the World’s Fair and the centenary of the French Revolution, this wrought-iron masterpiece designed by Gustave Eiffel became a symbol of industrial progress. Standing 300 meters tall (324 with the antenna), it was the tallest structure in the world for over 40 years. Today, it is the most visited paid monument on the planet, attracting over 7 million visitors each year. Its silhouette, set along the Seine, defines the Paris skyline.
