Eiffel Tower Dinner Experience & Sightseeing Seine River Cruise

Had a great time, would not hesitate to do this on my next visit to Paris, but if you go around the same time as I did (end of january) wrap up warm. The Dinner in the Eiffel tower was delicious and the cruise on the Seine with all the lights of Paris was worth it too, have to say a big thankyou to the staff of Viator for their organisation and guides.

Everything was good until the meal, the food was ok (not a 3 course) ham and cheese board and then a pudding. Then I had a tea at the end and the waiter poured boiling hot water on my leg! My leg is very painful and let our evening down! He did not seem to fussed about this either!!

Advertisement was VERY misleading. We expected a guided tour. Our tour guide walked us to the Eiffel Tower and pointed to the entrance we would go to after the boat tour. He then, walked us to the boat and left. After the cruise, We walked to the Eiffel Tower alone. No one in our group knew where to go . Once we found the restaurant, we were very disappointed in the “3 course dinner”. It was a glass of wine, meat, and cheese. Don’t waste your money. Pre book the skip the line Eiffel Tower ticket and take a boat ride at night. There are plenty of boats, you have options.

We booked this tour for our first night in Paris. The instructions provided stated to meet at the Eiffel Tower at 6:30 pm, which we did, however, given some construction and entry issues, we didn’t make it to the gate until 6:40 pm. We were told that we needed to walk “a short walk” to the office for our vouchers. We took the .75 mile walk in the freezing cold and were told that we missed the river cruise as that was supposed to be first, but that we would receive a voucher to take our cruise at another time of our choosing. We were instructed to walk to the Pier to meet up with the group and get that voucher, which we did. We were then told that we needed to kill some time before the boat arrived and we could go to the tower. We were a bit confused as to why the office just didn’t give us a voucher and tell us to meet the group at 8:00 and we would have saved a lot of headache and trouble. We finally got to the tower and were allowed access and luckily we were corralled in the “correct line” since most of our group was In a different line. We were told that they wouldn’t be going to the observation deck and advised us to go and then go to the restaurant. The tower was amazing, the food served was delicious and the service was good (although a little over the top at times). I do think this could have been better arranged but all in all this was a favorite for us during our trip to Paris. We took the river cruise our last night in Paris and that was an amazing experience as well.

Definitely do not recommend this tour. The 1 hour boat ride was disaster, we were crowded on to a boat with around 300 other people if you were lucky enough to get a window seat you might see something. We then made our way for the 3 course dinner at the effiel tower in small dome it was a complete joke, it was unorganised and crowded we sat at a high bar type table looking out the dome. The 3 course meal consisted of small green salad in a paper bowl, small baked potato, a cheese board for 2 and desert. The whole tour was torture and completely unacceptable for the price. I have used viator many times and there tours are usually amazing extremely disappointed.

The company service was good and on time. The Siene River experience was ok, we really enjoyed it. The Eiffel Tower and Dinner was a disaster. What we received can't be named "dinner"; it was a table of hams and cheese. What a deception! After dinner, we can't access 2 floor level because the elevator won't make any more up trips; nobody told me before. I am really dissapointed with this service.

No Improvision for rain Our guide Julianna left us for dead at the Eiffel Tower becauit was raining We were not Notified that the Restaurant was under renovation So we had a downgraded meal Not a menu that you would expect at a Restaurant Definitely not worthy of the money paid Ripoff Why weren’t we notified of the renovations and given an option as to we would like a Cold Platter in a Freezing Plastic Bubble Definitely not worth the money You Need to fix up your act Viator Because we will be spreading the word 👎👎👎👎

I purchased tickets for through Viator (great company) for dinner on top floor, private tour and boat cruise, over $400.00. A couple of days before arriving in Paris I received an email saying restaurant was closed and they would offer another. I called, emailed and never heard a thing. When I arrived there was no private tour, offered a buffet river cruise. Staff snotty. I want a refund from Viator asap

This is a fantastic package, you do the Eiffel Tower visit followed by a cruise and dinner on the Siene. Try and book directly with the tour operator otherwise you will be sat with a bunch of people who you don’t know. Remember it’s all about the romance😊

So I originally booked this because it was a tour of the Eiffel Tower and dinner in one of the restaurants on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower. I booked this back in April for $200 a person and in July I got an email saying that both restaurants were being refurbished and the dinner was being changed to a dinner cruise on the Seine. Ok, so I assumed that I would be refunded because it couldn’t be anywhere near the same price as eating a beautiful dinner in the Eiffel Tower...apparently I was wrong. I emailed them and they said it was the same price....ok sure. Fast forward to this last week. We went on the tour of the Eiffel Tower: there was no tour it was a here’s your ticket, here’s the line , be back at 7:30 to go to dinner...ok, awesome. So we explored the tower (didn’t even get to go to the very top that was an additional price and then met our group for the dinner cruise. Walked to the port from the Eiffel Tower, all around ten minutes and waited till around 8:00 to actually board the boat. Dinner itself was good, three courses including a glass of Kir Royale pink champagne and red and white wines. They even sang my sister happy birthday. After dinner we went outside to see some of the famous attractions including the Louvre, Notre Dame, and the French version of the Statue of Liberty. The tour was amazing but when I added it up the total amount didn’t add up to $202.00 per person. At most both would have 160 if booked separate or that specific tour in itself. The Eiffel Tower tour was 16.40 euros and the cruise at most 89.00 so why was I still charged $406?
