What a delightful experience - Vladina was an amazing and extremely friendly guide, with a remarkable ability to welcome her guests. The experience (45-50 minutes) )was extremely agreeable, extremely educational, and highly recommended. Virtual reality is an amazing technology and this tour allows for a great understanding of the development of the Eiffel Tower and its logistics, including political and historical perspectives. It was money very well spent.

Great, great - Experiencing the construction of the Eiffel Tower and finding yourself in the middle of the 1989 Universal Exhibition, there is no better way to learn history. The guide Michel, in addition to being friendly, knows his subject very well and in addition to teaching us the history, shares anecdotes with us.
We feel completely safe, even wearing a helmet in the middle of the Champ de Mars, the guide is watching ;)

Very nice virtual reality experience at the foot of the Eiffel Tower - Virtual reality at the foot of the Eiffel Tower allows you to watch several periods of the construction of the Tower and the palaces of the Universal Exhibition of 1889.

To see the Eiffel Tower differently! - Superb experience, with an experienced, attentive and very friendly guide. The moments in virtual reality are stunning and truly immersive, I regret that they don't last longer! The service is a little expensive but offers a truly unique and high quality experience, so the investment is worth it.
We receive a reminder message a little before the visit (after a first purchase confirmation message) to tell us the time and place of meeting, this gives us confidence and we really want to be there !
