5* GetYourGuide traveler – France, December 4, 2023 – Verified booking

Hello, I had the opportunity to live this experience with my mother and I loved it! It is a modern and fully glazed space located on the 56th floor of the Montparnasse tower and even with the fog it was magical ☺️I advise you to go there at sunset because you will have a 360-degree view on the capital. Inside, you will find numerous facilities that will allow you to explore the history of Paris before the construction of the tower! Don’t forget to visit the terrace with an overlooking view of the city. The duration of the visit is one hour plus or minus. Inside you also have a bar if you want to have a drink or a little aperitif with a view, especially in summer. ☺️ Entrance costs €18 per person but it’s definitely worth it! The duration of the visit is one hour plus or minus.

5* Stefan – Switzerland, November 30, 2023 – Verified booking

I can recommend everyone to visit the observation deck on the Tour Montparnasse when the weather is good. The best time is about 30 minutes before sunset. You can take great photos of the entire city and the Eiffel Tower day and night. It’s also not as crowded or expensive as the Eiffel Tower, but the view is just as good.

Great walk, slightly away from the most touristy areas. Our guide, Sheldon, was very knowledgeable and engaging, keeping not only adults entertained but also my daughters (teen and preteen), which is no small feat. Lots of interesting places and stories behind them on this walk. Highly recommended!
