This was an amazing way to bring the story of the Eiffel Tower to life! Viality Tours very kindly scheduled an extra tour to accommodate our limited time in Paris (Thank you!) - Vladina, our tour guide literally took us back in time to the late 1800s through a series of VR 360 animated views - that corresponded to the physical locations we were taken to near to the Eiffel Tower. It really allowed us to see the ghosts of the past. If you like history and can spare an hour when you visit the Eiffel Tower it will really bring your visit literally to life!!!!

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.
Frankly, a super immersive experience! Michel, our guide, was super welcoming and full of fascinating anecdotes. A big bravo to Michel and his wife who spent 3 years building this experience; the result is crazy. We rediscover the entire construction of the Eiffel Tower with insane precision, and knowing that these facts are directly validated by the Eiffel descendants themselves, that changes everything! I recommend it with my eyes closed and I am already looking forward to testing the other Viality Tour experiences.
Very informative experience led by Michel, the co-creator, who is extremely attentive to each participant.
For a first immersive visit , a real success: we go back in history in a fun way with Vladina who animates this visit very well. Very nice historical visit through the centuries. We are not bored for a minute. See you soon for the Eiffel Tower and all my encouragement to develop other sites.👍👍👍
A real success. The immersive route on the Eiffel Tower at the time of the World Fair is great. The work of our guide is project designer is simply exceptional. You are projected at that time, 360° view The images are truer than life. Every detail. You're in! Do not hesitate, a pure moment of pleasure.
The guided tour by Michel enlightened by virtual reality that transported us back in time. It's been a new experience for us. We hope to see this concept spread to other places. It's so illuminating. You're really immersed in the time, bluffing... We really recommend. In addition, Michel is very considerate and friendly. MERCI
After visiting the Louvre, you had to visit the Eiffel Tower. And once again the concept lived up to our expectations. This time we were with Michel and in a very small committee. The tour is fun, fun and always rich in discoveries. The work done is incredible and it’s a living visit, we don’t see time passing. Do not hesitate to go and test both especially Again thank you and warmly the next project
Thanks to our guide Michel who was kind enough to open a visit slot in the middle of winter and for our group of friends on short stay in Paris, we feasted! The immersive experience is breathtaking not only by the technique used but also by the precision of the details that allow us to discover the transformations of the Champ de Mars site 140 years ago, with the construction of the Eiffel Tower and the preparation of the universal exhibition, all "as if we were there"! Many THANKS to the VIALITY TOUR team for this exciting ride! Claire, Catherine, Marie, Agnes and Martine
Great moment of discovery of the Universal Exhibition period. Our charming guide Vladina took us with her in 1887. Simply recommended
Guide très sympathique, très à l'écoute et qui connaît parfaitement son sujet. Grande qualité de la VR...on voudrait rester dans cet univers et on est tristes de revenir à la réalité .A recommander absolument
A great experience with competent and knowledgeable people who share their respective passions, namely technique for Michel and comments for Vladina. I really recommend this experience
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 ;)
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. It’s a superb, very well documented experience. Thanks to Michel for his kindness, his comments and the photos sent after the activity. We recommend this activity.
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 !
It is a very nice experience to relive the universal exhibition of 1889 and the construction of the Eiffel Tower. Beautiful projection in the Belle Epoque!
That was fantastic! A very immersive experience that gives a new look at the Champ-de-Mars, literally and figuratively. I went with my wife and we didn't see time pass. Probably the best way to discover the visiting Eiffel Tower, both documentary and immersive.
Great time with my 16 year old son to relive the construction of the Eiffel Tower. Thank you to Vladina for your comments. I recommend this activity.
Great virtual reality experience totally in tune with the times. Really interesting to jump back, to find yourself projected into the past and live the moment thanks to the beautiful graphics. I recommend this adventure in time in which we discover the origins of the Eiffel Tower and its construction. All this with a great guide. Very nice teamwork. Bravo the realization of this beautiful project!!!
Thank you very much to Vladina, our guide of the day for this immersive experience. You can see it all with virtual reality and you’ve learned a lot about the Eiffel Tower and the 1889 World’s Fair. I recommend!
