Excellent
The only thing I would recommend as an improvement is over the ear headphones instead of in the ear ones.

Julie was wonderful and I learned so much. I had no idea we were going to learn anything about the French Revolution as well. Very great tour

The tour was nice. Having the skip the line option and early entry was worth the price to me, particularly since I could stay inside and see the pets of the tower that most interested me after the tour completed.
