How can you come to Paris and not see the Eiffel Tower... I mean so cool. I really don't understand why you're looking at reviews for this place honestly, it's just somewhere you just have to go see while you're here. To put it most generally it's a big monument that looks like a caged tower and it sparkles at night!
Landmark in Paris, France... I've visited this famous piece of architecture a few times before I knew about Yelp. Back in 2000, I was here with my former co-worker. She didn't want to visit because there was a bomb threat. I told her that it's just a threat. How many miles and hours did we fly to just stay in the hotel room? She ended up walking outside with me... LOL! Our friend dropped us off this time to just get photos. He and his wife drove around the block and picked us up in-between stops. Parking is quite the challenge here! Be on your best behavior... some guards with guns marched past us!
I had a 3 pm reserved ticket To The Top and arrived 30 minutes early. I'm glad I did because they were running behind schedule. Once On Top I was almost 1,000 feet above ground and the views were dramatic. One level is fully enclosed behind large windows and the level above is open air with large metal screens for protection. That day the wind was calm so it was very pleasant to be on that level. On the open air level you can buy a glass of champagne and macarons to celebrate if you wish. Above you the tower rises for about another 100 feet for radio antennas, etc. It costs extra to go To The Top and it is worth it. If you do, go there first and then work your way down to the 2nd and then 1st levels. You can only access The Top by elevator. The 2nd level (400 feet) and 1st level (200 feet) are accessible by elevator and stairway. Remember it's much easier going downhill than uphill. By the way, the stairs are open air but enclosed with metal screens making it impossible for you to fall off. If you are on the 1st level and want to exit it is faster to do so by stairs rather than waiting on the elevator. There are upscale restaurants on the 1st and 2nd levels and there are chairs that you can sit on and enjoy the view. Actually, the famous French landmarks are better seen from the 2nd level than The Top. There are 2 Metro stations within less than 10 minute walking distance to the Tower so getting here is easy. It amazes me that this HUGE landmark was originally designed to be a temporary structure only, They were suppose to take it down but decided it was too popular.
THE GOOD ---------------- + SPECTACULAR and breath-taking 360 degree view of the entireeeeeee city of Paris! No part of Paris is unseen from here. + Different options for visiting the tower - (1) visit the base for free (2) pay to take the lift/walk up to the 2nd floor (3) pay to take the lift allllllll the way to the top - BUT, EVERYONE needs to go through the security checkpoint. No exceptions. + Worth every penny to visit the top of the tower to view the city! Don't just take photos outside or in front of the tower. Go for the full experience! THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - If you have accessibility needs or have a stroller, unfortunately, you will need to go up some steps before you reach the elevators to take you further up the tower. Not a lot steps, but definitely a few staircases. - If you buy tickets the day of your visit, waits can reach 1-2 hours, so try to buy them beforehand if you can! MIXED THOUGHTS --------------------------- = Nada. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS ------------------------------------- = As expected, it gets busy on the different levels, especially the higher ones, but it's not THAT bad. It's typical tourist attraction crowds.
I can't believe I'm finally standing in front of the Eiffel Tower! It's just as beautiful as I imagined it! And apparently at night they have it all lit up!
I could not let my first trip to Paris go by without visiting the Eiffel Tower. I mean, it's a structure that is engrained in history and pop culture, and synonymous with the city of Paris. That being said, I decided to research the different types of visits that the tower offered and plan my visit. The tower offers several ways to climb it - tickets are available to either the first/second floor as well at the summit. If you choose the former, you can then choose to climb it via stairs or lift; if you choose to go to the summit then a lift is your only option. Tickets sell out rather quickly online, but you can also try to purchase them in person. Nevertheless, I don't like leaving things up to chance so I purchased what was available to me online - tickets to the first/second floor via stairs. It's about 600 or so stairs to make it to the second floor of the tower. Along the way, there's a stop on the first floor where you can take pictures; there's also some seating areas as well as a cafe. The second floor repeats this, though there is also a gift shop here. They also have fun facts about the tower scattered throughout as well as plenty of view points. Personally, I thought the views from the first/second floor were high enough - I was snapping away. As far as the tower itself, it's definitely a sight to see in person - massive and intricately structured, I found myself just staring at it multiple times. My only regret (if you can call it) is not seeing at night up close, this is definitely something I would want to do my next time in Paris. Overall though, the Eiffel Tower is definitely worth checking out at least one during your Paris adventures.
Wow The Eiffel Tower is amazing but to see it in person is just incredible. It is even more amazing in person and fascinating as well. The tower was completed in 1889. There were many who were opposed of it being built but now the tower is adored. We purchased ticket hubby and I to the Summer which is the very top and we were just amazed at the beauty of the tower and of Spain ! Now it does get very crowded and you do get a bit crammed but otherwise anyone visiting Paris must come see the Eiffel Tower
La Tour Eiffel or the Eiffel Tower is one of the most landmarks in the world, and it is truly an iconic symbol of the French city line. When you're close to the tower, the photos aren't as beautiful as when you take a photo with the tower in the background. A few spots that are great to take photos with the Eiffel tower is from Trocadero or the bridge at Pont D'Iena for a straight short or at the bridge at Pont De l'Alma for a diagonal shot. We got to enjoy the view of the Eiffel Tower on multiple occasions as we explored the city. We witness its' charm from the day light hours and at night. We discovered that the tower sparkles at night on the hour for 5 minutes. One night we noticed it sparkled from 9:00-9:05pm and then our theory was confirmed when we saw it sparkle again from 11:00-11:05pm. What a treat! I recommend making time to visit both during the morning and at night. The Eiffel Tower is stunning and I feel like the day and the night has different charms to it.
When in Paris, you must visit the Eiffel Tower, both during the daytime and at night! The structure is massive close-up! At night if you take a boat ride along the Seine River, you'll get to see the tower pretty close-up and brightly lit. It's quite mesmerizing.
Is it touristy? Yes. Is it crowded? Yes. Is it worth it? YES!!!! My 4th time being in Paris and still love seeing this beautiful metal art piece. During the day... it's magnificent. During the night... ohhhh it's spectacular! I didn't go up this time, went in 2015... the view is beautiful but you do get better city view from Galleries de Lafayette rooftop. You can see the Eiffel Tower from plenty of hotels... so be sure to time it right... and watch the sparkle at 8pm, 9pm, 10pm, 11pm... it only sparkles for 5 minutes... so be ready!
As sad as it is, whenever I think about the Eiffel tower I can't help but think about Franz Reichelt. He was a French tailor and inventor and in 1912 he jumped off the first platform of the Eiffel to test a homemade, wearable parachute. You can imagine how that went. However, I have the utmost respect for Franz. You can't knock the hustle. Bro was really about that life and had an unparalleled self belief, rivaled only by Vegeta. A moment of silence for big Franz please.............................. My gf and I came to the Eiffel Tower, not to jump off, but with a baguette and a bottle of red wine like the good little tourists we are. I was draped in a red beret and a 80% cashmere scarf that I had picked up from a tourist stand nearby for 8 euro. It was at this moment I realized that if I ever needed to go into the witness protection program I could blend in out here pretty easily... We drank our wine and ripped into the baguette, and had a nice little moment. It's nice to just press pause every now and then and appreciate moments. My girlfriend ended up keeping this cork, attached a magnet to it, and hung it on the fridge. Beast... gonna start keeping corks like this from all major life events and moments. I sat there, half a bottle of red wine deep, thinking "damn bro really jumped off that and thought he would be good... talk about betting on yourself. He has all my respect." RIP FRANZ!

This was the first tourist trap we visited after checking into our hotel in Paris. The Eiffel Tower is a must see for anyone visiting Paris. It was even more amazing then we thought it would be. Just stay away from their gift shops on the way down. They are charging around $100 Euros for a shirt. Crazy prices sons pay while they're "Eiffle Drunk" from being there, the heights of the tower or too much champagne consumed on the Summit level. What else can I say. It's the Elvis of tourism. It's the picture of France even though the French see it as a Prop in the background. We all loved it. Make sure you go to the Summit. The 2nd floor pictures may be more definable but go to the top!!! It's the f@ck'n EiffleTower. Go to the top and have a couple of glasses of Champagne!!!! Enjoy! Highly recommend.
Absolutely magical experience. The Eiffel Tower at night is breathtaking, with stunning views of Paris and the Seine. Our guide was amazing -- she truly knew what she was doing, very knowledgeable, kind, and extremely helpful. Her great attitude made the whole experience even better. A must-do when you're in Paris
If I could sum up my experience in one word it would be WOW! We came to the Eiffel Tower on a Friday evening and were blown away. To get into the Eiffel Tower and to access the tower itself (on top/under) you will need to go through security screening. Security screening included an x ray of bags and walking through a metal detector. To go under the Eiffel Tower, there was no cost. Once you were under the Eiffel Tower there were stands to purchase treats which included croissants, coffee, and snacks. To go on top of the Eiffel Tower, you had to pay money. We purchased tickets to use the lift to very top which included the second floor and top floor for approximately €37. On the second floor, there was a panoramic view of the city along with gift shops, restaurants, and tapas options. We personally selected Madame Brasserie (one of two high end restaurants). On the top floor, you got a 360 view of the city along with Eiffel's apartment. The top had options to purchase champagne, macarons, or other treats. It was crowded, however, everyone wanted to notice and embrace the beauty of the city. There was also an announcement sharing to be aware of pick pockets, but if you were aware of your surroundings, it was not an issue (just like everywhere, remain diligent and aware). Our experience was beautiful and I can't wait to return. read more
Overview: a classic, must-see landmark in Paris ---- Very beautiful landmark and prettier if you see it light up at night. The tower only sparkles when it's dark enough outside to see it. When it's the spring/summer the sun sets very late at night so when I was there, the Eiffel Tower first sparkled at 10pm! We didn't know that, so we arrived around 8pm and waited 2 hours. It then started to rain and we shared one umbrella between 4 people. There are lots of people walking around trying to sell you stuff can be very annoying especially if you came there early and they keep asking you. They walk around with small trinkets, some with drinks like wine, blankets, and even umbrellas when it started to rain. There are lots of people on the grassy field in front of the tower having picnics and waiting for the tower to light up as well. The walk from the metro wasn't too long, but also wasn't that short, but it's Paris so be prepared to walk for everything! It beautiful and was worth the walking, waiting, and being rained on. ---- Overall: beautifully lit up at the beginning of the hour after the sun goes down, for us it was at 10pm! Be prepared to walk and wait, enjoy the views and atmosphere with others waiting to see the pretty lights read more

I can't think of a public structure that evokes more of a visceral response than the Eiffel Tower. It defines Paris for all of us who know the city mostly from Hollywood movies and travel videos. It epitomizes the swooning romanticism and engineering ingenuity upon which Paris bases its global reputation. And you know what? Its intended magic worked on us. Jamie W and I decided to buy advance tickets when we decided to vacation in Paris. The last time we came here was on a quickie Chunnel trip from London. Back then, when we walked under the tower, we were ambushed by sidewalk vendors, wristband scammers, and failed pickpockets. We escaped quickly. The situation seemed much better this time because first, there was a security check before we could enter the tower grounds. Second, we made our reservation for 9:30PM because we wanted to see the sparkling lights as well as the nighttime views. The combination must've warded off the solicitors because we got to the entry gate without incident. Without a burning desire to go all the way to the top, we went for the Second Floor access tickets for 41€ each. We heard the top was unbearably crowded and that the views were not all that different from those from the second floor. Boarding the diagonal elevator (Video 3), we arrived on the second floor in minutes and navigated the platform with relative ease. The views were striking with the City of Lights moniker well earned (Video 1). Our walkabout was brief, and we chose to walk down by choice. Was it worth the effort and cost? Definitely. The best views were of the tower itself whether we were underneath it or just a few yards away. After sunset, the lights on the tower twinkle at the top of the hour for five minutes, and that magical image was well worth the wait (Video 2). It seemed photographing the tower was not only a predictable recurrence but the inevitable consequence of capturing such an iconic symbol, whether from the Trocadéro, the top of the Arc de Triomphe, or department store rooftops.

The Eiffel Tower is the ultimate Paris landmark and truly lives up to the hype. It's stunning during the day and absolutely breathtaking once you're at the top....the views are unforgettable. Whether you admire it from afar or take in the city from the viewing platforms, it's an experience you'll never forget. It is very popular, so expect lines for tickets, security, and the lifts. Booking in advance is definitely the way to go. A must-see at least once in your lifetime! read more

2nd time here; 1st time 10 years ago. Really beautiful views from the summit but better photos from the 2nd floor. First sparkling lights at 9 pm and then on the hour every hour after that but not sure when it stops. Trancadero was an excellent spot for photos of the tower. Gift shop was overpriced but I bought a jellycat plush croissant. Windows on summit floor enclosed area need to be cleaned. Nice that they had a comparison of all the world's tallest structures on this viewing platform. Need to get there about 30 min earlier than timer ticket and get tickets in advance. Can't do stairs and elevator for summit. Only for 2nd floor can you do the combo or just elevator. read more
This was amazing to see and definitely a bucket list item! The tower has free wifi as a perk. We went up during the afternoon and came back at night to see it sparkle. So worth it! Great views during the day and the gift shop seemed to have reasonable prices. One downside was that one of the elevators broke while waiting in line to come back down, so it was easier to walk down than waiting for the one other elevator (you can also either walk up or take the elevator). Would have loved to go up at night or see it turn pink 2025 #63 read more
Plan in advance and you get to do anything you want... So be ready! Going to the Eiffel Tower and experiencing what it's like to see Paris from this view is outstanding. From every angle, it's epic! On a sunny day it's even better! read more
La Tour Eiffel was completed in 1889 for the World's Fair and was supposed to be dismantled 20-40 years after, but fate had other plans. The wrought iron tower is an architectural marvel and there is just something about seeing it that warms the heart; there's no mistaking that you're not in Kansas anymore but in the grand City of Light . Its a must see. See it during the night and the day. Both are very different experiences. With that being said, so much has changed since my first visit in 1985 and subsequent visits throughout the years. There is now a glass wall surrounding the perimeter of tower, which detracts from the whole experience. You can still go inside the glass walled area for free, but you must wait in the long securty check lines just like those who have tickets to go up the tower. Lines are long due to security checks and just the massive influx of visitors, so it can seem overwhelming where it once felt exhilarating. I would recommend opting out of going up the tower due to long wait times, crowds, high prices. Much better views of the city can be seen from the dome in Sacre Coeur, and you get to see the Eiffel tower from there (after climbing 300 steps). This visit in Feb 2026 there was massive construction from the Trocadero spot/gardens and most of it was not pretty and really hampered the whole experince. Seeing it from afar is spectacular! It is a wonder! read more
Excellent self guided tour to the top of the infamous Eiffel Tower in Paris France. The wait to get to the elevators was easily thirty minutes. The summit permitted million dollar views from 281 meters up in the skyline. Purchased a glass of champagne for 24€, which was a tourist trap but the wife wanted it to enhance our pictures. They also provide a gift store with Paris and Eiffel Tower related items. The whole event with great memories cost 50€. Spent over two hours here and left happy and exhausted. FYI: The Eiffel Tower lights up every night at 9pm. read more
Loved it! Bought tickets online to visit the summit of the Eiffel Tower. The lines weren't too long, about a 30 minute wait to get into an elevator that took you to the second floor. Summit tickets, then took you to another elevator to the top which had amazing views. Of course, I had to purchase my champagne for €24 and sipped it while taking pictures around the summit viewing area. read more
We visited in October and it was not crowded at all. We purchased 2nd level (as going to the top was sold out) and it did not disappoint. This level is much higher than you think. I purposely booked the time slot for right at sunset in order to view both with a day and an evening view. Uber dropped us off at the entrance. read more

We have been to Paris 5 times since 2014, and have visited every time, but this was the 1st time we booked a tour to the 2nd level... We did book our elevator tickets about a month in advance of our trip. It was so worth it, a few friends told us the 2nd level was a better tour than the summit, and we thoroughly loved it. After passing through the 1st security to get in the Eiffel Tower base area...there was a 2nd security point to gain access to the elevator. Ince on the 2nd level, the views were amazing. We had a glass of champagne and hung out. Definitely worth the trip up. read more
You're in Paris, you have to go. I mean really, how are you skipping this? Spend the money, buy the elevator ride to the top, sip some bubbles, take in the views, get the selfie, and check this one off your bucket list! Yes, it's that beautiful up there. Yes, it's crowded with every other tourist too. read more

There is an immersive experience to enhance your visit that explains all Of the history of the creator .they have elevators inside to give you a lift , go check it out . We are at a restaurant in the Eiffel Tower called Madame Brasserie . I like the fact that once you come in the park area they have stations on the ground that show the menu so you decide if you want to eat here before you get all the way here . You pay for the ride on the lift which is 23 euro. Get in line and you go through security check points (multiple) . Then you wait for the lift and then show your pass that's provided when you pay for the lift so they know you are going to the restaurant . read more
Visiting the Eiffel Tower is always a magnificent experience. I truly love how well everything is organized--from the elevators to the different levels, everything runs so smoothly and makes the visit enjoyable. Beyond its structure, the Eiffel Tower stands as an enduring symbol of Paris, the city of romance and love. It's fascinating to think that it was originally meant to be temporary, and yet it has become one of the most iconic landmarks in the world. This is my second time seeing it, and I sincerely hope I get to experience it many more times in the future. read more

Who knew that a tall Metal structure could be so iconic?!!! Of course I always desired to see it at least once in a lifetime. I always had a desire to see it since I was a child. We are never the same person, once we travel to a new place. Now, I can not define myself to a specific something - someone. My identity is as water, changing and adapting to a new setting, a new environment. After visiting Paris, and Italy, I am not the same, specifically in thinking patterns. This tower gives a Grounding feeling to Paris, to me, and maybe to a lot of people around it. Because it has a beautiful, magnificent, and a calming presence. The tower feels like a god that is always there for you, to make you feel at home, settled, grounded, peaceful. That was my impression and vibe of it. I capture the essence of the tower and of course, I loved it. As I was walking all over Paris, from almost all corners and streets, the tower is visible from just about EVERYWHERE! That was impressive and fun. At some point, it felt like the tower was stalking me jajaja! I guess this effect is due to the fact that all buildings in Paris are Landmarks, and usually about 4 to 7 floors high, which makes the tower visible from everywhere?!!! My brother loved it as well. We did not go up to the top, we were on the same page, as we didn't want to waste 1 or 2 hours making lines no where while on vacation. We used our time to move from place to place to see more rather than wait on lines. Getting to the top, maybe on another trip. read more

Honestly, what I thought was going to be my least favorite part of our trip last week turned out to be so much fun. It was getting dark, so we didn't go up but we found a great vantage point for viewing and just hung out for a couple of hours. The lighting of the tower was spectacular! Family friendly atmosphere. Boats up and down the Seine. A good time was had by all! read more
It was a short walk from our hotel, and so we saw it every day as we ventured out. At dusk it's even more majestic, as it's illuminated. There is a 5 minute light show every hour on the hour, and the finale is at 1am and lasts 10 minutes. Of course it's super touristy, but you can't go to Paris and not visit the Eiffel. read more

Still Breathtaking on a Second Trip! Visited for the second time in September 2024, and the Eiffel Tower lost none of its magic. The fall weather was ideal...cool and clear, making the day and night views absolutely stunning. Seeing Paris again with the subtle autumn colors was a wonderful. It's a classic for a reason and definitely worth the visit even if you've been before. A timeless experience! read more

Using ADA was super helpful. Having a letter from my PCP indicating accomidations has been a god send for this trip because it has opened doors and created a vibe that has eliminated barriers that otherwise would have prevented myself and other family members from this experience . Our spot was reserved for 11pm the last spot of the day, at night with the cooler weather. There is a separate line for ADA and 2 separate security checks. Reservations were done ahead of time in advanced and each entry point security was done. Even at night it was a packed house. The view is amazing. The photo options magical. For me, i wanted to experience it in real time, not concerned with photos for socials. Interestingly enough one guy that was near us was posting on tic tok. My parents had fun, but wear appropriate shoes and be ready to walk. 10/10. Im coming back. read more
