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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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!
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!

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!

First of all I walked with my niece about 40 mins from The Big Wheel in the middle of winter in Paris to see the Eiffel Tower, and was it ever worth it! One of the most beautifully sights I've laid my eyes on my whole Euro trip. I was completely awe struck by its size, detail, and overall beauty. I very much recommend seeing it at night because it's beautifully lit and I believe it sparkles on the hour (I was there at 11pm on the dot so I'm assuming it happens hourly). When it does sparkle it's like magic--reminds you of Swarovski crystals shinning bright. It's also perfect for a romantic stroll--in its presence you just feel so happy and in love with whoever you're with. Just be weary because there's a lot of people trying to see things to you--trinkets such as keg chains and little figurines--and they can be quite persistent. Also keep your valuables at home and purses in front of you because it's a well known touristy area and pickpocketing is notorious in Paris. I'll definitely be back one day, though. It was too beautiful not to see again. read more
One of the most incredible landmarks on earth! So glad we finally got to see this famous and iconic structure. We stayed in Bir-Hakeim right by Eiffel tower. Our airbnb was a 10 minute walk away which also overlooked the Eiffel. It is a monster of a tower! We just wanted to be as close to it to admire it as long as possible! We took a tour on the Eiffel through Viator tours and it was amazing! We waited about an hour and a half to get to the upper floor and it was tight but I'm so glad we did! There's even a small bar to get champagne while you admire the view. Plus, I had to take every picture opportunity I could at the "Place to Kiss" poster! I love the romaniticism of Paris and seeing the Eiffel tower is a dream come true! read more

You gotta see this icon and symbol of France if, you're ever in Europe. Its an awesome display of an Frenchman's desire to build a temporary display for the World's Fair. read more

The line to the elevator to the top, was non existent this day, so we zipped right up! Great views, a bit scary tbh, but fun! We took some pics, had some laughs, and then walked all the way down the stairs, to the exit! If you are afraid of heights, skip the walking down the stairs part, as my hubby was not so comfortable walking all the way down. read more

You're crazy if you come to Paris and don't visit the Eiffel Tower. My first impression of La Tour Eiffel was that it was smaller than I pictured but it was also pretty unforgettable. The day I went, it was super rainy, and I waited in line for over an hour and a half. I really wanted to get tickets to the all the way to the top and right as I was the next customer, they closed it down. It seemed like it was just one wrong thing after the other. The moment I actually got in the tower, everything bad just kind of disappeared. Here I am, on the actual Eiffel tower, I did all kinds of projects on it for French class and voila, je suis ici! It's definitely one of the things I'll never forget in my life and the view is just incredible, whether the weather was rainy or not. I did hear from other people that went that the top doesn't even really change anything, you're just in a tiny place with a lot of people and you're looking out a window. Regardless, the view from where I was, was breathtaking and it was all worth it in end. My tip is that if you don't want to be in line, buy the tickets ahead of time and when you're actually up there in the tower, take a moment, breathe, and enjoy the view! Je t'aime Paris! read more

I don't think I need to write a review to convince you to pay this a visit. Ticket Prices 11 Euros for a lift ticket to the second floor 17 Euros for a lift ticket to top floor Metro Stop: Bir-Hakeim Good idea to pack a picnic and have lunch at Champ de Mars. Although they're strict about alcohol there for some reason. If you have more time and a budget I recommend having lunch or dinner at Jules Verne or 58 Tour but make sure to make reservations 3-5 months ahead. Visit both in the day time and at night so you can see it light up. Super romantic. read more
Magical wonder!! What's there to say about Eiffel's tower that hasn't been said already? It is absolutely breathtaking. Magical! Beautiful. Amazing! Mind Blowing! And then some! Get your tickets online, come in and skip waiting in the ridiculously long line. You must come during the day time and at night. They are totally different experiences. I visit this place almost everyday while I'm in Paris. It is that magical. Plus you can pretty much see it from a lot of places. The new first floor is absolutely stunning. And if you feel like splurging, they have Michelin star restaurant at the top, lunch in the middle and even a champagne bar. They also have mini cafes up at the top for sandwiches and such. It is not cheap but it is one of the seventh wonder. It is magical!! I love love this place at night. The lights go off every hour. You must be there for it. It will make you squeal, smile and jump with joy! Or just marvel!! I heart you Tour Eiffel!! I heart you!! read more

It's obvious that going up into the Eiffel Tower is one of those bucket-list type activities, and it truly does not disappoint. My wife said that it was much more substantial up there that she had anticipated, so we both felt very safe and secure walking around. We weren't able to buy tickets to the Summit (the very top of the tower) before we left for our trip, because they had already sold-out, but you can typically buy Summit tickets at the Box Office on the day you want to go up. The tickets are for immediate entry only, so you can't buy them at the box office in the morning and expect to go up later that day. Luckily we were able to get Summit tickets at the Box Office and made it up just as the sun was setting. Truly a priceless moment :) Note: We visited in September 2016 read more
When in Paris you must tour the Eiffel Tower, have to, how can you not? Pro tip: Save time buy your tickets online http://www.toureiffel.paris/en/preparing-your-visit/buying-your-tickets.html a ticket to the summit is 17 euros, which also allows you access to 1st & 2nd floor as well and the 1st floor now has a glass walkway! This was my 2nd trip up the summit, last time was at night, this time was early evening, and I have to say during the day (or when the sun is out) offers some great views of the city below. You can even spot the mini statue of liberty. But at night, the Eiffel Tower is lite up and it twinkles every hour, which is pretty cool too, so maybe go twice haha. Enjoyed my tour of the Eiffel tower, and I'm sure the next time I am in Paris I will be back at the summit again. read more

One of the many iconic wonders of the world is located in Paris! By day, you're going to want visit the top and view the wonderful city of Paris, there's even a place to purchase some champagne to add to the atmosphere of the moment! There's a restaurant on the first floor, snack bars on the 2nd tier with plenty of gift shops. I did spend some money on a few items. It helps to get a granita drink and some French macarons - so delicious! At night, the Eiffel is lit up in golden lights and is such an amazing sight to see! Across the Eiffel Tower is a carousel and a couple of food stands to buy crêpes or hotdogs & other items. Also, there's a wonderful park right behind the tower to enjoy a nice picnic or to rest. I was here in April of 2016, and I noticed that they've added a barricade around the base of the tower and now guests must go through security to enter the tower space. Other than that, it's still an experience one must see! A bien tôt! :) read more
You only LIVE ONCE!! When I first saw it I was amazed! it's outstanding! It's beautiful and breath taken! This is something I always always go see and go visit in person rather than seeing it on romantic movies all the time. Haha! You can not visit Paris without seeing this tour! I differently recommend you to go up the tower because the view is sooo beautiful!! The line is very long to go up the tower but that's no problem! once your up it's worth it! going up the stairs is a workout! my legs were shaking at one point when I reached the very top glass floor! Once you look down eveyone looks like ants !! yup it's true! Now the night view is spectacular! once it gets dark the lights turn on! You will hear screams out of excitement! I sat down for a quick rest in the park below the tower! everything was just a dream come true ! read more
How to SKIP the LINE: Book your reservation for the Eiffel Tower in advance and print out your tickets online. You must book months in advance before it sells out. Then you arrive at the Eiffel Tower and go to the special entrance for people with advance reservations. They will let you in 5 minutes before your appointed time. Book on the official website for the Eiffel Tower. It's COLD and WINDY up there in the evening, even in July! Bring a jacket. We only went up to the 2nd level, because advance tickets for the top of the tower sold out within minutes of the time they were offered online for our date. For me, the 2nd level was high enough! In July, we had an 8:00 reservation. It doesn't get dark til around 10:00. This allowed us plenty of time in the Eiffel Tower, and time to come down and walk outside to an excellent viewpoint to get photos of the tower lights, which twinkled at 10:00pm. Although the tower lights are on at night, they don't always twinkle. (I think they twinkle for a few minutes at each hour.) For me, it was romantic and exciting sharing the experience with my husband, and surrounded by visitors from around the world, speaking many languages. You will see many people standing between 2 large buildings at the end of the street in the distance. That's one of the best places for taking photos of the Eiffel Tower. I very much enjoyed the Eiffel Tower with our advance reservation. I would NOT wait in line for hours if I didn't have advance tickets. In that case I would just see it from the ground. read more

INCREDIBLE Amazing experience. Price to go inside the tower was fair. Be careful with the pick pocketers. read more

It's the iconic piece of Paris. It's what people know the most. It's the most toured spot in the city. But it's also a haven for hecklers, pan handling, pick pockets, aggressive souvenir salesmen, and many more vagrants. It still makes me say wow, but only from a distance or when you are actually up in the Eiffel Tower. It's the view, it's the architecture, it's the majestic size that makes you say wow!!! But having these vagrants and those fake deaf people asking you to sign their petition or whatever, doesn't give it the best experience one wants when visiting the tower. Hey at least they never sell you stuff when you are in the 2nd floor or the summit itself. The views are obviously amazing when you do the summit view. It's 13€ to the top or 8€ to the second floor. Keep in mind that if it's hella already cold at the bottom, then it's super hella cold at the top. Tip: Save time by buying your ticket online. Print out or show the scan code from your phone. And you bypass all the lines. When you're inside the elevator, they'll want to pack you all in, so watch out for pickpockets. At night, the tower lights up and can be seen from miles and miles away. Such a beautiful sight. Minus the vagrants, this is why I enjoyed my stay here in Paris. read more
Is there a more recognizable symbol of France (and Paris) than the Eiffel Tower? I'd venture a guess - no. While it may be one of the most touristy destinations in Paris, it's definitely a must-do for anyone travelling to Paris for the first time (or first time in a long time). My favorite time of day to go up La Tour has to be around sunset, though any time you make it to the top, it's just breath-taking to see all of Paris laid out in front of you. And make sure you venture out to the Champs de Mars and watch it light up - it's absolutely gorgeous. If you don't feel like springing for the elevator ride to the top, you can always walk up the stairs. Also, bring along a bottle of wine, a baguette, and some fromage, and enjoy a picnic in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower. Now that's an experience you won't forget. read more

Love is in the air!!!!! I fell in love with this beautiful landmark and I had a remarkable experience going on the day tour. I never thought I would ever go to Paris but here I was standing in front of the Eiffel Tower posing for my pictures to be taken. I was so scared out of my mind going to each levels on the Eiffel Tower because I felt like I was going to fall off. I wish I had the luxury to spend all day here at the Eiffel Tower but sadly I had many other places to visit. I can't wait to go again! read more

If it weren't for my advance-purchase group ticket, I would've been stuck in a 2-3 hour line...no, I wouldn't have; I would've left long before that because I'm impatient. Yay for group tickets! We were warned that there were pickpockets *inside* the Eiffel Tower... Nice. I taunted them to take the contents of my purse (MAC lipstick, forever 21 fingerless gloves, a subway map & a granola bar.) Now that's hitting the jackpot! It looks different at night, all sparkly & glowing, than it does in the daytime, so be sure to check it out twice! Love the cafes with reasonably-priced foods. Bf & I shared a cup of potato leek soup for like €5. It was so romantical to sit outside, sipping warm soup & sharing views of Paris with the cutest person you know. PS: I just saw Janice C.'s review claiming,'You're a jerk if you give the Eiffel Tower less than 5 stars.' LMFAO. Janice C. is my Yelp homie--she already knows I'm a jerk ;) Hey girl!!! read more
I used to live within view of the Eiffel Tower and let me tell you -- it never gets old. Never. Even on the nights we felt like laying around on the couch and doing nothing, we'd all get up and go to the balcony to watch it light up and sparkle (every hour on the hour from sunset to 1am or 2am during the summer). It's the best way to remind yourself that you're in Paris and Paris is awesome even when you've been in Paris too long. Bravely go forth and take your photos in the park! Go! Eiffel Tower on your head, Eiffel Tower in your hands, backs to the camera pointing at the Eiffel Tower -- go and do it all! You're tourists and that's what this place is all about. Some words of caution: You're tourists and that's what the Eiffel Tower is about. Keep your valuables close and watch out for pickpockets. Actually, watch out for everyone. The best pickpockets don't look like pickpockets and trust me when I tell you that they are everywhere. Also, feel free to bring a bottle or six of wine and have yourself a little picnic on the green. Don't have a bottle of wine or champagne on you right now? Weird! You're in France! Stop doing Paris wrong and head to Franprix. If you are not immediately across from a Franprix (where are you then?) have no fear -- there are a number of grocery stores in the area to pick up a cheap bottle and some snacks. If you absolutely MUST you can buy bottles from the lovely gentlemen that walk around the green as soon as the sun starts to set, but please please please please don't pull out your wallet and hand them the 30 euro they claim is a great price for that particular bottle. That bottle costs 2 euro down the street and you can haggle them down to five. Everybody wins. Also, if you absolutely have your heart set on paying the $$$ to walk or ride to the top, I'm not going to try and stop you. Go! Do! Vivez! -- but maybe skip the dinner portion and eat literally anywhere else in the city. Anyway, you'll enjoy it from any angle. It's the Eiffel Tower and it's maybe the only tired old tourist trap that is just as amazing every time you see it. Amusez-vous bien à Paris! read more

She is stunning!! The Eiffel Tower has been in my bucket list forever and I am so happy I get to see her up-close. The first sight of her made my heart jumped and almost brought me to tears. She is so beautiful in the morning and especially when she's lit up at night. If she's in your bucket list, please visit this magnificent tower, she will not disappoint you. Worth every penny I may say. She's not only 5 stars, she's a perfect 10!! read more
The symbol of Paris. The symbol of France. The symbol that is paralleled only by New York's Statue of Liberty. Like London with Big Ben and Rome with the Colosseum, La Tour Eiffel - the Eiffel Tower - is the defining symbol for the City of Lights. However, even these world-famous landmarks among with others cannot match the popularity and the influence that this Tower has! See the famous Eiffel Tower up-close in Champs de Mars or faraway at the other side of the Siene at the Trocadero Square or on the top of Arc de Triomphe! This may be the world's most photographed landmark but nonetheless, you can't convince anyone that you've been to Paris without a photo of this icon. For me, the Eiffel Tower is the most beautiful at nighttime, when it is usually lit in a single golden light. Sadly its nighttime illuminations have been changing to reflect the many tragedies that occur throughout the world and even in Paris. Nonetheless, it is exactly because of these unusual illuminations that show that the most beautiful thing in this world is mankind's solidarity to stand in undaunted hope in the face of tragedies. --- TRANSPORTATION For up-close view at Champs de Mars, take RER C to the titular station For faraway view at Trocadero Square, take Metro Line 6 or 9 to Trocadero For faraway view on Arc de Triomphe, take Metro 1/2/6 or RER A to Charles du Gaulle Etoile read more

Impressive and beautiful during the day and even cooler looking all lit up at night. Certainly, you can't miss this landmark on your trip. Mid July and of course it was swarming with tourists. Cameras everywhere. Cops chasing away Africans that are trying to force you to buy some ridiculous trinkets, only they return as fast as they get chased out. I did not bother standing in line for hours to get to the top, but I hear it's an adventure. Maybe next time I will try to get to the observation deck at night...otherwise it's a fun walk through the city and a quick visit...gotta get those pictures of course ;-) read more

You know EVERY Tourist is coming to see this big hunk of steel so you can save some time of waiting in a long line to buy tickets by buying them on-line! If you just look at all the steel beams that went into building this thing I think that's the beauty http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/tour-eiffel-paris-3?select=7KtjR8qa6xpWoQOqy5Vv_Q#vGUJjZ4tBA3rlLnkWHY9AA If you want a lift ticket to the Top it will cost you £15.50 for an adult ticket, or if you're feeling adventurist you can make the trek by the 704 Stairs! for a small fee. View from the Top http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/tour-eiffel-paris-3?select=7KtjR8qa6xpWoQOqy5Vv_Q#7KtjR8qa6xpWoQOqy5Vv_Q and as you can see by the many other photos of this thing it lights up at night, which makes it more spectacular. read more

Awesome! Tickets were arranged through our tour group, so there was minimal wait for us to board the lift up to the second level viewing platform. From there, we had free reign to enjoy the 360 degree views overlooking the Left and Right banks of the Seine. Amazing for picture taking on a gorgeous day, if you are so lucky! read more

I probably spent an hour and a half at the Eiffel Tower, took a gazillion photos, and loved every moment of it. Go to the top, yes, it's worth it. And to help you enjoy it, here are some helpful tips: 1. Read about the Eiffel Tower beforehand, or go on an "Intro to Paris" bike/walking tour so your guide can tell you some fun and interesting facts before you go. 2. Get there before 10.00a. I got there at 10.00a and waited less than 10 minutes to get a ticket (for the stair route). I purchased the "stairs to the 2nd level + lift to top" for 11 EU. 3. Take the stairs! The line is MUCH shorter, the ticket is cheaper, and the stairs are very manageable. You climb to the 2nd level then take an elevator from there all the way to the top. The stairs weren't crowded when I went, and you can go at your own pace. 4. Go all the way to the top first, then come back down and linger on the 2nd level. I spent too much time taking photos on the 2nd level on my way up that I ended up waiting in line for the elevator for a really long time (longer than when I bought my ticket). 5. Bring a jacket or wear layers. It's windy at the top! read more
