Apparently the Eiffel Tower grows in summer! Made of iron, it expands with heat & can get more than 15 cm taller.

The views at night was the best. You can either catch a lift to the top or brave taking the stairs. Dining at one of the two on-site restaurants is a must do and made it a trip to remember.

I went there for fun, the joy of being on the top, and sightseeing. I'd suggest buying the tickets in advance to avoid the long queues.

The famous landmark! Take a tour to the summit that cost €17 for an adult. Beware of pickpocket in the elevator! Enjoy the view on 2nd and top floor and visit the souvenirs shop. Bring jacket!

Sit by the river right next to the tower for best view at midnight when it sparkles for 5 mins. Another option is to see it from louvre that's a further view! Beautiful 5 mins of ur life!

Life's too short to wait in line! Get straight to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Skip the wait and experience the Eiffel Tower in all its glory with skip-the-line tickets. Follow me for more tips

You can see a bust of Gustave Eiffel at the foot of the North pillar of the Eiffel Tower. It was made by Antoine Bourdelle and installed in 1929. Have you seen it?

One of the World Iconic Landmark. Always busy and crowded, but it is better at night. It does the blinking lights for about 5 min. Once every hour. A must see when you are in Paris.

Best view from Trocadéro square. Small shops around, music bands and dancers, funny people taking pictures of them holding Eiffel Tower lol.
Michael BarakatSeptember 19, 2020
Honestly, seeing this monument with my own eyes made me realize that seeing stuff on the internet kills their values. You will witness how magnificent this structure is when you walk beside it.
EdwulfJanuary 23, 2017
Buy your tickets in advance, watch weather condiditions prior. I suggest to walk down the tower instead using elevator, less crowded and better views. Is taller than you imagine the first time
Rewan PartiDecember 18, 2015
€17 to go right to the top for adults! Make sure to view the Eiffel after sunset, it sparkles every first 5 min of every hour. The views are breathtaking.
Carlos RangelJanuary 4, 2022
Visiting Paris, the Eiffel Tower is a must in your trip, do not forget to climb at the top for great and magnificent views, just book ahead, the queue to get the tickets sometimes is pretty large

Well-Known touristic destination of Paris. You can book your tickets online. Easy access by taxis. Very recommended for site seeing & photography. برج إيفل معروف كوجهة سياحية للمسافرين لباريس.

The first tower in Paris!I think it is beautiful to see it from outside, or at night while it bright! But inside, you can only see the panoramica(a very good pano),eat in a restaurant,and buy souvenir
Amit GaharwarAugust 19, 2015
Reach via Metro 6. First view will be visible when metro passes over the Bir Hakiem bridge. Get down at Bir Hakiem stop. It is best to book your ticket online. Lines at the counters can be humongous.
Jay RuetherNovember 29, 2019
Great experience and worth going up to have an astonishing view of Paris. The stairs are not so bad and especially back down the fastest way to exit (app 10 min vs 20-30 min by elevator incl queue)
Alissa Samia AlvarezMay 14, 2013
5/14/13: you have two options 1) first level only and about €8, or 2) all the way to the top €14,50. Both are great views, but might as well go to the top! Will take at least 30 min wait time
Caroline DengDecember 29, 2016
704 steps up to the 2nd floor, where you can take an elevator to the top. It costs 5€ for EU citizens 18-25 to walk up to the second floor, then €6.50 to take the elevator to the top!
Patricia GajoMarch 14, 2019
If you feel the need to go up to the top, reserve ahead on-line (tickets sell fast) or risk waiting in long lineups. (And if you’ve never been, it’s worth it. Best view of Paris next to Montparnasse)

Magnificent structure that should b appreciated up close.Came here during d day & returned again @night.Views from d ground & up on d deck r priceless.Q can b frustratingly long so get ticket b4 hand.

You’ve seen it in the movies now it’s time to see the real thing! One of the must-see landmarks in the world, the Eiffel Tower will not disappoint you.
FHanumJuly 2, 2015
I spent 13.5€ to go to the top of Eiffel tower. It was summer time and I came in the mid afternoon, the queue was so long! Better to come early. The view from the top was so great!
Natasha De La CruzJuly 18, 2013
Great views at the top. I would suggest going to the Eiffel Tower both during the day to take pictures and during night to see the light show. Buy food and drinks before because prices are high!
Stephanie Davis GarzoliJanuary 1, 2016
You must go to the Eiffel Tower with the Fat Tire Tour Group. They help you skip the long lines, and provide a plethora of information about the monument's history. The second level was the best.

Nice area and the garden is beautiful, watch out not to be a victim of those who fool the tourists with their games, bunch of ppl who pretend to play a betting game to fool others.
IvaJune 14, 2017
Love love love!!! 🗼 Go on top! Enjoy view! We went to 2nd floor with stairs and didn't wait a minute. There we waited for elevator aprox 10min. Don't go on weekends.

I am sharing a tip today here since I am finally the mayor on Foursquare! My tip is straight forward: buy a ticket ahead of time, and when you’re there, scope the toilets - and then try for the front.

Once the lights start coming on around sunset the light show will happen on the hour for 5 min. It’s pretty awesome in person and worth seeing.
Kaushikkumar ShahAugust 8, 2016
Everything.....the Architecture, the steel structure, construction, the surroundings.....and the elevator the most, becoz it takes us there on top. Marvelous, Awesome, Amazing.
✨#IamRomdelacrème✨July 3, 2015
At the top of the tower enjoy a mesmerizing 360 view of the city of Paris. At the distance, you can see Notre-Dame, Sacré Coeur & several historic landmarks. Stay & enjoy the light show at sunset.
Natalie Cotto CastroJanuary 6, 2016
Paying the little extra for the elevator was the best thing we could do! View is amazing!!! 😍 Come prepared if you visit during winter! Cold and wind was crazy up there!
Corentin CombalbertDecember 8, 2018
When I go there, I prefer to take stairs and go to the 1st floor, it is sufficient for the view. The best time to go is during the evening (winter is freezing cold up there).
AManda HUangJune 24, 2017
Such a beautiful site to see. Although there are loads of people but I reckon it's worth the trip here. It really is pretty when ur standing right before it.

The symbol of the city. You can admire from different places in the city. It's even more beautiful at night

Go upstairs and admire Paris sights. And at afternoon make a picnic at the garden. The best hour for check the lights it's 1am cause the Tower light turns off and you only see the sparkling lights.
Shenaeology DruDecember 27, 2014
If you wanna climb the tower, make your reservations well in advanced or u'll be stuck in a LONG queue! I say dine and wine up the tower for the experience. . after all it is the highlight of Paris
João GonçalvesOctober 16, 2016
It's a cliché but it's also a good reminder of what's left to visit and a great way to review what you've seen. From here, you can see everything. Plus, the most iconic Eiffel building.
Cos BJanuary 3, 2017
From the top you have the best view in Paris. Overcrowded. A ticket to the summit costs 17€. Book in advance, the queue is up to 2 hours wait. During the winter you can freeze waiting to get in.
Richy MarschallJune 17, 2019
A “Must” for tourists. Sit down at champ-de-mars with a bottle of booze and have a great time. But don’t go up, it’s way to many people up there. Go up St-Jacques Tower for a great view.
Nuno CoelhoJuly 10, 2015
To be honest it impressed me! After seeing so many images I didn't expected to be surprised. Very beautiful! Saw the sunset, just amazing. Also, took the stairs and only took 40 min to get in.
KarenFebruary 4, 2018
This tower is absolutely gorgeous from the outside. Once you're inside, it really just looks like metal, but the views from the tower are worth the admission and the wait times to get in.
Gloria KeukensFebruary 25, 2022
Tip: take the line for the stairs (short line!) and get the combined ticket. Walk the steps to 2nd floor then take lift. Cheaper and little lines. Nice extra: walk off the croissants..

James Bond pursues a masked assassin through the Eiffel Tower before she parachutes off it in A View to a Kill (1985). A stuntman was fired for making an unauthorised 2nd jump for this scene. Read more

The symbol of Paris. You probably can't say you've been to Paris if you haven't visited the Eiffel Tower. It may be better to visit it at night, when the lights are turned on.
