Just as the title says, visiting the Eiffel Tower is moving and impressive. No tourist or visitor can leave Paris, without having visited this place. It's awesome: For the height of more than 300 meters; the views that are obtained from the different platforms and the engineering work that its creator made. It's touching: For what this monument means for those of us who have flown more than 12,000 km to get there, and for all the events of history of which the tower has been a luxury spectator. For all that and a few more reasons, it was exciting my visit to the tower and that is why also, I recommend it to everyone who can do it. I bought my ticket on the official website, two months before, because I wanted to choose day and time, and I think it is the best to organize. I can also mention that I took for Sunday morning the ascent to the top, because I booked for noon the Brunch at Madamme Braserie, which deserves a separate comment. Luckily, everything was carried out on time and I could really enjoy every stage of my visit. Access is very well organized, and for those of us who had the ticket purchased previously, it was comfortable and fast. Of course it depends on the budget you have, but for anyone who wants to give a taste, I totally recommend doing the combined experience of climbing to the top and then doing Brunch. Better that I explain, see for yourself all the rates and options that are offered, on the official website, for each of the experiences. STUNNING AND MOVING !!!!!!!!!!

Place to go day (for photos) and night (to see it illuminated). I consider dedicating a maximum of 3 hours (climbing to the top by elevator) + the elevator queue to climb. Spend an hour on the grass at the front of the tower for bedtime, and if you like to drink a bottle of wine right there (there are many people who sell the bottles + glasses), you need cash to buy it. I recommend going up in the day to visualize the city better, and the earlier there will be less traffic upstairs. Buy tickets online, or arrive early to buy them directly at the box office (if you get them by queuing, the time varies depending on the time and time), for example in November, arriving at 8:30am, already by 9 have your ticket purchased and you will be in the queue to climb.

We bought the tickets on the spot at 9:30am on a very cold Saturday morning with no one in line. Wasn’t crowded in the morning. If you see the ad for “Immersive Walk” for free, be aware that you still have to book a spot online and wait in line.

The Eiffel Tower is one of the world’s most famous attractions, something you MUST do when visiting Paris and a once in a lifetime experience. So, for the first time in my life, I went to the Eiffel Tower and it did not disappoint in the slightest. In fact, it exceeded my expectations massively! Here’s what happened: The queue was massive, so we were waiting for around 40-50 minutes which nearly destroyed my poor, poor legs. Please be careful if you are unable to wait in the long queues (for whatever reason) because you could be waiting for an hour or more. After the long wait, and getting past security (who were really nice), we took a lift to the middle part of the tower, but not the summit because it was fully booked. I was already blown away by the scale and beauty of the tower, but the view from just the middle part really put into perspective how small we really are. The view was so unimaginably vast, that I can’t even put it into words, so please, if you ever have the chance, go and see it for yourself. I would definitely recommend that you go to the Eiffel Tower, because it’s amazing, interesting and beautiful. The staff that were on duty when I was there were really friendly and polite, and I was never bored there. My only criticism is the gift shop, it was incredibly expensive. If you want to get a souvenir for your friends/family at home, for example a small, plastic Eiffel Tower keyring, you will have to pay 10 euros, per keyring!!! Do not bother in the gift shop because you could get a cheap plastic Eiffel Tower keyring anywhere else for much less than 10 euros! In conclusion, please go, it is amazing and beautiful, you will love it, but don’t bother in the gift shop.

Visiting the Eiffel Tower was one of the highlights of our Paris trip! We used GetYourGuide to ensure we got in, which cost us a bit more ($268.42 for 2 adults and 2 kids), but it was worth it to skip the uncertainty and guarantee access to the top. We made it all the way to the summit, and the views were absolutely breathtaking—the entire city of Paris stretched out beneath us. Standing on the glass floor on the first level was a cool experience, especially for the kids. What we didn’t expect was how great the food, drinks, and souvenirs would be on the tower itself. We relaxed at the bar area with snacks and drinks, and the selection of souvenirs was better than some of the tourist shops below. Since we visited just before the Paris Olympics, we got to see some cool Olympic setups, including the massive Olympic rings hanging from the tower. It made the visit feel even more special! If you’re planning a visit, we highly recommend: Booking in advance (especially if you want to reach the summit). Budgeting extra for snacks, drinks, and souvenirs—it’s worth enjoying the experience fully! Taking your time—there’s more to do than just the view.

I honestly just find the Eiffel Tower magical - it makes me very happy! We were in Paris the first week of June, and I had read that tickets were released online at midnight 60 days in advance. I attempted to buy them when they were released but had no luck – I was online for a few hours after midnight (Paris time) and the tickets for the next date were not available yet. Being Canadian, we have a 6-hour time difference, and by the time I woke up in the morning and checked, it was about 1 or 2 pm Paris time and all the tickets were sold out. This same scenario played out for several days. If this happens to you, don't get discouraged! More tickets are released closer to each date. Friends of ours traveling at the same time told us they had purchased stair access tickets 2 weeks before the trip. We waited until we got there. The day we arrived in Paris, we were able to get tickets online with elevator access to the second floor for the following night (a Wednesday). We bought 9 pm tickets, which was perfect. This gave us enough time to get up to the second floor and find a place to stand before the sun set around 9:45 pm. We then watched the city light up once it was dark and left around 10:45 pm. At that time, it was not crowded, and we could walk down the stairs at our own pace, stopping on the first floor to see the view from there. We did not go to the top, but really enjoyed the view from the second floor, and were able to walk around the entire viewing deck to see every angle. We could see the tower itself light up and got great photos standing below it while we were leaving. Finding the entrance was confusing. It's marked on a map on the website, but with some streets closed for the Olympics and security fencing around the whole structure, it took us some time to figure out how to get through the fence. Because we already had tickets and it was nighttime, we walked right through the first security checkpoint at the outer fence (there were a few short lines for people without tickets). There was a small line at the entrance to the elevators with a bit of a wait (about 20 minutes), and the elevator was packed full. I'm short and claustrophobic but was fine – it’s a short ride. We were a few minutes late for our arrival time, but this was no problem. At busier times, it would mean a longer wait to go up. There was an x-ray for bags at both entrances. I won't discuss the gift shop and food options there because the website is really informative. I highly recommend visiting!

We looked at the Eiffel Tower exclusively from the outside, and the view from below is impressive. The monumental structure rises majestically into the sky, and we could admire the filigree iron structure in all its size and detail. It was particularly fascinating how the tower changes shape depending on the incidence of light – the metal shimmers golden brown in sunlight, while it appears almost dramatic in cloudy skies. The area around the tower is also very welcoming. The extensive green spaces offer enough space for anyone who wants to hang around the tower, whether it's for a picnic or just to relax. From the Champ de Mars you have a beautiful view of the tower, and the large lawns provide a perfect contrast to the stone foundations of the tower. Unfortunately, it was at night, so we cannot post photos here, as night shots are not allowed to be published. Nevertheless, the sight of the tower at night – illuminated and in its full size – was simply breathtaking. However, it could not be overlooked that the Eiffel Tower is a very popular tourist destination, which was reflected in the large crowd. Especially in the evening, when many visitors visit the tower for the light show, there may be longer waiting times, both for access to the surrounding areas and for the view of the tower. The atmosphere was relaxed despite the many tourists, and we kept finding quiet moments where we could enjoy the details of the tower and the surrounding area in peace. The environment itself is well maintained, with wide paths, benches and lots of greenery. The well-kept gardens and fountains contribute to a relaxed atmosphere and offer new perspectives on the landmark. We used the time to view the tower from different angles and experience the impressive structure up close. The delicate ironwork and the huge arches are simply fascinating. The Eiffel Tower is a true masterpiece of engineering from the outside. Overall, visiting the Eiffel Tower without climbing it was an impressive experience. Even without experiencing the tower from the inside, its exterior beauty alone is worth a trip. The tower and the surrounding area are a perfect combination of historic architecture, quiet green spaces and a lively atmosphere.

First time in Paris with the family and of course visit to the Eiffel Tower. Beautiful experience, we took the elevator up to the top. We purchased the tickets online about two months before our departure. I recommend going online around midnight because then it becomes increasingly difficult to choose the day and above all the time of the visit. Towards the top it is quite cold and always windy so you need to cover up. The view of the city is priceless, especially in the evening hours. Experience I would do again.

There must be a climb up the tower. If you do not suffer from the height the top floor or alternatively the second floor offer a unique view and a breathtaking panorama. Clear and efficient lift service. I highly recommend making the electronic ticket to save half the time, otherwise making the ticket directly under the tower is easy to get even two hours in line before climbing.

When you're at the top of the Eiffel tower, looking at Paris from the top - with a lot of wind I must say, please carry a strong coat ... you feel chosen, you feel special. It's really A MUST. Don't be scared of the kilometric lines on every step of the journey to the top. Believe me, it's all worthy. There are shops on each floor, coffee shops, souvenir stores and even a little museum showing the story of when the tower was built and its creator. My biggest tip is for you to find the machine at one of the last floors and get yourself an Eiffel Towels' coin. It's a beautiful souvenir and it costs 3 E. I carry it with me as a lucky charm!
