The Eiffel Tower needs no introduction but is still an absolutely amazing place to visit! We were able to spend more time in Paris than we were planning after our connecting flight was cancelled, and we took the opportunity to go to the top of the tower, and enjoyed seeing the sun set from the top. This was mid-February, so it was off-season, and the wait times were not bad at all. We had to wait less than 10 minutes to purchase our tickets and less than 20 minutes total for the lifts. Adult fare for a trip to the top is 28 Euro, but we thought it was well worth it and was definitely a highlight of our short time in the city. After the tower tour we took a river boat cruise and enjoyed seeing the tower all lit up. The tower has sparkling lights that flash for 5 minutes every hour on the hour - very neat!
It’s literally one of the most beautiful jewelry art piece in the entire world, from the ancient time. A majestic and wonderful divinity which is the master piece of the city, my heart city Paris.
Every time I crossed it or passed by I make sure to express my gratitude for such a grounding and soothing environment that the Eiffel Tower. Let’s not forget that Paris have been the first city in the world to provide almost all big road arteries electricity and light and it went specially for the world great fair ever from 1889. I wish I was born back then. Paris the light city, the most romantic city and the most artistic. With all my love

Wow wow wow. 😍😍😍 What an impressive architectural design. Superb location on the Seine river. From each level you get superb views of the city.
I booked the walking tour and was very pleased with myself for taking the stairs up to the second floor. Then elevator up to the summit.
On the second floor and on the summit enjoyed two nice glasses of champagne.🥂🥂
Price of the champagne was a bit expensive ( £17 second floor/ £22 summit) but I suppose you pay for the view rather than the champagne itself😂
I would definitely recommend to anyone who visits the tower to book as well the summit view.

The view and experience was amazing from every level. I bought tickets from the actual website (recommended due to scams) for the top as a family of 3. My experience was the elevator/lift. There are 3 floors.
You can walk to the lowest, or catch the lift on the way down. Don't get off here when coming down, people are packed like sardines, so you'll never get back on and will have to just walk down or up.
Next stop is a better vantage point, lots of room, but tourists and natives fill up every corner. Off-season we were able to get great pics when the day cleared up after raining around 5pm, our luck.
Top floor was the best vantage of all Paris, amazing. That's what you want.
There's a shop for knick knacks, champaign and coffee. I honest don't know how you would ever appreciate them though; it was packed on off season. A cattle car of 1 lift after another just shuttling people up. My only criticism was metering more.

Eiffel tower is definitely a marvel! During the day its gigantic and at night views with excellent lighting is amazing. River seine and the scenic views from the top of the tower are wonderful.
Ticket prices were reasonable. Tickets can be picked up online or at the site. We would recommend online as it was easy. Railways and buses are available at any time for travel to the tower and its located at easy access.

During summer (August - September ) the evening slot after 17:30 is highly recommended as you can watch the beautiful Paris sunset. The most iconic and most visited place in Paris. Summit is highly recommended as you get the main spectacular 360 degree view of Paris. You get to see a different side of the city from here at the top. We were lucky to have experience the sunset from the Summit. Very very special in itself.
