Eiffel Tower tickets are timed, which means each ticket comes with a specific entry time, which you must adhere to in order to gain access to the tower. It's important to arrive on time (or even 15 minutes earlier), as missing your scheduled entry slot may mean that you won’t be able to enter the tower.
With a guide to lead you, you'll bypass the often long and confusing queues, which can be especially daunting given the crowds at Trocadéro and the multiple entrances to the tower. Your guide not only helps you navigate these challenges but also ensures you get quick access to either the 2nd floor or the summit, depending on your ticket choice. This means you’ll spend less time waiting and more time admiring the breathtaking views of Paris. Plus, your guide will share fascinating stories and insights about the Eiffel Tower, enriching your experience as you explore this iconic landmark.
Yes, a summit ticket includes access to both the 1st and 2nd floors, providing a complete experience of the Eiffel Tower.
No, 2nd-floor tickets don’t include summit access. However, you can upgrade your ticket for a full experience that includes the summit.
If you're looking for a challenge and a more budget-friendly option, climbing the 674 steps to the 2nd floor offers a unique perspective and a sense of accomplishment. For a more relaxed experience, especially if it's your first visit, the elevator to the summit is ideal, offering unmatched panoramic views of Paris.
Absolutely. While the summit access requires an upgrade, it offers unparalleled views of Paris and a closer look at Gustave Eiffel’s private office. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience for those wanting to see the city from its highest point.
No, there are no dedicated tickets for the Champagne Bar. However, access to the bar is included with your summit ticket, where you can purchase a drink while enjoying the view.
For families, a ticket with elevator access to the 2nd floor is ideal. It offers stunning views without the physical exertion of climbing stairs. Adding a Seine River cruise can provide a relaxing end to your visit.
If you’re concerned about heights, you might want to avoid the summit or dining experiences, which involve elevator rides and high vantage points. Stick to the 1st or 2nd floors for a less intimidating experience.
Plan on spending around 1.5 to 2.5 hours for your visit. Reaching the second level typically takes about 1.5 hours, while visiting the summit can take up to 2.5 hours. Climbing the stairs will add some extra time.
Yes, the Eiffel Tower is open late into the evening, offering a magical experience with the city illuminated below. Night visits are popular for their stunning views of Paris lit up, and the Tower sparkles with thousands of lights every hour on the hour. It’s a great way to avoid daytime crowds and see the city in a different light.
