The Eiffel Tower is the symbol of Paris. It's over 100 years old, built for an exposition in 1889. The architecture draws you in, the lights at night delight. 6 MILLION people descend the tower every year. There's always a line up and a wait for the elevators which can take quite awhile when busy and full. Prices per adult: 1st floor 4.50, 2nd floor 7.80, top 11.50. Stairs 1st and 2nd floor: 4 euros. Elevators open late in summer, stairs close at 6 in winter/off season. No advance ticket sales

At Least Do This: Take photos from below or from the Palais Chaillot across the river, from underneath or from the College Militaire. The Eiffel tower goes all sparkly every hour on the hour for 10 minutes after dark and it's quite spectacular to see.
Alternative: go to Montparnasse Tower. At 210 m. at the 56th floor you are higher than from the second level of the Eiffel. or go up the Arc de Triomphe and take photos with the Eiffel *in* your photo.

Researching for my holiday. Do not want to miss anything this time around. Thanks for the lovely tips ;-) | Jefie Sat May 12, 2007 20:53 UTC
Hello Diane! Thanks for stopping by my Paris page - I do hope you get to go back this year, and I'm sure you'll manage to avoid going to McDonald's this time around! Take care, Isa :o) | tarced Wed Aug 17, 2005 22:05 UTC
I hope you've had the chance to go to Paris more recently! When I take my students there, I always hope that they will return since they can't see too much in two or three days. |
