★★★★★5 months agoWhat an amazing experience! Completely fell in love with the charm it has. Took the ticket from the site and went up the top of effiel. It was totally worth it. Took stairs to 2nd floor and then elevator to the top, the best choice to experience the complete tower. Has good cafes and gift shops and really loved the climb. When visiting during winter, make sure to wear something that keep you warm because it freezes on top due to the cold winds. A must try and Visit spot. I experienced the effiel tower from all corners, and from different angles around the city. Take the train for the view, get the view when it sparkles, take the scene cruise for a different experience and view

★★★★★2 weeks agoDude it’s the Eiffel Tower. Like what is more iconic as a symbol of Paris??? I personally think that the second floor is superior to the summit, beyond novelty sake. You are high up enough to see the whole city, yet don’t pay the added cost. The views are immense, so make sure to bring binoculars to really make the most of it. I cannot recommend enough to buy tickets, it was an hour queue vs zero queue.
