The combined ticket to climb the Eiffel Tower and take a cruise on the Seine can be purchased conveniently online. There are several companies that offer this package for travelers visiting the city of Paris. And there is no doubt that it is a highly recommended option, as it guarantees priority access to both attractions without queuing, so you will save time and, in addition, the price of the combined ticket (from about 90 euros) is usually cheaper than the sum of separate tickets to both attractions.

The combined ticket to the Eiffel Tower and the Seine River cruise are done on the same day. In fact, the tour lasts about two and a half hours, one hour for each attraction, and can be booked both in the morning and afternoon. The first visit will take place at the Eiffel Tower and, once finished, you will head to the Bir-Hakeim Bridge from where the cruise on the Seine will depart.

Although I recommend that if you have the opportunity to do it as late as possible, since the cruise from sunset is more beautiful if possible. The illuminated city of Paris captivates everyone who knows it. Of course, early in the morning the tourist influx will be lower and the visit will always be more comfortable.

The combined ticket to the Eiffel Tower and Seine cruise is also very convenient, as the boat departs from the Pont de Bir-Hakeim, which is located at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. To get to both sites you can opt for the metro, bus, car or train. In my opinion, the most convenient is the metro.

• Metro: There are three metro stations next to the Eiffel Tower: Trocadéro, Bir-Hakeim and École-Militaire, and from all three you can comfortably walk there in just a few minutes. Visit the metro map: and read the post how to use the metro in Paris and you will have no doubts.
• Train: You should take the C line and get off at the station Champ de Mars. From there to the Eiffel Tower it is only a seven minute ride.
• Bus: The lines that pass by the Eiffel Tower are 42, 69, 82 and 87. From the bus stop to the Eiffel Tower you will have a journey time of approximately eight to ten minutes.
• Car: If you go by car you have to take into account that the Eiffel Tower does not have its own parking, but there are three parking lots that are very close to the monument: Pullman Tour Eiffel (it is the most convenient option as it is less than a minute walk away, in the direction 18 Av. de Suffren); Parking Paris Autocar (located at 443 Avenue Joseph Bouvard, approximately eight minutes away on foot), and Parking Indigo Joffre École Militaire (at 2 Place Joffre, approximately 10 minutes from the Eiffel Tower).
