Experience Highlights
Without a doubt this is the best way to take in the City of Lights, during the day, or at night! Designed by Gustave Eiffel for the Universal Exhibition (a forerunner of the World’s Fair), and erected in 1889, it is now considered one of the modern wonders of the world. Since its opening the “Iron Lady” has been visited by millions if not billions of people. A symbol of engineering ingenuity, it’s a must do and see experience for anybody visiting Paris. Just be prepared because you’re going to be climbing 674 steps to get to the first viewing floor of the tower. Sounds tiring but it’s not! The views will keep you going. Note: visitors are not allowed to climb to the dome except in very special situations.

Step by Step
Beauty. Majesty. And Pride. Because you climbed 674 steps!
You’ll climb 674 steps to end up with a 360 view of one of the most majestic, historic, and architecturally magnificent cities in the world. It takes about fifteen to twenty minutes to walk to each of the first and second viewing floors. Not so bad, and entirely worth it.
Your camera or smartphone will be working overtime as you capture postcard perfect shots including the Invalides, the Arc de Triomphe, panoramic pics of the Seine and beyond. And of course, there may be no better backdrop for selfies and group photos. Say fromage!
And if you want to deconstruct the history of the tower and all it represents, make sure to add the expert guide option when you purchase your tickets. S/he will accompany you from the entrance to the viewing floors and back, filling you with the stories and facts that make the Eiffel Tower truly a modern wonder.
