    A true French monument in steel that has withstood the times like every other structure in Paris. View from the tower is amazing. Get early and hope its a clear day. No showers and wind and you get 360 view of Paris

    The online ticket sales are a scam
    Online ticket sales are a scam. When I went to buy tickets for the Eiffel Tower online it said tickets to the top are sold out and I could only buy tickets to the second floor. So, I purchased two tickets for the second floor. However, on the day of my visit when I arrived the place was almost deserted so went up to the ticket office and the lady there said there is tickets to the top for sale but I couldn't get a refund for my original tickets or pay the difference of the cost. This is a complete money scam to get people to buy tickets online and then again when they visit.

    Just outside
    I visited the Eiffel Tower about 15 years ago so I was surprised to see the "visitor center" build below it. I have to say that it's not an improvement from the viewers point of view but perhaps it was needed for thw tourist who go in. Before it was possible to walk under the tower but no longer. Als there were fenging around the park area behind the tower.. not very pretty. Anyway the tower is always on impressive sight to see. Perhaps one day I will go inside too.

    Magical at night
    You can't go to Paris and not visit the Eiffel Tower. We decided to go at night as the day time was a bit grey. We booked tickets online before we travelled, I'm glad we did as the queue were very long. You can't walk underneath the tower anymore because if security reasons which is fair enough. We had booked tickets for the lift, I'm glad we did as it was very cold and it takes time to get up to the top through the various levels. The views are breathtaking, every hour at this time of year the tower essentially sparkles - which you have to see to believe. It is busy up there but you're not rushed to get back down. It's so worth a visit.

    Lovely to see, amazing when lit up at night
    We went on a day trip to Paris so time was limited. We were unable to book tickets in advance however queues were minimal. We only had an hour to spend at Eiffel Tower and at €25 each we were about to enter however we were carrying a bottle of champagne which is forbidden so had to cancel. However, fabulous to see, lots of tourist stalls selling souvenirs at good prices.

    Worth to see, but don't bother going up the tower
    It's a bit surreal when first standing there and taking in the Eiffel Tower. The website to buy tickets to go up the tower is confusing, and the dinner at the Eiffel is definitely not worth it. The lines to enter feel like you're in Disneyland. Long lines, winding around, and several security checks. The elevator is PACKED with people and when you get off it's super crowded, kids running around. It was a bit much. We had tickets to dinner. It took us 1 hour just to get through the lines and get to the level for dinner. Then we had tickets to go to the top for champagne. Again, overpriced and packed. We had to take stairs then get another elevator to reach the top. By the time we were done, I was done. It was too many people, too crowded, not worth it. I would have been fine to sit on the grass and look at the tower instead of the craziness trying to go up it.

    ok in daylight, but the tour is disorganized
    We took this as part of the paris pass. Had an early reservation to ensure that we did the 'harder tour (walkwise) early. The tour guide was a little late, the eiffel tower delayed entry for a variety of reasons, then you had to wait on line for the guide to buy the tickets. We were well over an hour behind which caused us to miss out next reservation...was one of the least favorite

    Chaos
    Went with my wife for our wedding anniversary overall experience was mediocre scenes of chaos filling lifts with as many people as possible security staff stand and watch just do nothing to make anyone feel safe. Overall disappointing experience wouldn’t go back again just needs organising to make people feel safe. I wouldn’t recommend taking children during peak times.

    When in Paris, you simply must...
    It wasn't until I visited Paris that I realized that you can take your whole family and walk up the Eifel Tower and see all the views and experience the beauty. I mean, I knew people could take elevators to the top, but I thought those were reserved for high rollers and such. I did not know that thousands of people climb the stairs or take one of many elevators up to see the views every single day. You only have to wait in line for about 45 minutes and the cost is not much at all. Definitely recommend it, There was nothing to not like about this iconic landmark.

    Great value for money - atmospheric at night
    Bought on foot tickets to the second floor. Great experience. No queues straight in - although your tickets are checked about four times! Great security and felt safe. Definitely got out steps in up to the first then second floor . The views were amazing. Visit was at night and wld recommend that time Dow the atmosphere and the fantastic light show seeing the tower lit up. Well worth the money

Most of the staff were friendly, the food at the cafe on the first level was good but over priced, the views are amazing. Loved seeing Gustav Eiffel's office at the very top. Do it once because it's iconic.

This landmark is nothing short of amazing. You can see it from most places in Paris and it’s just stunning. I have been up it before and didn’t feel the need to go up again. It was just great to get good photos off it. Best place for pics is definitely Rue de L’universite. Combines street with landmark

Loved our trip to the summit.
Enjoyed champagne at the top while watching day turn to night. Beautiful once the city began to light up. Key to our success was to buy tickets 60 days in advance. Queue wasn’t too bad- about 30 minutes from when we entered line to when we got to 2nd floor. Then another line (about 10 minutes) to go from 2nd floor to summit) Line for elevators coming down was slow so next time might consider taking stairs down (but it was a bit chilly outside)
