    Thank you for the information about tours claiming that they can get you "cut in line" tickets - I've actually have seen two tour companies claim this. So, the last time that I was in Paris, my friend who lived there recommended that we go to a cafe and sit outside to see the Eiffel Tower light up/sparkle rather than go to the actual tower. A fun video topic might be about the best places to view the the Tower's light show at night.

      In fact, I had the idea of making a video about the best Instagram spots in Paris. A lot of them would be there for their view of the Eiffel Tower, so, not far from your idea 💡

      Two years ago, we purchased a ticket from a tour agent and the ticket allowed us to fast track our way to the elevators and up to level 2. Although the ticket was pricey compared to the official price, being fast tracked made it worthwhile.

    Thanks for the great breakdown. This is very useful. One quick Q: How long would you say an average visit would take, with all the different lines. How long in summer vs. not the summer :). Thanks!

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Good question! If you visit all levels, i'd say that the visit lenghth is between 90 and 120 minutes. Then, in summer, you can add 60 minute queue vs. 15 minutes at other times: you first have to queue for the security check, then (if you don't have a ticket) for your ticket purchase, then to take the lift that will bring you to the 2nd floor, and finally to take the lift to the 3rd floor.

    I remember what happened to Darren Stevens when him and Samantha were there... Maurice zapped him to the tower 🗼 Endora did her best to protect him and Sam wasn't too happy about that

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  Před dnem

      No, not to the top, only to the first level, and then you can walk to the second level.

    Really this is a very informative video. Can you tell me that how many times can we spent inside the Iffel tower? I mean to say having any tome bound from our booking time slot? Thanks.

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  Před 5 měsíci +1

      You have to be below the Eiffel Tower at the time you've booked, but then, when you're up, you can stay as long as you want.

  • @mayacrossthemiles
    @mayacrossthemiles Před 2 měsíci +1

    Hello and thank you very much for the video!! Please help. If you want to visit at sunset, how many hours in advance would you advise booking the ticket for? Thank you!!

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Just book an hour before sunset. You can stay as long as you want there.
      And to know when that is: www.sunrise-and-sunset.com/fr/sun/france/paris

    ❤❤❤ We can’t find tickets online for the elevator .
    Only the stairs😢 we are worried it could be too much for our little son that is disabled (autistic ) from the ground to the second floor. Maybe the queue is too long ?
    What you would advice in that case? Thank you

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  Před 2 měsíci

      It's a lot of stairs to the second floor, 674.
      You may find tickets with get your guide, but they will take a high margin. Maybe only the first floor with 327 stairs.

    thanks a lot for the wonderful videos, We are plannng to visit In Jun but the official site says the tickets are sold out. So what are our options?

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  Před 6 dny

      You can go directly to the tower and queue to get a ticket. There is a big chance that the third floor will be complete, then.
      Or you can use a site like "Get your guide" and pay the double or the triple of the normal price.

    Great video! The gift shop in the tower apparently sells overpriced souvenirs. Do you know where to get reasonably priced ones near Eiffel?🤔

    Hi there, Could I ask a question please. How to the tickets work? I have 2 tickets which are for 3.00pm. So how does this work, when would I queue to use the ticket for 3.00pm? Or do I go straight in with a timed ticket? Thank-you in advance. It has been stressing me out a little :)

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  Před 9 měsíci +3

      First you have to queue for the security check, then people without tickets will have to queue for purchasing a ticket and other people would go directly to the queue for the lift.
      So, if I were you, I would arrive there 20 to 15 minutes before your ticket time.

    I have a timed ticket for 1430. Does this mean that we need to have passed security and be at an elevator at 1430?

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Here's the official answer:
      The visitor, with their paper Ticket or mobile phone, presents themselves at the visitor reception located in front of the pillar in operation no later than the time indicated on the Ticket. Access is in the order of arrival of visitors in possession of a Ticket for the current time slot.
      In case of presentation beyond the time indicated on the Ticket, late visitors will only enter if the maximum limit of visitors in the following time slot is not reached. Late visitors will access the elevator depending on the number of visitors, priority being given to Customers respecting their passage times.

      The officials in Eiffel tower are bunch of racists that only allow people of their preferred race on the elevator, if you go past their specified appointment time even when the crowd is less. Others have to use stairs. This tower is just a hype, and a junkyard of rotten iron and steel. You will be ill treated if you miss your appointment. Poor toilet facility and cheating mafia around the place. Movies have hyped the place so much as if love can be born only here. The tower is not even that tall and gardens around it have been fenced. They are earning lot of money with the hype but hardly bothered to spend for the visitor's benefit. Pigeon shit is what you can expect down the tower.

    Will there be a long queue during the Paris Olympics & Paralympics when everyone else is watching in different sporting venues? Hmm…🤔

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  Před 3 měsíci

      One simple answer: yes!
      Considering the number of people expected during the OG, expect queue at every recommended restaurant!

  • @maxinenall9950

    Just to let you know: it's against the law to take pictures of the Eiffel tower at night 😱 It's a copy right law in France. Hope they don't see you website 🤦

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  Před 11 měsíci

      Yes, I know that. But they just don't care about a small CZcams channel, all what they are interested in is receiving copyright money from movies or ads...
      But thanks for telling me 🙂
