Pro tips to help you make a pick

All tickets include entry to the 56th-floor indoor observatory and the 59th-floor rooftop terrace, offering 360° views of Paris. Note that the rooftop can only be reached by stairs (approximately 70 steps from the 56th floor), as there is no elevator service.

Tickets are timed, so you must select a specific entry slot when booking. Once inside, you can explore at your own pace.

Online tickets are at least €2 cheaper than on-site prices. They allow you to skip the ticket office and head straight to the lifts, saving you time and hassle.

Combine your visit to the tower with a tour of the vibrant Montparnasse neighborhood. Explore nearby attractions like Les Jardins du Luxembourg or the Montparnasse Cemetery to delve deeper into the area’s cultural and historical significance.

I loved the Catacombs. It was just as much of a must-see as the Eiffel Tower for my first trip to Europe and, inevitably, to Paris! I was very intrigued by it. I took the tour with the audio guide, which taught me a lot, and the music at times made the experience fascinating. Highly recommend!

We encourage anyone to take this subterranean tour provided it does not worry you to be deep down under the level of the city's sewers and metro tunnels. It feels like going to a different world and era. It's unimaginable to realize so many humans were exhumed from their graves and so methodically stacked within the miles of tunnels.

Fantastic experience, an amazing boat cruise where we admired all the most important sights of Paris: the Louvre, Notre-Dame, and the spectacular Eiffel Tower. An experience highly recommended in the evening, when the city lights make everything even more magical. Tickets were also purchased in advance to avoid the long lines at the ticket booths.
