La tour Eiffel

A symbol of Paris and more generally of France, the Eiffel Tower, built by Gustave Eiffel for the 1889 World’s Fair, is one of the world’s most visited monuments.
Visiting the Tower, and seeing its historic gardens and the breathtaking view of Paris from the top is an incredible experience. Walking out onto the glass platform on the first floor offers the unique sensation of walking in the void! In winter or in summer, you can enjoy a break on the terrace, 57 metres above the ground.
Arriving on the 2nd floor, you can enjoy the view of the Louvre, the Grand Palais, the meanders of the Seine, Montmartre, Invalides, Notre-Dame,...and also some delicious treats. It’s here that you’ll find the Michelin-starred Jules Verne restaurant, alongside a Pierre Hermé macaron bar and take-away food stands. Before leaving, stop off in the official shops to discover a selection of exclusive products bearing the Eiffel Tower brand and made in France, such as snow globes, stationery accessories, miniature Eiffel Towers, etc.
Final destination: the summit! On its two levels, one enclosed and the other open-air, you can stroll around and take in the unique panorama of the City of Light from a height of 906 feet (276 metres) while sipping champagne. Here you can also visit a reproduction of Gustave Eiffel’s office.
A gastronomic destination in its own right, the Eiffel Tower is also a testimony to French-style excellence. In addition to the Jules Verne with Frédéric Anton at the helm, offering a fresh take on the great classics of French cuisine, the Madame Brasserie offers Parisian bistro fare as prepared by Thierry Marx. Visitors will also find take-away food stands from the esplanade to the summit.
