If there is just one thing you should do in Paris, this is it! The Eiffel tower is arguably the most romantic monument in the world. After all it located in the most romantic city ever. (In my humble opinion. I am also addicted to it, a little bit.) It is very easy to get to it on your own, by train or by public buses. Or if you insist on depending on the many tour buses that stop in front of it every few seconds you can do that too. But when I'm in Paris I prefer to use public transport or walk & explore the city on my own. Before you get there, check with the concierge of your hotel if they have an express pass. It helps by cutting your waiting time by half, at least. Once you are at the most magnificent monument in the world, you have a couple of options. You may use the elevator or stairs to go up to the first & second level of the tower & dine at the restaurants on either level. Or take the elevator to the third level, which is right at the top & enjoy the most amazing bird's eye view of Paris you will ever see. (Skip the champagne sold there, it's not worth it) If you can, go back at night. The tower is lit up with blinking lights every hour on the hour, for about 10 mins. In the background I could hear the music from the ferris wheel near-by. At first I did not realise that it was not part of the light show. But the experience could not get more 'Parisien' than that. I promise you will love it!

Offensive review?
