Top Observation Decks in France

Dress for the weather, especially if you plan to go to the top. I was not ready for that chilly wind up there and it dampened the experience a bit.

I suggest getting your tickets online a day in advance to avoid those long lines. I thought I could just show up, but wow, the wait was crazy!

Bring a small picnic for the Champ de Mars park nearby. It’s such a chill spot and you can enjoy a fab view of the tower while snacking.

Check out the sunset view from the second level at around 8 PM if you can! The colors over Paris are just magical

I highly recommend checking out the local bakeries before hitting the slopes. Grab a few pastries and a coffee for breakfast—it’s not only delicious but way cheaper than buying food on the mountain. I found a great little spot called Pâtisserie Richard

I suggest visiting around sunset for the best views; the city lights up beautifully, and the colors in the sky are stunning. Trust me, it's worth the wait!

I think you should check out if they have any special exhibits before you go. I stumbled upon one that was incredible and totally unexpected!

I think you should wear comfy shoes; the way up can be a bit steeper than expected, and you'll want to enjoy the whole view without sore feet afterward!

I recommend grabbing some snacks before you head up; there's not much there, and the views will make you hungry. Plus, it saves some cash compared to the overpriced stuff you might find.

If you're a coffee lover, don't skip out on their coffee; it’s some of the best I had in Paris!

Try to visit Les Planches during sunrise or sunset. The views are breathtaking, and you’ll avoid the midday crowd. Plus, the light makes for stunning photos!

Check the weather before you go. I had a foggy day and couldn't see a thing! Clear skies in the morning are the best so plan accordingly.
