There are several options available including an Adult ticket, a Child ticket, a Senior ticket, and a Disabled Access ticket. The cost of tickets to the top of the E iff el tower depends on the type of ticket you would like to purchase.

It wasn’t that there was no availability to book the Eiffel Tower summit (top floor) nor the 2nd floor of the Eiffel tower, it was that there was no availability for pre-booked time slots.

I surprised my family with the quick trip to Paris from London so the visit was mostly unexpected.
