Such a beautiful building, literally awe inspiring. The long walk up all the stairs is quite intensely difficult if you re not fairly fit, but it s very much worth it! You can take the lifts, but in my view the steps is a more fun experience.

The views as you ascend are absolutely stunning; this is a truly unique way to see Paris.

Go early (try to get in when they first open) so you have a chance of getting through the queues in a reasonable time.

We had lunch in the restaurant in the tower and it was quite enjoyable, but nothing particularly special.
