The best place to be in Paris is in front of Eiffel tower at any time of the day, especially the night time during summer. I felt the way up was systematically organized. I had bought the timed tickets in advance which gave me a head start, I highly recommend everyone else to do so as well if you plan to go up. Don't miss the sparkles in the evening on the hour, every hour!
