Construite sur le Champs de Mars, à proximité de l’ Ecole Militaire et face au Trocadéro , la Tour Eiffel est située dans le 7ème arrondissement de la capitale. Si vous décidez de vous y rendre en voiture, vous devrez trouver où stationner. Pour vous garer correctement à Paris, vous avez deux options : soit les parcs de stationnement, soit les rues. Saemes vous aide à faire le bon choix.

Le parking public pour le confort et la sécurité

Pour se garer au plus près de la Dame de fer , notre préférence va au parking Quai Branly-Tour Eiffel . Il est situé sous le musée Quai Branly Jacques Chirac , à 450 m (5mn à pied) du monument et votre véhicule y est vidéo surveillé 24h24 et 7J/7 . La 1ère heure de stationnement coûte 4,80 €, mais 3 heures : 14,40 € . Pour être sûr qu’une place vous y attend, vous pouvez même réserver à l’avance en cliquant ici .

Les parkings partagés 

Des sociétés comme Zenpark et Onepark vous proposent de stationner sur des places vacantes de parkings privés (hôtels, résidences, bureaux…) proches de la Tour Eiffel et disponibles en réservation via une application ou un site internet. Vous pourrez ainsi prévoir votre stationnement à l’avance. Saemes est partenaire de ces plateformes de réservation.

Les parkings aux portes de Paris et les parcs relais

Pour un stationnement moins onéreux, vous pouvez vous garer dans un parking situé aux portes de Paris , comme Bercy Seine (Paris 12ème) Charlety Coubertin (13ème) ou Porte d’Orléans (14ème). La 1ère heure est en moyenne à 4,00 € et les 3 heures aux alentours de 12,00 € . Vous pourrez vous rendre rapidement à la Tour Eiffel en métro ou en bus. Et si vous êtes prêts à vous éloigner encore un peu plus pour faire des économies , vous pouvez aussi opter pour les parkings relais . Ces parkings, en périphérie de la capitale, sont toujours à côté d’une gare. Les prix y sont variables mais toujours moins chers que ceux en vigueur dans la capitale. Si vous arrivez à Paris par l’Est, Saemes vous conseille Val d’Europe-Serris Montévrain avec un tarif d’ 1 heure à 1,60 € ; 3 heures à 4,20 € et 24h à 7,30 € , vous pourrez rejoindre le centre de Paris facilement en RER A.  

Stationner dans la rue, une solution tentante mais risquée

Avant de vous garer dans les rues de Paris , vous devez savoir que le stationnement y est payant du lundi au samedi de 9h à 20h . Pour la zone 1 (du 1er au 11e arrondissement), 1h : 6 €, 2h : 12 €, 3h : 24 € et que vous ne devrez pas stationner plus de 6h consécutives à la même place. Attention ! Une amende appelée Forfait Post Stationnement (FPS) peut vous être établie si vous ne réglez pas (ou pas suffisamment) votre stationnement, et son montant est de 75 € dans la zone 1 . De plus, le FPS correspond à un paiement pour 6h de stationnement à un emplacement donné. Vous pourriez donc même en avoir plusieurs dans la journée… Plus de 50 000 contraventions sont distribuées chaque mois.

Is parking dificcult in Paris?

Finding parking in Paris can be fairly difficult, especially because Paris is such a busy and populated city, visited by tourists year round. This is why, if you are looking for parking, your best bet is to pre book a parking space with Parclick. Here at Parclick, we provide you with lots of Parking options throughout all of Paris. You choose what works best for you!

2. Is there any free parking near the Eiffel Tower?

In an effort to reduce the capital’s pollution in 2015, the French government largely restricted the amount of free car parks. Only a small amount of parkings in Paris are free of cost, only 2,5% out of 273,095 parking spaces! This makes it very tricky to find a free parking spot, but luckily Parclick can help you secure a spot for the best price.

3. Where is the best place to park in Eiffel Tower?

If you wish to park near to the Eiffel Tower, we recommend the Quai Branly-Tour Eiffel car park , located directly under the Quai Branly Jacques Chirac museum. We think that it is the best place to park given that it is the closest to the Eiffel Tower only 450m away, equivalent to just 8 minutes walking.

4. Can you drive to the Eiffel Tower?

Although driving in Paris and near the Eiffel Tower means high traffic and busy streets, Parclick offers a range of different parkings in the city and closeby its most famous landmark. Amongst them, there is the Quai Branly-Tour Eiffel car park and the Saint-Dominique car park , to name just a few.

Other ways to access the tower by car include parking further and then using public transportation. To reach the Eiffel Tower by public transportation, you’re spoiled with choices! You can take the metro, the train (RER), the bus, the public bike share program Vélib’, or even a boat!

Getting to the Eiffel Tower by metro: Take line 6 to Bir-Hakeim station, line 8 to École Militaire station, or line 9 to Trocadero station.

Getting to the Eiffel Tower by train (RER): The RER C train will take you to the Eiffel Tower, leaving you in Bir-Hakeim station.

Getting to the Eiffel Tower by bus: 6 bus lines will take you to the Eiffel Tower. Take lines 30, 42, 72, or 82 to the Eiffel Tower stop, or lines 69 or 86 to the Champ de Mars stop.

Getting to the Eiffel Tower by bike (Vélib’): There are 4 Vélib’ docking stations nearby, including one at 2 Octave Gréard Avenue, one at 2 Quai Branly, another at 43 Rapp Avenue, and one more at 36 Suffren Avenue.

Getting to the Eiffel Tower by boat: The Batobus will take you on a short cruise along the Seine river to the Eiffel Tower.

5. Is parking expensive in the Eiffel Tower?

Parking prices in Paris depend on the area and district you wish to park in. Typically, the city center as well as areas of tourist interest will have higher prices whereas the peripheral areas are more affordable. Generally, prices in the points of interest and the center are higher than in other zones whereas in peripheral areas, prices are lower, often half the price of parkings in the center and touristic areas.

Parclick has a large number of car parks in Paris , and particularly inexpensive car parks close to Champ-de-Mars. From Champs-de-Mars , you can easily explore the rest of the city using line 6 of the metro and RER C (Bir-Hakeim station). From there you will be able to get to Château de Versailles , Gare Montparnasse or even Île de la Cité .  You can also take the batobus to Port de la Bourdonnais which runs along Quai Branly.

6. How much does it cost to go to the Eiffel Tower?

To go to the Eiffel Tower, tickets depend on means of access (lift or stairs) and on the floor you wish to go to (second or top floor). 

Ticket with lift access to the Second floor: 16.60 euros for adults and 4.10 euros for children 

Ticket with access by stairs to the Second floor: 10.40 euros for adults and 2.60 euros for children. 

Ticket with access to the top floor by lift: 25.90 euros for adults 6.50 euros for children 

Ticket with access to the second floor by stairs + access to the top floor by lift costs 19.70 euros per adult and 5 euros per child. 

Important to note: tickets for children under 4 years of age are free

7. Is the Eiffel Tower worth visiting?

The Eiffel Tower is without doubt a must-see in Paris. Standing tall at 324 meters it watches over the capital and is one of the most recognisable pieces of skyline in the world. Designed by the architect Gustave Eiffel for the World Fair in 1889, the Eiffel Tower receives an average of 7.1 million visitors a year making it the most visited paying monument in the world. We seriously recommend jumping on this particular bandwagon!

It has a small garden out the back called the Champ-de-Mars, which is just the 24.5 hectares of beautifully kept greenery stretching out into the middle of the city ;) 

This public park serves as a venue for all kinds of events and concerts and can be transformed into a FanZone during important matches. In 2016 the crowds were packed in like sardines to watch the national team come agonisingly close to victory on home soil at Euro 2016. At the same time, this site is the perfect spot for a brisk winter walk or a drowsy summer picnic, depending on the time of your visit.

8. Is the Eiffel Tower open for visitors?

Due to the Covid pandemic, the Eiffel tower is closed at the moment but as of July 16 of this year, the Eiffel Tower will reopen! From the 16 of July to the 30 August, opening hours for access by lift will be from 9:30 AM - 22:30 PM and by stairs from 9:30 AM - 17:30 PM. Note however, that the ticket desk will close at 10:30 PM yet the Tower will close at 11:45 PM. The Opening hours of September 2021 will be communicated at a later point in the year.

Walking on Red Square in Moscow: one of the unmissable things to do in Moscow

Iconic place and one of the must-see places in Moscow and even in Russia! Besides, if there was only one place to visit in Moscow in 2 days, this place would then be Red Square, without hesitation. Therefore, starting the city tour with Red Square is ideal . Several buildings are on the square, but not all of them have to be visited. Check out my blog post about Moscow’s Red Square in detail to learn more and not miss anything.

Visiting Saint-Basil’s Cathedral inside

Even more emblematic than Moscow’s Red Square! Built in the middle of the 16th century under the orders of Tsar Ivan Le Terrible, this cathedral is one of the most beautiful monuments of Orthodox art, and definitely one of the unmissable places in Moscow. Visiting Saint-Basil’s Cathedral inside is one of the most beautiful things to do in Moscow!

Take a walk in Zariadye park: one of the coolest things to do in Moscow after visiting Red Square

Zaryadie Park is just a 10-minute walk from St. Basil’s Cathedral, so it’s easy to include in your itinerary if you’re going to visit Moscow in 2 days. From its heights, you can see the red walls of the Kremlin. But, the most impressive point of view is the platform which overlooks the Moskva river. A must see! And clearly one of the coolest things to do in Moscow!

• Open 24 hours a day
• Good to know! Park Zaryadye is also a place to visit in Moscow in winter. Find out more here: What to do in Moscow in winter?

See the Bolshoi Theatre and discover the Kuznetsky Most district

The Bolshoi Theatre is the most famous Russian theater in the world. The most economical way to see a presentation at the Bolshoi Theater is to take the tickets on the theater’s official website in advance, so here is our tutorial to help you: How to buy entrance tickets to the Bolshoi? In addition, several pedestrian or one-way streets

The Bolshoi Theater is the most famous Russian theater in the world. The most economical way to see a presentation at the Bolshoi Theater is to take the tickets on the theater’s official website in advance, so here is our tutorial to help you: How to buy tickets to the Bolshoi? In addition, several pedestrian or one-way streets are located north of the theater. It is therefore very pleasant to find them to leave the main axes of the megalopolis.

Visit the Moscow Kremlin

Visit Kremlin is on top of things to do in Moscow. A place of power for centuries, the Kremlin then shows us a whole different image when viewed from the inside. If you want to visit Moscow in 2 days, the Kremlin is certainly one of the must-see places in Moscow.

• Opening hours : Daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., except Thursday.
• See our blog post about visiting the Moscow Kremlin

Visit the Cathedral of Christ the Savior

This impressive Moscow Cathedral is the seat of the Russian Orthodox Church. It is a must see if you visit Moscow in 2 days and clearly one of the things to do in Moscow. The Cathedral of Christ the Savior was first built in 1883 in memory of Russia’s victory over Napoleon’s Grand Army. Then in 1931 Stalin ordered its destruction. It was then rebuilt again (identically) only in 2000.

• Where? Ulitsa Volkhonka 15. At the foot of the Kropotkinskaya metro station.
• Opening hours . Daily: 10: 00-17: 00, except Monday: 13: 00-17: 00
• Free entry (some closing restrictions, for example a short)

Good to know! In orthodox religious places, one must avoid excessively uncovered clothing. Women should cover their heads. After visiting the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, you can explore Bolotny Island and Gorky Park. This is one of the routes our guide to Moscow.

The old Krasny Oktyabr factory: one of the coolest things to do in Moscow

If you cross the Moskva River by a pedestrian bridge which is located just in front of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, you will enjoy a beautiful view of the city and at the same time you can discover Balchug Island. Furthermore, if you want to visit Moscow in 2 days, you can include this island in your itinerary between the cathedral and Gorky park. Here is the old confectionery factory Krasny Oktyabr, which has gradually turned into a fashionable micro-district. There are then some elements of street art, cafes and restaurants and some Moscow bohemian side. At the end of the island you can see a gigantic 98-meter-high monument dedicated to the Russian reforming tsar Pierre The Great.

Good to know! You can find on this island are the trendiest nightclubs in Moscow. On weekends, there are taxi caps after midnight so there are so many people. On the other hand, if you go there in winter and during the day, the island is quite empty and less interesting to see.

Gorky Park is one of the TOP places to visit in Moscow, because it allows you to better understand the life of the locals and their rhythm. In fact, it’s a huge entertainment park. For example, in winter there is a giant ice rink and in summer – free dance or yoga lessons, sandy beaches for playing volleyball, an outdoor cinema. So, like the locals, have a Stakantchik (ice cream or cooked corn), and enjoy the atmosphere of the place: that’s one of the interesting things to do in Moscow to discover the city.

• Where? Krymsky Val 9. 20 minutes’ walk from Krasny Oktyabr, along the quays.

Sparrow Hill and Moscow State University

The Sparrow Hill, Vorobiovy Gori in Russian, is the highest point in Moscow. It is rather known to Russians, but less to travelers. A nice view on Moscow opens from the hill, and in particular on the Luzhniki Stadium. In addition, on the hill itself is the Moscow State University: an impressive skyscraper from the Soviet era.

• How to get there? By bus T7 (35 min) from Oktyaborskaya station, near Gorki Park. By metro (Vorobiovy Gorki station) + climb the hill on foot. On foot along the Moskva along the Gorky Park (1h30) + climb in funiculars.

Good to know! It is possible to cross the Moskva river by funicular. We actually tested it and it was pretty cool! That is one of our favorite things to do in Moscow!

What to do in Moscow in 3 days?

If you are going to visit Moscow in 3 days, it would be interesting to dive into the Soviet era which strongly marked the country and the city. After the Bolshevik Revolution, the capital was transferred from Saint Petersburg to Moscow, in order to mark the change of power. Moscow then became the world showcase for communist ideology. Here are the best things to do in Moscow for 3-day-trip!

VDNKh, visit Moscow of the Soviet era

VDNKh is a large exhibition center in the north of Moscow, where there are still several striking witnesses of the USSR. The most interesting are the Museum of Cosmonauts and the Statue of the Worker and the Kolkhozian , which will certainly impress you with its size!

GULAG History Museum

The explanations of the museum are very well done. We really have the feeling of going back in time. If you are going to visit Moscow in 3 days and you are interested in history and this subject in particular, I recommend this museum. Visit the GULAG History Museum is one of the most interesting things to do in Moscow.

Discover the Patriarche Pounds district

It’s a nice neighborhood in Moscow where you can come across rather affluent locals, but not necessarily very bling-bling. Take a walk in this area is really a cool thing to do in Moscow! In addition, the Ponds of Patriarch is one of the places of Bulgakov’s novel “Master and Margarita”. As this is an interesting area to see, we have included it in a walking tour of Moscow. The route ends at the Moscow Kremlin, which is very convenient, because you will be able to visit Moscow in 3 days by optimizing your trips.

What to visit in Moscow in 4 days: TOP things to do in Moscow in 4 days

If you want to visit Moscow in 3 days, you will already see a lot of things. On the other hand, if you stay one more day, you have plenty to do! The Novodevichy Convent, the Tchistie Proudy district and the Izmaylovo Kremlin are very good candidates for you, if you are going to visit Moscow in 4 days.

Visiting Novodevichy Convent in Moscow

The Novodevichy Convent is one of the most brilliant examples of Russian architecture, according to UNESCO. This beautiful complex was built in 1524 and today consists of the convent, but also of a cemetery whose status could be compared to that of Père-Lachaise in Paris. Visiting Novodevichy Convent is one of the great things to do in Moscow, if you want to go a little bit outside of the center!

Discovering Tchistye Proudy district

It’s one of the most popular areas of Moscow, with many cafes, restaurants and bars nearby. It is therefore a place to discover if you want to visit Moscow in 4 days. It is just as pleasant for a stroll as for the discovery of local life. For example, in winter the pond turns into an ice rink.

Visiting the Izmaylovo Kremlin, one of the coolest things to do in Moscow!

The Izmaylovo Kremlin is more of a tourist than a historic place. On the other hand, it is a pretty impressive place to discover, especially on weekends. Inside the Kremlin, there is a flea market where you can find a little bit of everything, but mostly good souvenirs to bring from Moscow. For example, chapka, traditional Russian scarves or matryoshka (Russian dolls). Add the Kremlin and the Izmaïlovo market to your itinerary if you are going to visit Moscow in 4 days, because it is a nice and very colorful place! Visiting the Izmailovo Kremlin is one of the things to do in Moscow, if you want to put colors in your Instagram account! 😉

In 4 days, we will have the opportunity to see several Moscow: Classic Moscow, Moscow of old Russia, Soviet Moscow and a little bit of the new Moscow. So what to visit in Moscow on the 5th day of travel?

What to visit in Moscow in 5 days?

Art lovers will be delighted to discover the Tretyakov Gallery and the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, while others will prefer to stroll along Arbat Street, see the buildings of Moskva-City or visit Bunker 42.

Admiring Russian art at Tretyakov Gallery

Founded in 1856 by an industrialist and great lover of art, the gallery has grown over the decades, and then bequeathed to the state. Today the collection includes more than 140,000 pieces, 15,000 of which are paintings. Visiting the Tretyakov Gallery is one of the things to do in Moscow if you want to discover Russian art!

• Where? Pereoulok Lavrouchinski 10. A 5-minute walk from Tretiakovskaya station
• Opening hours. Open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. until 9 p.m. Thursday and Friday. Closed on Mondays.
• Entry tickets. 500 RUB.

Visiting the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts

The Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts presents the treasures of ancient Egypt, the paintings of Rembrandt and Cézanne, a fine collection of Impressionism.

• Where? Ulitsa Volkhonka 12
• Opening hours. Daily: 10: 00-20: 00, except Thursday: 11: 00-21: 00. Closed on Mondays. The boxes close an hour before closing.
• Entry tickets. The prices vary according to the collections from 300 to 750 RUB.

Walking on Arbat Street

All Russians know Rue Arbat. So, walking on Arbat street is one of the things to do in Moscow. However, after the years, little by little it became very touristy. This is a pedestrian street only. There are souvenir shops, restaurants and cafes there, but it is no longer the most authentic neighborhood in the city.

Seeing the buildings of Moskva-City (Moscow City)

Moskva-City is Moscow’s business center, much like Paris’s Defense district. The skyscrapers of Moskva-City are among the tallest in Europe: 373 meters high! Very nice place to see at dusk.

Good to know! You can admire a nice view of Moscow City from the docks of Tarasa Shevchenko. It’s especially beautiful in the evening with all the lights on.

Bunker 42, one of the most unusual things to do in Moscow

Bunker 42 is a secret military complex which was to be used by the Soviets in the event of a nuclear attack: a space of 7000 m² 65 meters underground!

• Where? 5 Kotelnitcheski Lane, 11.
• Prices. 2200 RUB per person
• Opening hours. Open daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
• Restaurant inside. Original, but rather a tourist trap.

What to visit in Moscow in 6 days or more?

There are still so many places to see, because Moscow is a big megalopolis and there is always something exciting to do there. For example: the ancient Kolomenskoye village or the WINZAVOD contemporary art center .

If you are interested in history and want to see Russian cities on a rather “human scale”, it would certainly be interesting for you to discover the cities of the Golden Ring . For example, it is very easy to get to Sergey Posad from Moscow (less than 2 hours in train). Visiting the Golden Ring is one of the best things to do in Moscow if you are staying more than a 5-6 days.

There are still plenty of places to see in Moscow, however I did my best to list here the best things to do in Moscow, what to see in Moscow in one day, but also in 2, 3, 4 or 5 days in Moscow!

Eiffel tower facts, height & weight

An object of discord, desire and fascination, the Eiffel Tower never fails to impress. Enriched by a history full of new developments, here you can discover all of its key information.

Origins and Construction of the Eiffel Tower

It was for the 1889 Exposition Universelle , the date that marked the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution, that a great competition was launched in 1886.

Gustave Eiffel

Art and the Eiffel Tower

From the beginning the Tower was an attraction, but in the 1920s it became a symbol of modernity and the avant-garde. Little by little, its image was associated with Paris, until it even became its worldwide symbol.

The Eiffel Tower Laboratory

The Eiffel Tower was supposed to be destroyed only 20 years after its construction. To remedy the situation, Gustave Eiffel had the ingenious idea of crediting it with a scientific purpose – the Tower was saved!

History of the restaurants

For the Universal Exhibition of 1889, four majestic wooden pavilions designed by Stephen Sauvestre decked the platform on the first floor. Each restaurant could seat 500 people.
