Can you see the Eiffel Tower and Louvre in one day?


Can you see the Eiffel Tower and Louvre in one day? Yes, you could probably do those all in a day, especially if you don't intend to linger for hours at the Louvre, which it's entirely possible to do. But if you have 9 days in Paris it would make more sense to group things more logically, instead of criss-crossing Paris to get from one thing to another in a single day.


What day is best to see Eiffel Tower?

Saturdays and Sundays are the busiest days of the week. When it is not peak season, school vacation or a public holiday, attendance is usually lowest on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. The Eiffel Tower is open on Tuesdays, unlike museums in Paris.


Is 2 hours enough for Louvre?

The Louvre palace is huge, with over 400 rooms and 35,000 artworks! It's impossible to see everything in one day. If you only have an hour or two, we recommend visiting the Denon wing, which houses some of the most famous masterpieces (Mona Lisa, the Winged Victory of Samothrace, The Raft of the Medusa, and more).


Is it better to stay at the Louvre or the Eiffel Tower?

If you stay near the Eiffel Tower you will generally be in a quieter and residential (and in my opinion, more charming) neighborhood than if you stay near the Louvre, but you might be cut off from more attractions.


Is a 7 hour layover in Paris enough time to see the Eiffel Tower?

With seven hours, you should be able to get into Paris and see the Eiffel Tower if you know exactly where to go and how to get around. It would be tight, though. I wouldn't try to do anything more than that, unless losing your connection would not be a big deal (hourly flights or something like that).


Can you see everything in Paris in one day?

I'll start by laying it out plainly: no you definitely can't see everything in just one day in Paris. The capital of France is a big city with a lot of sights, varied architecture, plenty of museums, great restaurants and so many gorgeous streets to wander.


How long should I spend in the Eiffel Tower?

It is advisable to plan a visiting time of at least 1 1/2 hours for visit to the 1st and 2nd floors and 2 1/2 hours for a visit to the top. Your visiting time will also depend of your choice of way to ascent from the ground to the second floor : by lift or stairs.


What is the best month to visit Paris?

We recommend visiting between October and April — sidestepping the jam-packed holiday season in December — if your main objective is to avoid crowds. Go at the beginning or end of that window, October or April, for temperatures still comfortable enough to sit outside at one of the quintessentially Parisian cafe tables.
