The Arc de Triomphe (Arch of Triumph) is a Neoclassical take on the ancient Roman triumphal arch style. Fifty meters tall, the view from the platform atop the arch is well worth the hike.

The view from the top of the arch is worth climbing the 284 stairs. From your privileged position, survey all of Paris. Unlike the obligatory Eiffel Tower trip, getting into the Arc de Triomphe is an effort not all tourists undertake.

Explore the city of love with a romantic river cruise! Seeing Paris from the Seine is an experience to remember forever. There’s the Eiffel Tower casting its shadow over the city, and Notre-Dame Cathedral, still impressive despite the disastrous fire. Gaze at the Gothic palace and former prison known as the Conciergerie, and see the Musée d’Orsay, a former railway station that’s now home to French art. This scenic tour includes commentary along the route. Listen, learn, and fall in love!

We went at dusk as recommended and the panoramic views of the city as the lights were turning on were stunning. We deliberately came for around 6pm so we could also view the active remembrance at 6:30pm. This is worth watching too at the foot of the Arc. We then went back on the roof to watch the Eiffel Tower illumination from sundown every hour.

Hay que prepararse para subir tantas escaleras pero la vista desde arriba es magnífica, yo subí de tarde noche así q pude ver la torre Eiffel iluminada

Very cool experience to be inside of a monument. Make sure to get there early because the line will be long even with advance tickets (though you could get a timed ticket). Excellent historical information and terrific views on the top. Definitely recommend. The river cruise through Paris on the beautiful Seine river completed the day!
