I'm usually organized with planning our trips...this one slipped through the cracks! My 5yo has been dying to go to the summit of the Eiffel Tower - this is the reason that we are stopping in Paris for a day and a half before heading off to our next destinations. We were hoping to visit on June 29...and I realized today that we missed ticket drop and that the tickets are sold out.
I've read reports that there are additional tickets dropped at 1PM Paris time 7 days prior - is this still true?
Am I able to line up for tickets to the summit on the day of, and if so, how early should I plan to be in line? I've seen some posts from 2024 but my understanding was that tourism was different due to the Olympics.
