Will be traveling to Paris 4/25 for a few days then flying from CDG to Athens. Due to the strike, wondering if the BigBus tours, Eiffel Tower, Seinne boat tours will be operating and/or will there be a risk of airport strikes and flight cancelations preventing our forward travel? Weighing out if best to postpone that leg of the trip. Will be staying near the Arc de Triomphe. I understand the garbage strike is back on as well. Any Intel appreciated.

AP is reporting that the strikes are getting smaller but more violent. They said most transit was running OK but the Eiffel Tower was closed again.

Are you thinking there will be a strike on April 25? I just see a General Strike on April 13 which would affect things that day only. I don't see any listed after the 13th. They announce things ahead of time.
Here is the strike announcement page. It's all in French but if you open it in Edge it will translate for you.

Here is the link to the ticketing page for the Eiffel Tower. It looks like it's sold out for April 25 and 26 but there are times available on April 27.

Microsoft Edge is an internet browser. I usually use Firefox but if I need things translated I open the Microsoft Edge browser and paste the web address in there.
