Can you buy Eiffel Tower tickets at the tower?

The ticket offices at the Eiffel Tower open at the same time as the Tower and therefore it is not possible to purchase a ticket before the Tower opens. This is why we suggest that you purchase your ticket online to avoid having to queue at the Tower. You can purchase a ticket and book the date and time of your visit.
