How to Get to the Eiffel Tower
From the Paris Airports
The Paris Airports – Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Paris Orly (ORY) – are located a few kilometers north and south of Paris. Even if you at one of these airports only for a layover in Paris, it is possible to go to the Eiffel Tower if you have three hours or more.
The closest metro station is Bir-Hakeim, line 6. There’s also an RER C train station, Champ de Mars-Tour Eiffel, even closer to the Eiffel Tower location. If you are new in town, check out our quick guide to the Metro of Paris for the metro basics and our best tips.
