Of course, there is nothing more symbolic of Paris than the Eiffel Tower. If you are looking to create a romantic evening for you and that special someone, consider basing a dinner date and tour of Paris around the Eiffel Tower.
Dinner at the Eiffel Tower is an experience that no one will ever forget. The tower boasts of two restaurants. One is on the ground level and offers traditional French cuisine; plan ahead and make reservations because there is usually at least a two week wait. The décor is eclectic, and the dress is somewhat formal. Patrons should wear something nicer than jeans and trainers.
The second restaurant is located on the second level of the tower and is also a level higher in cost, atmosphere and attire than the ground floor restaurant. Expect to pay a premium for everything from drinks to entrees. However, if you are looking to create an unforgettable evening, it will be worth every penny.
The second level of the Eiffel Tower offers a view just as magnificent as the view from the top, yet you are protected from the strong winds and other elements that a visit to the top brings with it. Not to mention, there is almost no wait to reach the second level, whereas the wait to attain the highest level can knock the romance out of the most elegant pair. Therefore, visitors will not be missing out by staying closer to the ground.
Following your Eiffel Tower dinner, a lazy boat ride down the Seine will be the finishing touch to your night. As the boat winds down the river, you will see locals dancing along the banks of the Seine as sumptuous music fills the air. The dark river will stretch before you as you become ensconced in the atmosphere that is so uniquely Parisian. As the boat winds back up toward the Eiffel Tower, the tower will erupt in lights that sparkle and twinkle before your eyes. You will be breathless as you take in the symbol of love and romance that seems to light up just for you.
Nestling into the arms of someone you love will never feel as decadent as when you are gliding down the Seine on one of these Paris tours. When your holiday is over, you can look back with joy and sigh, “We’ll always have Paris.”
