*The Bir-Hakeim Bridge is an excellent choice, especially on rainy days, as its roofed structure allows for protection from the weather while capturing images with the Eiffel Tower in the background. In addition, the river bank near the bridge is another good option, as it is less popular and offers a quieter atmosphere for photo shoots during the afternoon.
Trocadero is the most popular location to take photos with the Eiffel Tower. Due to its popularity, this site is often crowded. To ensure photos without too many people in the frame, it is ideal to schedule the session between sunrise and 9:00 a.m. However, even at those hours, it is common to have to wait to get the best angle.
Av Camoens has become very popular with tourists, so, like the Trocadéro, we recommend an early morning photo session. Even arriving early in the morning, there are likely to be lines for photos, so plan ahead with time and patience to ensure the best shots.
The riverbank is a lesser-known location, which makes it an excellent choice for photo shoots after midday. Here, you are likely to find fewer people, allowing you to capture quieter, uninterrupted images. In contrast, the place just below the Eiffel Tower tends to be very busy for most of the day, so we recommend scheduling photos early in the morning to avoid crowds and ensure a clear background.
