We are taking our 10 year old daughter to Paris for the 1st time in February. Mainly to go to Euro Disney (but thats for me). We are staying by the Eifle tour. On the Sunday we want to go up the tour but also want to go to Sacre Cour. Would it be best to go the teh tour in the morning and Sacre cour in the afternoon or the other way round?

Go to the tower fifteen minutes before it opens, i think around 9h15 for the opening at 9h30, then you shouls be among the first ones to go up. Then you have the rest of the day to go to Montmartre, with a visit of the Opéra garnier along the way i would recommend.

Correct spellings/terminology to assist in your research:
Tour Eiffel
Montmartre
Sacre Coeur
It isn%26#39;t called %26#39;euro Disney%26#39;... it%26#39;s Disneyland Paris.

If you are planning on spending much time touring around up in Montmartre with a 10 year old in tow, you had best research the route and stops for the MONTMARTROBUS---which begins and ends its %26#39;circuit%26#39; up through and around Montmartre at Place Pigalle (Blvd. de Clichy %26amp; rue Houdson)

Another option for touring about the city for a day, with a young child in tow is the %26#39;hop-on/hop-off%26#39; L%26#39;Open TOUR buses. These open upper-deck tour buses make regular %26#39;circuits%26#39; thoroughout the city with four(4) inter-connected and transferable routes--

Simply because any visit to Montmartre, Pigalle, the Sacre Coeur, the Place du Tertre, etc. involves hills, steps and cobblestones, I always plan that visit in the morning when I%26#39;m fresh and rested. After lunch at the Place du Tertre, you can walk downhill to Pigalle, and if you venture down as far as the Place de Clichy, the Metro ride with a change at CDG/Etoile to Trocadero will put you within an easy walk to the Eiffel Tower.
