How do you get from Charles de gaulle airport to the Eiffel tower?
Cabs are expensive and Paris has a superb public transit system, so you're better off going by train. There is an RER (commuter rail) station inside CDG, though it's a bit of a walk from most gates.
Take the RER Roissy line to the Gare du Nord (north train station). From there you can take either the connecting RER line to Champs de Mars station, or the Métro (subway/underground) to the Trocadero station.
A Métro ticket is good on either line; if you're planning on doing a lot of travelling be sure to buy a carnet (booklet) of tickets first because it's a lot cheaper than individual tickets. Also, hold onto your ticket because you need it to exit the system as well as enter it.
