Definitely meant for art lovers of specific artists. Many, many sculptures and paintings so if you plan on doing an activity afterwards definitely decide what you'd like to see before going. Get! An! Audio! Guide! because unless you're a history buff it will be 900 times more boring for you and your family to not understand the context of the work, especially when you're passing other groups or individuals who seem way more intrigued while they learn about the work.

The Musee d’Orsay is a spectacular immersion into the large water Lilly murals of Monet as well as the seminal works of Renoir, Modigliani, Picasso, Cezanne, and other great artists. We thoroughly enjoyed the process of easily reserving a time and purchasing tickets on line, as well as the admission procedures at the museum!

Quick and easy access when you buy your tickets in advance. There’s so many sculptures and paintings you need to research and pick the ones you want to see before you go. One day is not enough for even just half of the collection you can see inside. So amazing we didn’t care at all that we stayed till closing time!

We were provided with a bar code for easy entry. Unlike our other bookings where we were just issued a QR code which did not grant us access. Electronic bookings should have electronic tickets; NOT tickets you have to print. Very difficult when you are on vacation. Will never use again for this reason.

The experience was great! 1/2 day is just about the right amount of time to see Versailles. Pickup was easy and well communicated. The tour guide was knowledgeable and sweet. We had a little over an hour to wander the gardens before getting on the bus back. Overall experience was terrific.

Our tour guide, Stephanie, was beyond incredible! She made every second of our tour extremely informative and amusing, especially for our tween twins. We'd recommend her and tour in a heart beat. Can't wait to do it again. Thank you for making our trip to Versailles so memorable!

Skip the line is the way to go to access miser d’orsay. However it was still a little crowded inside. I nonetheless, it made entering with reluctant teenagers much easier. We went straight to the impressionists, and loved being in the gorgeous space. Stayed 1.5 hours.

The museum is really fantastic! We spent hours there. Seeing the paintings for the first time was awesome. Be prepared with comfortable shoes you wont want to leave until closing time. Lunch at the 2nd floor restaurant was really good, food was interesting and tasty.

I bought this ticket just the day before. When I got there, the usherette told me that I should enter entrance A instead of C. She explained that there have been recent changes. Aside from that, everything was a breeze. I skipped the line and saved time.
Likely to sell out. Book in advance!
