Tickets to Musée d'Orsay & Louvre

All went great. There was a new step to get into the Louvre that we did not know about, getting a reservation time. Their web site (the Louvre) could not handle all the traffic well and had to wait until the night after we got our vouchers to make the reservation. If you’re on a strict schedule, this could cause a problem. Not sure how to resolve this, maybe get our voucher numbers ahead of time would help.

It is worth the money only if you go to two places on the same day; if you don’t, you might lose money. The thing is that you might be too tired to be able to go to a second place the same day. And I am 34 years old, still with plenty of energy. It is also worth it for Versailles, as it is quite an expensive plan (27 euros the full entrance). You need to have spare time to go pick up the Paris Museum Pass (if you bought it online), as you have to have the physical card

It was really nice not to worry about tickets. But don't take the skip-the-line too seriously because there are so many people using the pass that there were lines, quicker though. And if you only came to Louvre museum to see Mona Lisa, you might have a problem at this time. Nevertheless, it is not the fault of the pass, but the fact that the museum is modernising. A lot of stuff was unavailable, but if you decide not to see Mona Lisa, you may have the rest of the 3rd floor almost for yourself.

A must have if you plan on visiting any of the historic places who accept the pass. Definitely saves money and time (skip the line with a separate entrance). During our stay and due to construction/covid we needed to a pick a time to enter the Louvre, but all the rest were skip the line.

So after getting to the louvre and finding out that all tickets were sold out (thanx to my friend) I was sulking when I eavesdropped in this couple having the same experience. The guy then said “we are all set” and headed off I found out what he did and got me a 2 day city pass. Long story short...got into the louvre. Also there are all these amazing museums in there that you can go to. After the louvre I went to musee de l’orangerie and saw beautiful monet’s and the museum was packed with impressionistic art!!! This pass is for sure a must!!! I plan on getting another next time I’m there to hot up another museum that has the unicorn tapestries.

I am so pleased I booked the ticket one week before I arrived Paris! It save me so much time for queuing to enter the lovely musees! The first day I walked to the collect the ticket in the office, the staff there are also very friendly and helpful xx J’ aime ils avec elles xx

Alex our guide was the best. 1. He spoke English very well and understood both the French and america customs and culture. 2. He took us to see the pieces of art that our private group was most interested in. 3. Great story teller! Connecting art history and artists throughout time. 4. Overall, best money spent.

The museums we visited were amazing. The small museum pass booklet was convenient. However, the pickup location for the booklet and canal tour confirmation was not conveniently located, and the staff inside were not the friendliest nor efficient. Had we known, we would have picked up the booklet the day before our passes would start because getting the passes the day of ate away time we could have visited a museum or two. There were some museums that we had to stand in the “no ticket holder/time slot” line to enter, which took over an hour before we got in. Plan ahead to maximize your museum experience.
