Musée d'Orsay Tours & Tickets

The pass was wonderful although we didn’t use it for a lot of the attractions. But getting in ahead of the line was perfect. Obtaining the pass was really not that easy. We had to go to a small out of the way office. It should be far more available. However we recommend having the pass.

Our guide greeted us at the appointed place (and waited the 20 minutes we were late due to bad traffic) and then skillfully and joyfully guided us through the Musee d'Orsay with wit and humor. She made the artwork come alive and we felt that we really learned a lot. We were able to focus on important sample works while not toiling through every single piece of art. That way we got through the entire museum in 2 hours which was about all we could last for. It was totally worth the money! Fantastic.

It was a great experience with the beautiful views at the top deck and the warmth and commentary on the bottom deck. Drinks and snacks were also available for purchase. Overall great experience! It’s important though to go early as the crepe place closes at 20:00 !!! So unfortunately we missed that

Everything was perfect. There were a lot of people on the upper deck but just managed to find 2 seats. You have to have experienced it. Left at 8pm and it was perfect. Then another crêpe that not only tasted great but was also very nutritious. So deserves 5 stars.

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!

Had to wait in the line for 20-30 minutes, which isn’t too bad for Paris, really. Museum is unsurprisingly impressive, and even though there ate always tons of people - it doesn’t seem crowded considering the scale of the building. The real downside for me that it was quite stuffy in there, so I probably missed half of paintings and sculptures since I rushed outside to get some fresh air. All in all it’s a nice museum, but more air and less people in the queue would have been lovely.

This guided tour started really well when our guide, Claire, skipped the line with our group and we went right in at 9:30am. I like that she started the tour promptly. Claire gave an excellent review of the French painting from the mid 1800s to the First World War. This museum is beautiful and much easier to navigate with a knowledgeable guide

Guide, Noha, was excellent. My wife had been looking forward to this trip and unfortunately developed a bad cold just prior. She made a list of all the pieces she wanted to see and Noha readily accommodated her. Her depth of knowledge of the museum and the pieces was remarkable. When our time was over my wife was physically fading. Noha made certain we were able to get transportation back to our hotel. Service above and beyond! We would both highly recommend Noha and this service!

With the background of our guide Lily,our tour was spent connnecting art to the political and cultural events of the time period. Lily was extremely well educated in art history and we were able to appreciate the art we saw and understand how it fit in with the time period. This tour was definitely the highlight of our time in Paris!!!

We bought the 2 day Paris Museum Pass, we definitely got our monies worth. We did the Louvre and one other museum the first day. We booked an entrance time for the Louvre early. On the second day we booked a time for the l’Orangerie , then we did the Arc de Triumph, Hotel des Invalids, the Rodin Museum and finally the Consiergerie. They were all excellent.

My fiancé and I took a tour with Belen. In one word: fantastic. She was passionate and extremely knowledgeable. As we walked through Musee d'Orsay, she gave us a unique insight into the lives of the artists and walked us through history. We learned an extraordinary amount from her, and would specifically recommend Belen to everyone.

We had Boris as our guide and he was awesome! Punctual and so approachable. Extremely knowledgeable and gave us so much insight to the painting ha, the building itself, and much more. We wished we could have more time to listen to all he knew. Great experience and would highly recommend.

It was absolutely amazing! We learned so much from our tour guid, Romain. He walked us threw time and he was able to give inside tips that maximized our time at each museum. We never felt rushed yet we were constantly on the move, which was perfect for our family with 2 teens.

Tina was an extremely wonderful tour guide. I went on a tour with 3 others on a Sunday morning, and this small group was perfect. Tina was very knowledgeable about art history but presented the tour in a way that allowed us to learn about the pieces in the context of French history and the changing culture of art. I would highly recommend it to others.

First visit back to Paris - and MdO - since Covid. Worth planning two days - but never do. One side or the other downstairs. Quick pre-lunch walk through the Impressionists on the top floor before the iconic restaurant. And then re-explore the Impressionists - Monet, Pissarro, Cezanne etc and then the Post Impressionists - Van Gogh, Gaugin. Was all set to leave at 3.30pm and sprint round the Orangerie but was way-payed by the Gaudi exhibition. Outstanding.

Avi was an incredible tour guide. I cannot emphasize that enough. You can tell he is truly passionate and knowledgeable of the art. He kept us engaged every step of the way and told the artists’ and paintings’ stories in a perfect format. I will recommend this to my friends and family.
