Next time you visit Paris, be sure to check into the Paris Museum Pass. SAVE HOURS OF TIME – NO STANDING IN LINE AT EVERY MUSEUM, save money too; 2, 4, or 6 day passes available http://www.parismuseumpass.com/en/home.php Good for Louvre, Musee d’Orsay, Notre Dame; Pompidou Modern Art, St. Chapelle, Arc de Triomphe, Picasso & Rodin museums, Palace of Versailles & much more; purchase at any participating museum, Charles de Gaulle Airport, or Paris Tourism office on Champs Elysees, & major Metro stations.
- Buy Museum Card.
- Look for signs at each museum you visit; indicates special door for Pass Holders.
- Sail past these folks! You just saved an hour, and went to the head of the line.
I waited in line for hours at the Louve and Musee d’Orsay. Didn’t know about the pass then. I waited almost 2 hours in line at St. chapelle…hardly worth it.
Whoa that’s a great idea!! I’ll try that next time I’m in Paris. Do they do this in other French cities too?
Very great info! I’m going to share that with friends going to Paris soon.
