Paris Museum Pass FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions What are the participating museums? There are over 60 museums and monuments in Paris and on the outskirts of Paris that participate in the program. You can visit the Louvre, Versailles, the Musée d'Orsay, the Rodin Museum, the Picasso Museum, the Arc de Triomphe, the Sainte Chapelle and many, many more. Why is the Paris Museum Pass worth buying ? The Paris Museum Pass is worth buying for anybody who wants to fully experience the museums and monuments of Paris. Participating museums and monuments charge between 6.50€ - 20.00€ for entrance. During peak tourist periods you will also have to spend a considerable amount of time waiting in line to buy your entry tickets. That means that if you are planning to visit two or more sites per day then it is a good idea to buy the Paris Museum Pass. You will gain valuable time to enjoy Paris, and you will probably save a considerable amount of money as well. What is the number one reason why I should buy it? Perhaps the greatest advantage of the Paris Museum Pass is the flexibility that it gives you. During your visit to Paris you will frequently find yourself in the situation where you see a famous monument that is not on your planned agenda, but it looks interesting enough to make a quick visit. But after considering the waiting time to buy tickets and the unplanned additional cost, you may decide not to visit. For example, visiting Notre Dame cathedral is free, but walking up to the top of the towers to see the great church bell and view of the city will cost you 6.50€ and a visit down in the crypt will cost you another 3.30€. Or while strolling on the Champs-Elysees, you see the Arc de Triomphe, and there are people walking around at the top, but you decide against walking up yourself, because it would cost 9.00€ plus a ten or fifteen minute wait to buy tickets, just to take a look. With the Paris Museum Pass, all of this is free; no waiting in line and no additional cost. What if i buy a 4 day pass and after I decide to extend it for 2 days? The Paris Museum Pass cannot be exchanged or extended. If you think you might want to visit museums for six days you should buy the 6 day pass. Or you could also buy 2 - 2 day passes and take a two day break from museums. How does it work? Decide how many days you want to spend visiting museums and monuments in and around Paris. Order the 2 day, 4 day, or 6 day Paris Museum Pass from this website. You must order one pass for every adult. Children under 18 can enter most participating monuments and museums for free.

You skip the ticket purchase line and walk straight to the entrance for ticket holders. Wrap it all up for me, what's the story in a nutshell? The Paris Museum Pass is something worth having. It gives you free admission to almost every museum, monument or cathedral you ever thought about visiting, plus a few more that you'll see or hear about while you're in Paris - all without waiting in line.
