Please check your email the day before the tour for important information.
Please note that the number of attractions depends on the selected option.
We will make efforts to pre-book your entrance tickets to the Musée d'Orsay to avoid waiting in line at the ticket office, but you will have to wait in line for ticket validation and mandatory security checks. Admission includes the main exhibition only, tickets for temporary exhibitions are not included.
Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois is open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Church tours during mass and special events (such as scheduled concerts) are limited, therefore the guide may provide all information outside.
The 3,5 and 5,5-hour options include an estimated 1,5-hour transfer time between the meeting point and the accommodation address provided when booking. Please note that the transfer time quoted is for information purposes only and the exact schedule will depend on the distance and traffic.
We will arrange private transfers in a standard car (sedan) for groups of 1-4 people, and in a larger van or minibus for groups of 5 people and more. If you're traveling in a smaller group but want to travel in a more spacious car, we recommend booking a 5-people tour to take advantage of a larger vehicle.
Due to museum regulations, we will limit the size of the group to maximum 6 people with 1 licensed guide.
This is a private tour/activity. Only your group will participate
