Skip the line is the only way to go in Paris! We only wish we had gone for timed entry as the line was much shorter.

We never received the email link with tickets. It said we could present the voucher at the venue, but they would not accept. I texted you for a ticket, but no reply. We had to buy additional tickets to enter museum.

We never received our tickets, contacted Viator and company that does the tours and received no response. A complete waste of money.

It was raining when we arrived and there was a huge line to get in so it was really nice not to have to wait and to make the most of our time in Paris.

You never sent me my tickets so I had to buy new tickets at the museum. I want a refund please. I also had booked this museum for yesterday but you never sent me my tickets. On both days I called you and you assured me I would get them.

i spent an hour and a half, wrestling with apps, email confirmations etc. from you lot and got no joy. had to throw myself on the mercy of the person working at the museum, who let us in anyway. shameful, anyone who asks will receive a terrible review of you from me, and i will under no circumstances be using you again

Better to just buy directly from the museum. Our tickets didn’t come in time, so we ended up buying them at the museum. The museum said this happens often & sometimes, the tickets never come.

This was my first time using Viator, and I purchased two tickets for the Musée de l’Orangerie. They indicated that the tickets would be sent in a separate email, but they never arrived. When I arrived at the museum, even two staff members familiar with Viator couldn’t assist in locating my tickets, forcing me to purchase new ones on the spot.
I contacted Viator to request a refund, but they refused. As a result, I ended up paying twice to visit the museum due to Viator’s poor service and incompetence. I find this company’s customer service appalling and would not recommend them. It feels like a scam.

Disappointing that due to a strike we couldn’t get in with our tickets with an assigned time. Came back later In afternoon when opened and could only visit one room with Monet’s Lilly pad paintings. The other room with Monet’s paintings being setup for a private event so could only peak in. All other areas of museum were closed! Paris needs to have a different process for managing grievances! Not a good way to treat visitors!

I never received my tickets after requesting them at 24 hours before, 2 hours before, and at the venue.
The phone number given was incorrect.
I would never use this company again and would recommend that nobody else should use them as well.
Mike_P, Oct 2024
I never received tickets only a voucher. Viator cheated me out of 40+ euro. Never again will I book here!!
Ellen_R, Sep 2024
Neither I nor the person taking tickets could figure out how to find my Viator pass to the museum. She said Viator is always difficult. She finally let me in because she knew I had paid, but I’m not happy with your service. I have another Viator entrance to the D’orsay tomorrow. Not happy with the probability that I will have the same problem then.
I wonder why you make it so complicated. Won’t be using you again.

Museum is fantastic. The pre purchased tickets were easy and made entering flawless. Beautiful museum
Jane_S, Sep 2024
I was not able to access my tickets through Viator once I arrived at the museum. I spent 30 minutes at the entrance trying. I ended up purchasing tickets at the museum. Your email required that I use an app, solve a puzzle, wait for an email code twice, and I still did not get access to the tickets I paid for. I was not happy as you can imagine. I’m waiting for a refund from Viator. I paid way more for the tickets through you than I did at the museum.
Allan_G, Sep 2024
I had to buy my own tickets and want a refund. The tickets for my reservation never appeared. Customer service at the museum told me that is happens regularly with Viator. Very disappointed
Carol_H, Sep 2024
The vendor was supposed to email the tickets 24 hours to the clients prior to the excursions. They did not.
the day before we called and left a message with no response. we then emailed them with no response. We took the receipt and confirmation to the museum ticket office and of course they did not accept the documentation. They agent my clients spoke to mentioned that they have had many problems with this vendor not emailing the tickets that have been purchased. my clients had to book new tickets . They bought a combo package that included the Orsey later in the week . They were concerned they would have the same problem. So I lost 2 sales. That is not the big issue here, the issue is the lack of customer service and the anxiety it gave to my clients and the time lost trying to get it straightened out at the museum. I hope Viator looks into this vendor and their complaints and stops doing business with them. Their lack of customer service is impacting Viator's reputation.
I called Viator's customer service to start a refund request. they were not very helpful wither . All they can do is submit a refund request to the vendor and wait for a response. Still waiting to hear back from Viator customer service.

Well. Didn’t go so well in that Viator had only sent the voucher and I could not find tickets in my emails. Reached out the day before to email contact listed but never heard back. Had Hotel concierge reach out and met with rudeness about resending tickets to my email. Said could not be done - really? Had museum clerk reach out as well and shot down again. Was admitted by very sweet museum attendant, but not their norm. Was advised by numerous hospitality professionals in France never to use Viator because known for their poor customer service. Will let all my friends know on social media.

Getting there early with our tickets in hand meant we could go immediately to the far room of Monet’s water lillies and enjoy them practically alone. Awesome!
ROBERT_B, Aug 2024
Police shut down the entrance due to an incident. Hung around for an hour but to no avail. Was granted a full refund. Things happen. Glad I booked with a quality firm.
Lynn_E, Jul 2024
Viator and operator failed to properly handle this purchase by not notifying that the Musée l'Orangerie would be closed on the booking date, Thursday 7/25. Several communications were sent to both and I spoke with an agent at Viator the morning of the event who also didn't inform the event was cancelled. Unnecessary international calling expense and time. Disappointed in level of service by Viator.

Do NOT book this!! You will not get a ticket, you will be sent a voucher that cannot be used to get into the museum, and Viator won’t refund you.
Tickets are only €11 and you can easily get them at the desk, where the manager himself says not to purchase tickets via Viator.
Paulina_Q, Jun 2024
We enjoyed having No lines
Easy for kids to enjoy.
Its quick. Its nice to be in the Jardins the Tulleries.
Graham_L, Jun 2024
It’s frustrating to have the paintings obscured by people taking selfies. I wonder if Monet would think they add to his work🧐😩 especially as they are for meditation… not possible!!
Susan_S, May 2024
Do not buy tickets thru Viator… they did not work, pdf did not download. As I scrolled thru the multiple.. unnecessary emails from Viator, with the museum staff.. trying to find an actual ticket…. The staff finally gave up and just let me in. VIATOR IS NOT the WAY to buy any tickets in Paris!!

The water lilies were enchanting. Almost felt as if I was transported to a different time and place.
Cathy_C, Dec 2023
Beware! We needed to cancel our trip to Paris for good reason. Refunds are not made even if you cancel more than one month in advance.
ladyeiffel, Oct 2023
The Museum was very nice and organized. We came to see the Monet’s but were impressed with the other exhibits. Highly , recommend.
Rachael_H, Oct 2023
Great value for money. A chance to see Monet’s Water lillies and a good selection of classic art works in an easy to mange museum that takes no more than 2 -3 hours.
Bruce_Y, Sep 2023
Viators tickets didn’t work for us and several others. The museum had no workaround and had to buy a second ticket.
Katherine_M, Sep 2023
Getting ripped off was not pleasant. Your communications are very strange. Paying is easy but getting a ticket and not just a "voucher" is not easy. Had to pay again!
