Super easy access to the museum. Had the flexibility to arrive when we liked. We went around 10 AM and had no waiting. The museum is air conditioned and not as crowded as others, with plenty of places to sit and take in the art. Great visit!

Impressionism on Steroids

Karen_P, Jun 2026
If you love the Impressionist period, this is a must see museum. Here you will find famous paintings by Monet, Van Gogh, Renoir, Sisley, Manet, etc.

Purchasing tickets for...

Tara_M, Jun 2026
Purchasing tickets for the Museé d’Orsay was easy, even in mid June prior to our visit a few weeks later. I was so glad I found the tickets through Viator because the museum websites were already sold out on the days we would be in Paris. Text reminders weee really helpful and the whole process was easy and trouble-free.

Excellent Experience

Elaine_C, Jun 2026
Impressive collection. Wish the line for restaurant moved faster.😃. Loved the Monet rooms. Seurat area was small, but great.

Terrible decision

Cynthia_B, Jun 2026
Unable to access my tickets so had to buy them at the museum. I will NOT be using Viator again. Recommend buying tickets directly from the museum websites.

Unexpected inconvenience

Sandra_R, Jun 2026
I took my daughter to Paris for the first time earlier this month and booked this as another planned activity. I never received the ticket barcode through email or through WhatsApp. I also never received any notification of any issues. I was ultimately forced to repurchase two tickets upon arrival to the museum. It was definitely unexpected and inconvenient :(

Christine_H, Jun 2026
Was a great way to visit the museum when tickets online were already sold out. We also had the freedom to go at anytime that particular day, very convenient!

Great museum

Mary_T, Jun 2026
Lovely art museum, great works of art, organized well, very clean, quick amd easy to enter, and air conditioned.

Great visit. Wonderful...

Bernadeen_O, Jun 2026
Great visit. Wonderful exhibits and in a great and stately building as well. Nice and calm atmosphere in which to enjoy the wonderful works of art!

Fabulous Gallery

Helen_B, Jun 2026
A little wait outside for open day tickets when gallery opened but not so bad. The Impressionism gallery on the top is incredible. Beautiful architecture throughout. Though large number of people queueing to get in such a large gallery didn’t feel cramped at all.

Museum was great once we...

Larry_P, Jun 2026
Museum was great once we got in. Ticket not accessible and had to stand in line to purchase tickets - not happy

Get into the museum every...

Anastasia_K, Jun 2026
Get into the museum every hour if the date you have booked, without to be anxious 9f the time you have reached the museum

Everything as expected.

Shirley_C, Jun 2026
This is just the ticket. Loved having the flexibility to go anytime of day. Ticket delivered as expected. I had to cancel (and I re-booked as plans changed) and there was no issue. Very happy with this provider. The museum itself is spectacular. Very manageable compared to the Louvre . It was crowded when I went but I expected this.

tickets was sent via...

Yang_Y, Jun 2026
tickets was sent via email the day before. downloaded to my phone with bar code. First, there is no separate entrance, there is a long line for 2.2 entrance and then when you finally got to the entrance, the bar code was not valid. Fortunately, there is a nice staff.helping out and find the right code to use. Not very smooth experience, needs better instruction.

Super easy and efficient

Christine_M, Jun 2026
Absolutely seamless way to see the museum D'orsay. Not sure why others said they had a problem! It almost kept me from doing it through Viator, which our family has always found to be reliable. This was no exception! The day before we received a barcode and entered the museum with no problem through the exact entrance we were told. We were able to see every exhibit without an issue. I highly recommend as the museum website was booked up and much more confusing. We were very grateful for this option to see this fantastic museum!

Worked for entrance to muesum

Sabrina_P, Jun 2026
Decided to get last minute tickets because of the extreme heat but the tickets on the muesum site were sold out. Ordered these the night before and they worked flawlessly. Walked right through the line for those with tickets but no set time, then through security and then scanned in the muesum. Very easy to use.

Expensive to save very little time.

Jim_L, Jun 2026
Lined for tickets were not long at all so these didn’t save much time. We definitely paid more than the walk up ticket prices. Great museum though.

Flexibility on Schedule!

Gregory_P, Jun 2026
by using Viator, we were able to avoid having to select a particular time to visit the Orsay. That flexibility was crucial for us. The Orsay Museum is a treasure that should not be missed. Viator could improve the experience by sending tickets directly to the app after purchase. Finding the links in the email and clicking through to the tickets was a bit confusing and needlessly cumbersome.

Worth the visit.

Donald_C, Jun 2026
The museum was very nice. Staff helpful and not overworked. Art was what one could expect from a sister of the Louvre.

Viatour cancelled an hour before our Louvre tour

Julie_G, Jun 2026
Viator cancelled our family semi private Louvre tour—an hour before scheduled—because the tour guide had a medical emergency. Viator had no substitute This was the only open day in our itinerary. So my family did not see the Louvre on our Paris trip, though we had reserved this tour weeks earlier.

Allowed Us To Visit

Janet_S, Jun 2026
We had not realized we needed to buy tickets weeks before our trip. When we arrived in Paris all the museums we had hoped to see were sold out. We paid more for the tickets through Viator but they worked and we were able to get in.

Amazing Visit at the Musee D’Orsay

Beatrice_S, Jun 2026
I try to visit the Musee D’Orsay on every opportunity I visit Paris. It is a temple of beauty like no other in the world.

We enjoyed the Orsay very much!

Shevaun_L, Jun 2026

Susana_K, Jun 2026
The instructions related to the entrance to the museum were not clear. We couldn’t find entrance C1. We enjoyed the impressionist exposition very much. The building is very special

A great museum to visit

Bonita_F, Jun 2026
This is a do not miss museum in Paris. The works of art on the 5th floor are incredible. It includes many artists that I’ve heard of, but never seen in person.

No good

Barbara_W, Jun 2026
Musee Dorsey did not accept the tour tickets I had to pay twice. They made us wait 45 minutes before we could get in and said that the information I had was no good. Please reimburse me.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Hi, Thank you for your message, and please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience you experienced at the Musée d'Orsay. After checking our records, we can confirm that your ticket was indeed sent. It appears there may have been a confusion between the actual entry ticket and the Viator voucher, which is not a valid ticket for museum access. To look into a possible reimbursement, please contact us directly at contact@parisodyssey.com with your booking reference and proof of the second payment. For the future, we warmly encourage you to reach out to us on WhatsApp at +33 7 69 46 62 97 for immediate assistance — we're always happy to help in real time. Best regards, Paris Odyssey

Don't miss this gem

Pippa_I, Jun 2026
The Musee D'Orsay is a 'don't miss' gallery. A brilliantly adapted building houses a wide range of sculpture, special exhibitions and its outstanding collections of Impressionist art. It's a place you can visit and revisit

Well done

Sally_B, Jun 2026
Musee d’Orsay is a gem! Don’t miss it. Go to the fifth floor first, as early as you can. The impressionist painters there are so well represented.

Easy to navigate museum visit?

Todd_M, Jun 2026
Museum was very easy to get around and see what you wanted to see in a short period of time. We particularly enjoyed looking at the impressionist artists on the 5thfloor. Recommended for any trip to Paris.

Great! 👍

Sarah_D, Jun 2026
Easy process, great communication!! We enjoyed the visit very much and using the tickets was easy as can be. We liked that we didn’t have to wait in any lines!

Museum d’Orsay is worthy but don’t need Viator tickets

Victoria_B, Jun 2026
I’m not certain why we pay twice the admission fee for nothing but admission. Additionally, it was confusing how to actually get the ticket to get in but people the ticket office were very nice. I’m a big Viator fan, but I’m not certain how helpful it was to go through ride or other than double the price. Loved the museum!
