    It is something incredible, full of details that can only be appreciated being in front of true works of art, the closest you can be to wonderful samples that can make an inspired person and can capture from his eyes what he wants to show to those who have the opportunity to see them ... totally recommended.

    Everything went very well with tickets. I find it very good to have tickets in Headout app, so I do not need to look them all over emails. Palais Garnier is must place to visit.

    The exhibition is superb 👍👍👍 We were dazzled by all these masterpieces...🤩🤩🤩 The only small negative point was the beginning of the visit. The first room doesn't flow smoothly... 😔😕 We didn't really look at the costumes in this room because there wasn't enough room... The rest went wonderfully well.

    If you're in Paris, you have to visit the Opera. Beautiful, grandiose.
  • Boasting an eclectic and ostentatious Baroque design, the Opera Garnier is one of the most extravagant representations of Second Empire architecture in France. Thanks to your timed entry tickets, benefit from quick and easy access to this magnificent building in the center of Paris.

    Inaugurated in 1875 and named after its exciting young architect, Charles Garnier, it is the largest opera house in Europe. You will set eyes on the writhing snakes of the bronze “Pythonisse” sculpture, before climbing the double stairway of the “Grand Escalier” (Main Staircase). Imagine the swish of crinolines as you admire the breathtaking décor and stroll through vast foyers, filled with sparkling mosaics, colorful marble columns, and gold-leaf flourishes. Everywhere you look will be a feast for the eyes.
