It was especially crowded today at the Orsay museum and the long non-ticketed line was estimated to take 45 minutes to get through, so I was very happy to have my special pass thanks to Head out. My wait time was perhaps five minutes and after I showed the bar code on my phone I was in the museum. I went to see the special exhibit - John Singer Sargent - that was also crowed as it closes soon. But no trouble getting in with the museum-wide pass... Not to mention it was cold in Paris, having just snowed, so I did not have to wait outside in the cold :) All in all a great experience!

Headout made our visit to Musée d’Orsay truly memorable. The process was effortless – booked online in minutes, received the ticket right away, and walked straight in at 11:00 without any waiting. The collection is stunning – standing under that iconic clock with sunlight streaming in was a moment I’ll never forget. Seeing the real paintings of Monet, Van Gogh and Degas felt almost unreal. A perfect, joyful experience for me and my teenager. Thank you so much!

I found the sculptures in the grand hall magnificent. We enjoyed the fluidity of the museum, which enchanted us with all its works. Bravo! Unfortunately, we were disappointed to find that there was a limited selection of Monet's works, as they had been sent to Japan for the centenary of Monet's death. What a shame! Very convenient cloakroom, as well as the restaurant and restrooms.

The museum was sooooo overcrowded and the weird thing was we could even enter an hour before our ticket , there was just a larger line at the other side but everyone could get in and I really did not see the advantage of buying a more expensive ticket because it didn't matter .
