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!
