I loved both museums, which you can visit on 2 different days with the combo ticket - just pick the dates and times. Please take my advice and visit them on separate days as the Orsay Museum is a former train station that has been repurposed into a multifloor museum. It is enormous and worth taking your time through. You can download the audio guide on your phone, using the Global Audio App, before the visit. The Museum also has a very nice cafe restaurant for a snack or lunch, which you can enjoy with aome alcohol if desired. I had a late lunch there, between visiting floors, and it was very enjoyable. The museum also hosted a special Renoir exhibition during my visit. L''Orangerie is a must for any serious Monet wtarelillies art lover. It was very special and I'm so pleased to have paced myself to visit both while in Paris.

I arrived a little before the scheduled time and had no trouble getting in. I saw the permanent exhibition and the temporary ones. I thought the Renoir exhibition was beautiful and very comprehensive. The museum is very interesting. It has paintings from various periods and styles.

Getting in was a breeze, but I couldn't download the online guide. The museum was amazing. It was definitely worth it. It was so moving to see those magnificent works up close.

We had a wonderful time at the Musee d'orsay. The Renoir exhibit was exceptional. Overall, the museum has great art and is not nearly as crowded as other attractions in Paris. We had a lot of selection in the times available when booking on line just one day in advance. I highly recommend it for anyone who loves art from the 1850-1915 period.

I absolutely LOVED the Orsay! So many dearly loved masterpieces in one place. The museum is well organized in a manner that a person can follow the flow of not only art genres history, but all of world history because art is such a part of life. The traffic flow patterns are set up in such a way that makes it easy to cover all.

The museum was very impressive, and since there was no wait to get in, it was easy to visit. But even more impressive was the boat ride on the Seine. There was hardly any wait here either, and the boat offered a great view of all the sights. I would definitely take that boat ride again anytime.

My ticket didn't let me get in any faster. I had to wait in line to get into the museum. The audio guide was hard to set up and didn't work properly. There's no point in buying it.
