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!

Everything was ok for museè d'orsay but I was very disappointed as far as tickets for Louvre - I bought 1 entrance ticket for about euro 35 and it was a fake ticket ! They didn't let me in ! I had to pay further eur 22 ( normal price) for a new ticket. I had message with ai of Headhout in order to ask refund and the only offer I received was a discount of 10 euro for next purchase ... NOT GOOD AT ALL VERY DISAPPOINTED!

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.

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!

The time slot entry system was the best! I didn't have to wait in long lines and the Museum is very punctual with the assigned time slots. Just by showing my ticket on the phone, I was able to enter the galleries without any problems. I took the recommendation to start with the impressionist room on the 5th floor and then went to the 2nd floor. I had a tour of about 4 hours that allowed me to see works I had always wanted to see up close.

A quick entry procedure; the lockers are a great facility. However, it was so crowded that some of the artworks were difficult to see properly. Perhaps there should be a limit on the number of visitors allowed in at the same time.

The Musée d'Orsay is a must-see in Paris and always an absolute highlight. The tickets booked in advance with a time slot worked well. Thank you for this service!

d'Orsay is our all-time favorite museum. The paintings are fascinating, we adored the art-nouveau exhibition immensely. All in all the museum is a decent rival to the Louvre

The museum is so full even first thing in the morning it is not enjoyable and I doubt its the busy season. Squash people in seems to be the motto.
