Purchased the unguided tour so we could go at our on pace. Easy entry with the fast pass tickets. Selected the 3:30 pm tickets to avoid the morning crowds, with the knowledge that the museum closes at 6 pm. However, we weren't able to enjoy key aspects such as the cafe as we learned at the host stand that it closed at 4:45, nor the rooftop terrace as it closed at 5 pm, along with the souvenir shops. They start exiting guests at 5 pm so we were disappointed and felt our visit was cut short. Would have been nice to know these aspects BEFOREHAND. Recommend a morning time slot even though will likely be more crowded, just so you can enjoy the while museum if you'd like.

Paris is without a doubt a wonderful city. From Montmarte, with its artistic alleys, to the Louvre Museum, to the Eiffel Tower lit up at night, every corner smells of art. Even the Orsay Museum located in the train station with paintings by Van Gogh, Renoir, the glass roof and its precious clock, an iconic symbol of French art, are part of this spectacular city . Skipping the queue and entering at the chosen time embellished the visit.

Buying the tickets with fast track was easy but d'Orsay museum is an insult to art. I think the limited number of visitors should be allowed to make it slightly pleasant. People racing through the museum in order to take pictures of the most famous paintings and the rooms were way to crowded. It was really unpleasant.

A memorable experience, a place full of culture and art organized as best as possible for every subject, even for those who do not know art. Strong emotions, heart and eyes full of beauty.

A great experience in really impressive buildings. We really liked the exhibitions, as well as the organization, so that not too many visitors came in at the same time.

Virtually no waiting at the tills, no crowds in the halls, very fine "art est dans la rue" exhibition. Back to the permanent exhibits: Seurat, Manet, Monet, etc.

The museum houses some of the best works of Impressionism, there are no long lines (visited on a Saturday lunchtime), I also attended a show with dancers I was unable to download the audio guide I had purchased, probably because of the slow network, I recommend doing that first!
