Louvre Museum Reserved Access and Big Bus Paris Hop-on Hop-o

Apart from the fact that we booked the 9.30 entrance but on the day we visited there was a meeting happening and the museum would open only after 11am instead of 9am, the whole procedure was smooth and no more than 10 minutes overall (including security checks) to actually get in.

Fue genial. Tienen que entrar por El Carrusel que es como un vector comercial que está abajo de la pirámide. Por ahí casi no hay gente, la entrada fue súper rápida. Vayan temprano para aprovechar el día.

We received the tickets on time and our entry into the museum happened in the blink of an eye. We did not encounter any problems; on the contrary, everything went very smoothly.

My feelings are mixed. I did enjoy the bus tour itself and it met my expectations - I saw everything that I wanted to see. However, the process of my getting there was highly flawed and does need your attention. It literally took me hours to find the Big Bus stop so that I could begin my tour. Yes...you gave me the general area, but not the precise address of the stop (by 'stop' I mean the Hop On location). I can appreciate that this is not necessarily an issue in a smaller market, such as Edinburgh, but in a large and somewhat hectic city like Paris or London it's a must. For your information! This must be improved!

Highlights of the trip included the Eiffel Tower, the new bridge "covered" (an art piece) near the Louvre, Notre Dame Cathedral and the participants of the Paris Marathon running in large numbers along the banks of the Seine River. Due to the marathon, we did not visit the Arc de Triomphe, for example. The announced route had been changed on that day.

It was so fast. I booked the tickets and got a queue for the time I preferred. I didn't do anything special and booking took a few minutes. I'm happy about that.
