Museums & Art in Paris — FAQ

Which museums in Paris are worth visiting?
The headline museums are the Louvre, the Musée d’Orsay (Impressionists), the Centre Pompidou (modern art), the Musée de l’Orangerie (Monet’s Water Lilies) and the Rodin Museum. Most offer skip-the-line tickets and guided tours.
Is the Paris Museum Pass worth it?
If you plan to visit several museums and monuments over 2–4 days, the Paris Museum Pass can save money and time with included entry. For one or two sites, individual skip-the-line tickets are usually better value.
