If you do not plan to use a Museum Pass in Paris, order your tickets to the d'Orsay on-line before you go. (They are NOT date/time specific, so you won't be limiting your options.) If you do not, you will spend a LONG time in the ticket-buyers' line. We enjoyed the Impressionists exhibit at the d'Orsay very much. Although it... More

It's easy to go into overload as there's so many amazing pieces of art. Plan to spend a long time here and have lunch in one of their cafes. the cafe on the 5th floor serves a delicious quiche lorraine.

So many great pieces of impressionist and post-impressionist art that I have read about, or seen in movies, are here in all their glory. If you like the works of Manet, Monet, Renoir, Degas, Toulouse-Lautrec, Sisley, Caillebot, Cassat, Morisot, Gaughin, Signac, Seurat and more, they are all here. I took a morning and wandered to my heart's content. The building... More

Musee d'Orsay may be my favorite museum anywhere - and certainly my favorite in Paris. The building itself is beautiful, and the artwork is well laid out making it a far more accessible visit than the Louvre. The Louvre is amazing, but so big that it is hard to get a sense of the museum in one visit. You can... More

I love visiting the Musee d'Orsay but I wish it wasn't so crowded. We spent about 45 minutes waiting in line outside. Once inside, pick up the excellent audio guide and wander around. It's tough to get in the rooms with the Impressionist paintings, but there are plenty of other gems to see. Plan to spend a half a day... More

Everything was fabulous. Dont miss. Arrived half hour before opening.Was first in line. Beautiful building,amazing artworks .

One of my absolute favorite museums in the world. Extraordinary permanet collection, spectacular space, lovely restaurants (especially the one on the second floor, in what looks like was once a Rococo ballroom.) Caution: lines are insanely long. Because this is one of the only museums in Paris that's open on Tuesdays, it's especially packed that day -- avoid it that... More

This is without doubt the best gallery I've been too. A huge collection of classic paintings laid out in stunning building.mcome early to avoid the queues. The 5th floor houses the more famous works but the whole musee is stunning. Worth a few hours and musee Legion of Honour next door is also worth a visit and often missed as... More

Very nice, contrasting space with the Louvre palace. I'd recommend seeing the Impressionists (upstairs) and Art de noveau collections. Definitely worth a visit. About 2-3 hours. Also nice views from the round windows under the roof. Also check the wall clock and terrace on the back wall to take a nice picture of the interior. Shooting officially not allowed.
