Museums Galore With The Paris Museum Pass

Often times when you visit a city filled with museums, it's quite an expense to see all your favorites. Just seeing six to seven museums can be quite expensive. Imagine when you have a city like Paris that has perhaps the greatest number of museums out of any city around. It becomes a real dilemma as to which sites to visit, especially if you're on a tight budget. Add to that the amount of time you need to spend waiting on long lines to enter the different museums. Even seeing one or two sites becomes an all-day affair. Fortunately, Paris offers a solution to these frustrating problems - the Paris Museum Pass.

The Paris Museum Pass offers entrance to over 60 amazing Paris museums throughout the city. With this pass, you'll receive huge discounts on entrance fees for participating sites. You choose whether you want a two, four, or six-day pass, with prices set accordingly. You can even buy these passes in advance at a number of different places throughout Paris, and even online. Here's a typical savings. Let's say you buy the two-day pass for 30 euro. You see four different sites (i.e. the Louvre, Notre-Dame, the Arc de Triomphe, and the Rodin Museum) during those two days for 30 euro. If you were to visit these sites without paying for a museum pass, it might cost you seven to 10 more euros. Not only will you save money buying the Paris Museum Pass, but you'll also save time, which is especially important in a time-packed holiday. Without the museum pass, you might have to wait up to over an hour at some of the top museums. With a Paris Museum Pass, you simply enter the "pre-paid" line and bypass the long ticket purchase line. What would normally take an hour's worth of time now only takes less than five minutes.

Since most Paris museums charge no admission for children under 18, you'll only have to purchase the pass for adults. The only one sticking point you should be aware of is that the Paris Museum Pass is not valid for temporary exhibitions. Other than that, it's a true time and money safer when both time and money are a concern.
