Activity Details
Hailed as the center of the art world, Paris is universally famed for its magnificent museums and beautiful galleries, most of which should feature on anyone’s cultural bucket list. With the Paris Museum Pass, you can enjoy access to the best of the city’s museums and monuments without queuing up or paying for tickets. Discover some of the world’s most celebrated artworks in the largest and most iconic museum in the world, the Louvre, walk through the bright corridors of modern art at the Pompidou Center and be mesmerized by the kaleidoscopic lights of the medieval Sainte-Chapelle church. Venture outside of the city to explore the lavish palace and grounds of Versailles - the former home of Marie Antoinette, the breathtaking 16th Century Château de Fontainebleau, or even traverse our solar system at the Air and Space Museum. With access to over 50 attractions and 2-day, 4-day pass or 6-day pass options, this is the ultimate ticket to exploring Paris!
Highly practical, the Paris Museum Pass cuts out the queues and is a money saver. It gives free access to more than fifty museums and monuments in Paris and the Paris region. Lucky card-holders receive free to the Arc de Triomphe, Sainte-Chapelle, Panthéon, Louvre, Musée Rodin and many more.
Three durations of the pass are available as follows:
