If you are a fan of the impressionist style of painting, then the Musee d'Orsay is a must see museum for you. The entire fifth floor is made up of impressionist paintings including the most famous artists of Monet, Degas, Renoir, etc. The paintings are much more impressive in person than they are in books. The museum also contains impressive... More

See the impressionists, it's a likeable museum but buy your tickets in advance or you'll be queuing for an hour like we did.

Apart from the main attraction of Mona Lisa the other things are equally stunning Dont forget to buy a Souvenier , this place will... More

Make sure you have a museum pass before you hit the major museums... Loved this museum, smaller and more enjoyable than the Louvre

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
