Reservations for visiting some Paris monuments and museums
We’ll be arriving a day ahead of our Bon Voyage tour and intend to do a little sight-seeing on our own with a 2 day Paris Museum Pass ( which now last for a full 48 hours instead of just 2 calendar days.). We’ve used these passes for adults before and they are very practical - grandchildren get in most places free. I just realized that some of the places we want to visit ( Sainte-Chapelle and l’Orangerie )now say they require timed reservations. The timed slots for the days we will be there and free are already quite full, but I managed to get timed reservations online through Centre des Monuments Nationaux for Sainte-Chapelle and Musée de l’Orangerie websites. There were selections to click that indicated “already have tickets” and “under 18”, so there was no charge for the 3 timed reservations at each place. This reservation requirement might not be in effect by the time we arrive, but I couldn’t be sure. I just trust we will not be hoping for a nap at the times I made the reservations!
