Paris: Musée d'Orsay Impressionist Masterpieces Guided Tour (Skip-the-Line, English)

Discover the masterpieces of the Musée d'Orsay
with an expert guide

Explore the Musée d'Orsay, set inside a grand Beaux-Arts railway station built for the World's Fair, with an officially licensed local guide. You skip the ticket line with dedicated entry, and headsets are provided so you can easily hear your guide throughout the visit.

Hear how the Impressionists changed art

When Impressionist works were first exhibited, their vivid colors, visible brushstrokes and everyday subjects caused great controversy. In front of the works, your guide explains how painters such as Monet, Manet, Renoir, Degas and Van Gogh broke the rules, challenged tradition and changed the direction of art.

Admire major masterpieces and hidden gems

During the tour, you will see the museum's main highlights as well as lesser-known works. After the tour, you can stay in the galleries as long as you like or visit the temporary exhibitions.

Choose a group, small-group or lunch tour

Choose from a skip-the-line group tour, a small-group (semi-private) tour of up to 6 people, or a group tour with a gourmet lunch. All tours are conducted in English.
