Paris museums worth a timed ticket
The Louvre, the Orsay and the Orangerie, and how to avoid the queue at each.
By RollOnTravel Editorial
The Louvre
Timed entry is required. Early slots and the Wednesday and Friday late openings are the quietest.
Musée d’Orsay
Smaller and easy to see in half a day. The Thursday late opening is worth it.
Where to stay
The 6th and 7th arrondissements keep you within walking distance of both.
