Buying museum tickets
 
Hi everyone

A couple of days ago I read a post about buying the Museum Pass for Paris. I have no intention of buying one however a few people mentioned buying tickets a day or so prior to visiting the museums of your choice.

Is there one place where you can get the tickets or would you just have to go to each individual museum?

Many thanks.

FNAC sells them. Here's a list of sites from another website:

Thank you so much apersuader65, that is exactly what I wanted to know.

One of the beauties of the Paris museum pass is that it gives you 7 days of unlimited access to lot of locations. This means that if you need to use the restroom, bingo. If the weather is lousy, gives you a break. Want to just sit and relax for a few, it's there.

My DD and DS who are now in Paris love it. She also used it on her last February trip and said it was a lifesaver, since it never stopped raining for 10 days and was very cold out.

Thank you dave, but unfortunately we will only be in Paris for 4 days. We aren't going to try and do "everything" just take our time and enjoy what we can though we do have 2 or 3 museums that we hope to visit.
