Paris Museum Pass
 
I am going to Paris next month for 2 weeks. A friend of mine will be staying with me for 3 days. The day after she leaves another friend is coming and will stay the remaining time. We are thinking of getting a 6 day museum pass for the first friend who will use it for 3 days and then my other friend will use it for the remaining 3 consecutive days. My question is will they check the name on the pass as it will be different from my 2nd friend's name? I don't remember ever having a name check before, they have only looked at the date on the pass to make sure it's valid. Anyone have any info or experience with this?

we had the 6 day museum pass last september and no one ever checked the name on the pass with any ID. folks barely checked the date!! i regret filling out the date in pen as we're going back this year again! :)

Definitely have never had anyone check the name, you should be fine.

Don't know about fine, but you likely won't get caught.

We did not have people really check the dates or our names on the pass at all...

Why not have each friend buy a 2 day pass for 32E? Each friend will have one day less of use but they will not have to “sneak” in.
