Paris Tickets

Paris is one of the most fascinating and visited cities in the world and not only has some of the most famous attractions, but also a magical aura and a millenary tradition that have made it a favorite place for artists.

You will undoubtedly be amazed, both by its beauty and the wide range of activities it offers. From the Eiffel Tower to the Opera Garnier, from the Arc de Triomphe to the Moulin Rouge and from the Pompidou Center to the Catacombs, are just some of the plans that you can not miss on a trip in which you will have no room for distraction. I leave you with this guide with the best tickets in Paris to make the most of your trip.

You can not pass through Paris without seeing the Eiffel Tower, which is the most emblematic monument of the city and one of the most famous in the world. During your visit you will be able to access the second floor of the tower, which you will reach by walking up its 674 steps. From there you will have some of the best views of the city, especially towards the buildings of the Ile de France, including the Notre Dame Cathedral.

When you book your ticket to visit the Eiffel Tower, you can choose to be accompanied at extra cost by a tour guide who will tell you the history of this icon, which has been intimately linked to the city since its construction in 1889. Once you reach the second floor you will have free time to enjoy the panoramic views and take some of the best photographs, before returning to base on a tour that will take between 15 and 20 minutes.

The Louvre is one of the largest, most famous and visited museums in the world, so you can not miss it during your tour of Paris. You must keep in mind that, because of its size, it can be overwhelming and that every minute counts, so it is ideal that you book tickets without queues to the Louvre Museum. Among his best works include *The Mona Lisa *, the *Venus of Milo * and *The Victory of Samothrace *.

This museum also stands out for the different rooms surrounding the main attractions, where you can discover other 35,000 objects from around the world including sculptures, paintings, prints and bronze works. The best alternative to enjoy it completely is that you choose to make your visit early in the morning, which is when it receives fewer visitors and when the most famous halls of the museum are clearer.

Until the construction of the Eiffel Tower in 1889, it was the most famous attraction in Paris. Currently, it is the second most visited so I recommend you to book your tickets for the Arc de Triomphe in advance. From its terrace you will be able to discover the Parisian skyline and discover some of the best panoramic views, especially during the summer or during clear days.

The Arc de Triomphe has a height of 50 meters, which although it is not too high, being surrounded by green spaces is an ideal setting for you to take some of the best pictures of Paris. In addition, it also houses an art exhibition at the top, which traces the history of the memorial building from its construction in 1836 to the present and which you can tour with your tickets. To reach the rooftop you'll have to walk up 284 steps.

The Moulin Rouge, located on the Boulevard de Clichy, one of the most bohemian areas of Paris, is the most famous cabaret in France and for over 100 years stands out for its shows, food and drinks. The best alternative to discover it is to book your ticket for the Moulin Rouge with dinner It will transport you to the late nineteenth century among feathers, sequins and the glitter of the dancers.

In Moulin Rouge you will get to know one of the icons of the city that had as protagonists Edith Piaf, Franck Sinatra and Elton John, among other great artists who stepped on its stages. There you can also live one of the best experiences to know the night of Paris, which is famous for its themed shows and shows of its dance clubs. Do you dare to travel back in time during an evening of vaudeville?

The Panthéon de Paris, located in the heart of the Latin Quarter, is one of the buildings that preserves the memory of France. In this neoclassical church you can visit the subway crypt that contains the tombs of Voltaire, Victor Hugo, Marie Curie, Louis Braille and Emile Zola, among other great French personalities. You can also marvel at the architecture of the building and the open views from the top floor.

The Pantheon in Paris will be familiar to you, as it is inspired by the Pantheon in Rome, although it has a larger dome, the interior is better preserved and you can also access the top of the building, something that is prohibited in the building of the Italian capital to promote the conservation of the structure. This is one of the most visited sites in the city, so I recommend that you book tickets to visit the Pantheon in Paris in advance and without queues.

The Palace of Versailles is one of the most famous palaces in the world and much of its fame is due to the beauty of its architecture and the size of its imposing gardens, which has made it a Unesco World Heritage Site, so it is worth going a little north of Paris to see it. Once inside, you can also visit the exhibition of its art collection and its main galleries.

The most famous of its galleries is the Hall of Mirrors, which is more than 70 meters long and in addition to its baroque structure is known for having been the site where the Treaty of Versailles was signed, which ended the First World War. Note that if you book tickets to visit the Palace of Versailles you can stroll through its gardens, but during several dates between April and October are closed.

The Pompidou Center is the kilometer 0 of the art and culture circuit of Paris and also one of the most modern and famous buildings of the twentieth century. Its facade and exterior decoration, built entirely in a tubular format, refers to the architectural avant-garde, so it houses one of the largest collections of modern and contemporary art in the world, which include works by Picasso, Man Ray, Francis Bacon and Kandinsky.

In the Pompidou Center, as in other parts of the city, you can also have access to the terrace to discover from there the Parisian skyline with its most emblematic buildings. If you plan to visit the French capital with children at the top of the Pompidou you will also find the Children's Gallery, which offers children's activities. Book your tickets for the Pompidou Center early as they sell out fast.

Notre Dame Cathedral is the most famous religious building in Paris, but for many the most beautiful ecclesiastical construction is opposite and that is Sainte Chapelle, the gothic temple with chrome stained glass windows and endless ceilings that will take you back to medieval France. Because of its imposing architecture, it became not only a huge reliquary but also the home of royalty, which in the Middle Ages ruled the country with an iron fist.

If you book tickets for the Sainte Chapelle you can visit the lower chapel and the upper chapel, but you will marvel at the stained glass windows and the colorful rose window that crowns the entrance door and represents several passages from the Bible, including Genesis, Exodus, the Passion and the Apocalypse. The Sainte Chapelle building also houses the Conciergerie, a historic building that occupies the quay of the Clock and that during the French Revolution housed the bloodiest prison in Paris.

The Invalides complex is a memorial building built in the sixteenth century where you can find the Army Museum of Paris. This exhibition is known worldwide because the tomb of Napoleon Bonaparte is located there, making it one of the most visited sites in France and Europe by tourists.

Among the samples of the complex you will find a large number of cataloged objects, including tools and armor, and one of the largest samples of firearms in France. In addition, if you book tickets to visit the Invalides complex, you will have an immersive experience through the bloodiest battles in the history of France, where you can learn about the daily life of a soldier in the war in each of the conflicts.

The Montparnasse Tower is one of the tallest towers in France and since its construction in 1972, generated controversy among the French, who complained because they argued that the modernist building collided with the stately Parisian skyline. However, since its inauguration the tower became one of the most visited attractions, because from its 210 meters high you can access the best views of the capital.

Book tickets to visit the Montparnasse Tower online to avoid unnecessary waiting. From the panoramic terrace on the 56th floor and from the observatory on the 59th floor you can perfectly distinguish the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe and the 2 kilometers long Avenue des Champs Elysees. At the top you can also have a coffee while enjoying the view and even the sunset.

This building is one of the most representative of Parisian architecture, because it not only reflects in its facade the opulence of French engineering and the style of its designs, but also because it is the cathedral of lyric art, music and dance that characterize Paris, especially since the nineteenth century. If, in addition to booking your visit to the Opéra Garnier, you decide to attend a show you can also see the gilded details and mosaics inside.

Inside the main theater you can discover the red velvet seats in the auditorium, the ceiling crowned by the frescoes of Marc Chagall and if you opt for a guided tour, prior to the show, you can learn the most fascinating stories. Among them stands out, of course, that of the Phantom of the Opera, the mysterious specter that frightens the audience at each performance to conquer a young vocalist.

If you are a French history buff you have to book tickets to visit the Basilica of Saint-Denis, which is not only considered the first Gothic art cathedral in the world but also houses, inside, the tomb of more than 70 French kings and public servants, so it is noted as the main crypt of the royalty of France. I recommend that you visit this site with a skip-the-line entrance.

The most popular of the crypts that you will find in Saint-Denis is that of Marie Antoinette of Austria, but you can also visit the largest collection of funerary sculptures in the country, a large number of statues and monumental tombs of the Renaissance. All this you can find in the beautiful building of the basilica that is located in the heart of the troubled district of Saint-Denis, who starred in the May French riots of 1968.

The Louvre is the most famous museum in Paris and the Pompidou the largest, but you can't miss booking tickets to visit the Musée d'Orsay. And it stands out for its exhibitions, which are the most important of impressionism and post-impressionism in Europe. This museum is located in an old train station, so in addition to its samples you will be surprised with the architecture of the building, and in addition to the paintings you can also see the sculpture room.

Among the works of art that you can see at the Orsay are the Lunch on the Grass, by Edouard Manet, the Dance at the Moulin de la Galette by Auguste Renoir and the Portrait of the Artist, by Vincent van Gogh, as well as paintings by Edgar Degas, Jean-Francois Millet, Paul Cézanne and Paul Gauguin, which make this museum one of the must-see of the French capital.
