Paying for a ticket should not require us to stand in a long general admission line with people who have not purchased tickets.

This is a scam! We never received our tickets. The confirmation code from viator is not the entry ticket , the local operator is not responding and never received the actual QR code with the ticket. Do not book this experience!
Dear Sone D, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear about the confusion and inconvenience you experienced. After reviewing your booking, we can confirm that the entry tickets, including the required QR code and access instructions, were sent to the email address provided prior to your visit.

This went very smoothly for us. Read instructions as you receive them. Viator Vouchers do not get you entry but they send you tickets and we were able to go in a very short line with the voucher they gave us with a time slot. Overall wonderful experience

We had a wonderful experience visiting the Orangerie Museum in Paris. We booked our tickets through Viator at the very last minute and were impressed by how quickly we received them—within just 5–10 minutes. The Viator team was extremely helpful and assisted us with the necessary time reservation, which ensured priority access and a smooth, hassle-free entry into the museum. The museum itself was absolutely beautiful, and the entire experience was well organized from start to finish. Highly recommend both the Orangerie Museum and Viator’s booking service for anyone planning a trip to Paris.

What an amazing experience! The L’Orangerie is a must do in Paris. But book in advance and secure a timeslot to miss a 3 hour wait.
Dear Rian S, Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We are delighted to hear that you had an amazing experience at L’Orangerie and enjoyed your visit. We also appreciate your helpful tip about booking in advance to secure a timeslot and avoid waiting. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you again in the future.
Very bad! It’s not entering the museum any time. Need to join the longest queue with those without tickets under burning hot sun! Tickets sold with misleading statement. This is the lousiest arrangement I ever had. Why buy tickets in advance? Why not just buy tickets on the spot and keep my flexibility.
Dear Allie L, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.

While the paintings are spectacular, the overall experience was spoiled by the bad organization. The venue is managing very poorly the long waiting lines (lack of clarity and the staff are not helpful). The associated services provided by Viator were not clear. I received many emails and messages via the App. Information was spread across and as a result very confusing. It was extremely frustrating to spend that amount of money and to experience so much difficulty to get in the museum and access the audio guide. Very disappointing!
Dear Sylvie E, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations despite enjoying the beautiful paintings. Upon reviewing your booking, we identified that a reservation voucher with a designated time slot was shared along with the tickets, which would have allowed priority access to the attraction. We are also sorry to hear that the information regarding ticket access and the audio guide felt unclear. Our support team is always available and would have gladly assisted you had we been contacted during your visit.
Tickets with no time slot for this museum are a failure. After waiting in line for an extended period we were told that the museum was sold out and since we purchased third party tickets we were not getting it. Of course my tickets are unrefundable so money spend got nothing.
Dear greenebuffalo, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations. Upon reviewing your booking, we identified that a reservation voucher with a designated time slot was shared along with the tickets, which would have allowed priority access to the attraction. Additionally, the tickets issued were flexible and remained valid for up to 7 days from your selected travel date, as mentioned on the tickets. Our support team is always available and would have gladly assisted you had we been contacted during your visit.
BEWARE…The line for entry was so long that we were unable to enter. Viator refused to refund or reschedule our tickets for another day. DO NOT USE VIATOR for your travels. HORRIBLE customer service
Dear Raj T, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations. Upon reviewing your booking, we identified that a reservation voucher with a designated time slot was shared along with the tickets, which would have allowed priority access to the attraction. Additionally, the tickets issued were flexible and remained valid for up to 7 days from your selected travel date, as mentioned on the tickets. As the tickets were duly shared and remained valid during the usage period, So that our team had reponded that unfortunately we were unable to accpet refunds in accordance with the attraction’s policy.
