Once you have read exhibits info on the Louvre website and read reviews on Tripadvisor and watched YouTube, if there are only going to be a couple of exhibits of interest to you, you may decide that it would be be better to choose a different museum which may have more exhibits which you would like and which would make better use of your short time in Paris.😉 The Louvre with or without advance tickets and depending on where your ideal exhibits are located could easy take an entire morning or afternoon of your time. Sadly "overtourism" is becoming more and more of an issue in Europe but even more sadly, many of those contributing to crowding are not really interested in an in-depth visit, really only wanting a quick selfie with whatever the exhibit or site is before quickly exiting to move on to their next selfie location. 34 minutes ago, OneSixtyToOne said: You might want to buy the Paris Museum Pass https://www.parismuseumpass.fr/en There is a skip the line entrance at the Louvre and Orsay that you can use with it. One other must see in Paris is Sainte-Chapelle. Built by Louis XIV to house relics of the crucifixion, it has the most extensive gothic stained glass in the world. It’s amazing. Thank you both! Paris obviously has a lot to see and do but we haven’t decided for sure yet if we are going there after our cruise. We still have a few days before we can buy return plane tickets so we will decide by then. Even if we do go, we wouldn’t be in Paris long enough to visit more than one museum. We would only be there 3 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
