About this tour

Step inside a former railway station transformed into one of Paris’s great art museums, where luminous canvases bring Impressionism to life. On this private Paris Musée d'Orsay tour, a licensed art guide introduces works by Van Gogh, Monet, Rodin, and other celebrated artists, with commentary in your selected language.

Choose a 2-hour museum visit, or extend your outing with a 3.5-hour option that adds private transfers. The 4-hour experience pairs the museum with Île de la Cité and Old Town sights, including Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois, the Louvre, and Notre-Dame. For a longer day, the 5.5-hour option combines the museum and Old Town tour with private car transfers. The exact attractions depend on your selected option, and groups are capped at six guests per guide.

Your Paris Musée d'Orsay tour includes museum admission to the main exhibition. Ticket validation and security checks may still involve a wait, and temporary exhibitions are not included. Choose the itinerary that suits your day and discover the art and historic streets of Paris with a private guide.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 1 review. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Paris
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.1. Top 49% in Paris means it ranks in the top 49% of tours in Paris by this score.
