Excellent museum to visit, we had a wonderful guide from city walk booked by Viator. She hit the major artists and historical moments through those artists. Too me a better place to do when looking for museums.

Very excellent tour with Violet. You probably would want to schedule some times after the tour to see the paintings more closely at your pace. The tour is excellent to understand the concept of the museum and paintings. The tour guide is a bit p.

Avi was an incredible guide, full of wit and humour, and a great deal of insight and wisdom into art history and modern interpretations of artists. Would highly recommend a guided tour of Orsay, especially for first-time visitors! :)
