This tool is a handy way to visit the attractions Paris offers!
It takes a little time to get familiar with it but then its great. You can easier and quicker entrance to the attractions
Consider this: If you are a person who is planning a visit 6 months before, and are willing to schedule your holiday day by day in advance, this card might suit you well.
BUT: If you are on a tighter schedule you won't get all the benefits promised. For visiting Galeries Lafayette, the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower, you need to contact the Tourist office via a form, and the personal will book your visit. We were in Paris for five days in the end of April, and during that time didn't even get an answer to our request. It is in fact still pending, after a week. They promise to answer the request in 24 max 72 hours, but this was not true in our case. I visited the Tourist Office and they said that everything was fully booked. I can't understand why they didn't even bother to send an answer to our request. Really frustrating and an old fashioned way to make reservations. Also, the PassLib Eiffel Tower ticket won't qualify you to the top, only to the second floor.
Still, some of the attractions (eg. the Bus Tour) were easily arranged by simply activating the Attraction in the app and showing the QR code to the bus driver. This is how I thought it would work.
Some, like Musée de'l Orangerie, needed a time slot booking to the museum and activation of the QR code. For Musée d'Orsay, you needed to book your visit separately via a link from the app.
With this card we ended up not saving so much money as we thought. Using the app was generally quite complicated and frustrating, because the reservation procedures for each attraction were slightly different. Paris Tourist Office has a lot to do if they want this App to work during the Olympics 2024. My Dad would not be able to make the reservations.
Positively thinking: we visited some attractions that we wouldn't have done without this card (and without the reservation disappointments).
And: we enjoyed Paris a lot!
very responsive and efficient. i’m looking forward to visiting your beautiful country!
merci
l'application n'est pas toujours fluide et comme les organismes ne connaissent pas necessairement l'appli, c'est pas simple.
l'avantage c'est que des visites sont des bonnes découvertes
Très pratique pour visiter Paris.
Bon rapport qualité prix.
Venant de Belgique, nous avions trois jours sur place pour visiter Paris, l'achat de ce Pass semblait une évidence...
Le Pass est bien pensé et attrayant financièrement mais je n'ai pas su profiter de deux activités pourtant répertoriée dans votre liste: les vedettes de Paris et le musée Grévin.
Pour le premier, ils m'ont envoyé chez leurs voisins où le code Qr à marché.
Pour le deuxième pas moyen non plus de lire le code Qr généré par l'application finalement ils m'ont laissé entrer mais seulement après avoir téléphoné à leur responsable, nous avons perdu une bonne demie-heure à l'entrée ce qui compte dans une journée remplie dans la capitale.
Passez une belle journée
I reckoned that it was too confusing to have to research few different passes available in the market.
The app seems confusing perhaps it should add on the ticket price or have some AI to help choose and plan dates directly rather than have to email and receive negative replies the next day which might be too late for some tourists.
The great thing about the app is it does help save time queueing
