Unsafe entrance procedure, otherwise wonderful visit
November 8th 2024

We loved visiting the Opera Garnier. It was an amazing building and the audio guide made it much more meaningful.

However, we arrived a little before 10am on Monday and stood outside with some other people waiting to enter. At 10am, someone came and opened the gate but there was zero organization regarding getting inside. A rush of people through the gate was created, resulting in an unsafe situation when someone could have been hurt or trampled.

The rest of the visit was lovely, but the entrance could be improved greatly.

Was beautiful and historic! I was so excited to go because I love the Phantom of the Opera. We did the self guided tour which I found somewhat confusing. I wish they would have had more signage pointing things out or explaining where to go. I felt as though we kept going in circles! I would suggest a guided tour if you want to see it all and not feel lost!

Prachtig gebouw/monument! Genoten van de eerste trede die je neemt om de imposante trappenhal naar boven te stappen. Ook waande ik me even in een franse filmklassieker namelijk La Grande Vadrouille.

Love our self-guided tour at The Opéra Garnier. We were there around 3 pm on a Thursday and the lineup was short and we are able to enter quickly. The experience was amazing!

The self-guided tour with the pad for directions, pictures, and stories was great. We didn’t need to try and hear a personal guide over the noise in the rooms. Great option for this visit.

The Opera was ah inspiring, the opulence was not to be believed, the craftsmanship on the displayed costumes detail you would not see from the audience
