The truth is a unique way to see Paris... the photos are beautiful and everything comes out beautiful. The explanation about the Arc de Triomphe is amazing and you really enjoy the whole tour... including all the stairs to get to the top.

Alles war super! Der Palast lohnt sich 100%! Es könnte aber besser organisiert werden. Wir mussten trotz Tickets lange warten um reinzukommen und es war Mega voll. Man könnte etwas die Anzahl der Besucher begrenzen. Ansonsten ein super Erlebnis. Empfehle ich weiter.

Everything was great! The palace is 100% worth it! But it could be better organized. We had to wait a long time to get in despite having tickets and it was mega crowded. The number of visitors could be limited. Otherwise a great experience. I would recommend it to others.

La visite des salles prévues = mémorable
MAIS
Nous avons du patienter 45 minutes au point de rassemblement affichant 13:30 !  Or nous y étions à 13 heures précises un couple canadien devant nous !
Le contrôle de sécurité passé, notre visite n'a commencé qu'à 14:10.
Pour un ticket coupe-file, on peut faire mieux, NON?


Visiting the planned rooms = memorable
BUT
We had to wait 45 minutes at the meeting point, which was marked 13:30!  But we were there at 1 p.m. sharp, with a Canadian couple ahead of us!
Once through the security checkpoint, our visit didn't begin until 14:10.
Can't you do better than that for a ticket?


Dominique was excellent and such a great coordinator to get us where we needed and clear on instructions. Much appreciated. 

Todo fue una visita muy linda , lo que falta es explicar que no es necesario entrar a la hora exacta si poner una franja horaria 

Everything was a very nice visit, what is missing is to explain that it is not necessary to enter at the exact time if you put a time slot.

J'ai moins apprécié le palais des mirages, c'est bien joli, mais je n'y allais pas pour cela.  Je ne connaissais pas plusieurs personnages et je m'attendais à plus de personnalités très connues, telles Brel, Brassens, Bécaud, mais je comprends que vous ne devez pas tous les mettre...  J'aurais pu me passer des personnages de l'époque de la guerre du feu et des jeux vidéo...

I didn't enjoy the Palais des Mirages as much - it's very nice, but that's not why I went there.  I didn't know many of the characters, and I was expecting more well-known personalities such as Brel, Brassens and Bécaud, but I understand that you don't have to include them all...  I could have done without the characters from the fire war and video game era...

We never received the audio guide. I could have bought a ticket when I arrived, payed a lot less and had the exact same experience.

Visiter le musée Grévin fut une aventure extraordinaire, digne d'un conte enchanté! Dès l'instant où j'ai franchi les portes, j'ai ressenti l'excitation d'un enfant de 10 ans découvrant un monde de merveilles. Chaque salle dévoilait un univers fascinant, peuplé de personnages grandeur nature si réalistes que j'ai commencé à me demander si l'un d'eux ne me ferait pas un petit clin d'œil. 

Le parcours était si captivant que je me suis retrouvé à converser avec Albert Einstein sur des équations complexes, tandis que je partageais un fou rire avec Charlie Chaplin. Le décor somptueux ajoutait à la magie de l'ensemble, transformant une simple visite en un spectacle inoubliable.

Acheter mon billet en ligne a été une bénédiction, une véritable potion magique de simplicité qui m'a permis de consacrer toute mon énergie à l'émerveillement sans fin. Bref, le musée Grévin, c'est un voyage dans le temps et l'imaginaire, une réussite éclatante qui fera scintiller vos souvenirs pour de longues années!

Visiting the Musée Grévin was an extraordinary adventure, worthy of an enchanted fairy tale! From the moment I walked through the doors, I felt the excitement of a 10-year-old discovering a world of wonders. Each room revealed a fascinating universe, populated by life-size characters so realistic that I began to wonder if one of them might wink at me.

The ride was so captivating that I found myself conversing with Albert Einstein about complex equations, while sharing a laugh with Charlie Chaplin. The sumptuous decor added to the magic of the whole, transforming a simple visit into an unforgettable spectacle.

Buying my ticket online was a blessing, a veritable magic potion of simplicity that allowed me to devote all my energy to endless wonder. In short, the Musée Grévin is a journey through time and imagination, a dazzling success that will sparkle in your memories for years to come!

The visit to the top of the Arc de Triomphe was superb.  I loved it and was very happy that I did it.  However, I had bought my ticket in advance and there was NO SIGNAGE anywhere for patrons who had pre-bought tickets.  Thus, I ended up waiting in a long line of people trying to buy tickets only to be told when I reached the ticket wicket that I hadn't needed to wait in line and could have gone ahead........but there were no instructions for those who held paid-in-advance tickets.  The people in line directly behind me were in the same situation. As this is the case, I would NOT recommend purchasing tickets to the Arc de Triomphe in advance because there is NO BENEFIT in doing so.  I ended up waiting in line with everyone purchasing tickets.  This would be an advantage if there were signs or employees directing people with pre-purchased tickets to go to circumvent the lineup to purchase tickets.

Your "Ticket Redemption Point" insteuctions did not match to on-site experience.  The ticket implied quicker access via a "reserved entry line on the right." Unfortunately, we were told there was no such line and made to wait in the lengthy "general admission" queue. 

Located bang in the city's center, the Arc de Triomphe is a Neoclassical take on the ancient Roman triumphal arch style! With these tickets gain direct entry to the monument as well as the rooftop! 

Through the information booklet available in 10 languages, get to know about its history and the battles it commemorates.

Spend as much time as you'd like at the monument as you head to the rooftop to enjoy a magnificent view of the 12 Parisian avenues.

See the base of the Arc which houses the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier; a tribute to the brave is one of the most revered monuments that honor the 1st World War's fallen.

Please note that there is free admission during the following days: European Heritage Days on the third weekend of Sep, and every first Sun of the month from Nov to Mar.

Audio guide available in English, Spanish, French, German, and Italian.

Kindly activate and download the audio guide in advance, there is no WiFi and a weak mobile signal at the meeting point.

Disclaimer: There are about 284 stairs up. 

People with reduced mobility can use the lift and ramps available.

On 29th September, there will be a delayed opening of the Arc de Triomphe. The venue will open at 12 pm (noon).
