If you have purchased the Paris City Pass discount museum tickets...?

Question

was it a good buy???

Answer 1

That depends on what you want to do with it.

If your goal is to walk into as many tourist sights as physically possible to do so in a day then it has some value.

But most people have a limit on how many museums they can deal with in a day and, in any case,  they are more interested in actually seeing a few museums than just running thru the door and immediately running out.

That being so, the pass is probably not a good buy for most people.

For example, lets say you buy a two day pass. It costs 30 euros. Lets say you go to the Louvre on one day and the Musee d'Orsay on another. The normal admission for these two museums would be 17 euros total. Obviously the pass is a not a good deal.

Now if you up the museums to two a day, then, depending on which you pick, it can save you a little money. Make it three a day and it is a savings.
