Quai Branly – Jacques Chirac Museum Tickets

Step into a museum unlike any other in Paris, where the spotlight shines on indigenous art and stories from around the world.

  • Everything you get: Explore a museum dedicated to indigenous cultures and craftsmanship, with permanent exhibits featuring artifacts and art from across Africa, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas. Your ticket also gives you access to four temporary exhibitions like Golden Threads and Dakar–Djibouti. Enjoy the river-like architectural layout and unwind in the serene garden after your visit.
  • Why choose this: Most Paris museums highlight Western art like Greco-Roman sculptures, Renaissance paintings, or French impressionism. Quai Branly offers a meaningful contrast, celebrating non-Western traditions like Aboriginal carvings, African masks, Polynesian textiles, and more. Broaden your cultural lens and enjoy a quieter, reflective space, away from the usual tourist bustle.
  • Upgrades: Add the Seine River sightseeing cruise, just a short walk from the museum for a relaxing glide past Paris’s most iconic landmarks.

Unforgettable Eiffel Tower Summit Tour – Thanks to Joanna! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Finding our guide was easy, and from the very beginning, Joanna stood out with her professionalism. She gave us a clear safety briefing and set expectations early on—there was no skip-the-line access, and we might have to wait. And we did—almost two hours! But honestly, it didn’t feel that long at all because Joanna kept us thoroughly engaged. With her arsenal of fun facts, quirky trivia, and rich history of the Eiffel Tower, she turned what could’ve been a frustrating wait into an educational and entertaining part of the experience. Her energy, knowledge, and customer service were second to none—hands down the best I’ve encountered during my entire trip in Paris. Joanna didn’t just guide us to the top—she elevated the whole experience. Highly recommended!

Rafael was a fantastic guide- he walked us up through some beautiful photo spots, took lots of pictures of my husband and I, and answered all of our questions not just about the Eiffel Tower but about life in Paris. It wasn't a crowded night but it was still so nice to follow someone who knew exactly where to go and just be able to take it all in. Highly recommend this experience!

What a great experience from start to finish almost :) we started the tour outside the pick up address and like most we arrived early tami the tour guide was amazing but she was just filling in as Abbie our actual guide was running late due to metro issue. That being said tami was amazing got us through security and to the lift quickly and efficiently. Abbie arrived just as we where about to board the lift very apologetic and with her note book in hand proceeded to take our tour with an abundance of information. We loved it the kids loved it and it was an amazing experience we will never forget. Thinking of doing one I'd definitely recommend it the Eiffel Tower is a must!

I am happy with this experience because it was one of my wife's birthday presents-she was really happy and that's what counts! Unfortunately, however, I must observe that the one and a half hour wait to go up the tower was really too long and inexplicable! Especially since having already bought tickets we should have had priority. Luckily we had a very nice and very good guide Mademoiselle LIZ who entertained us by telling us the history of Eiffel, many funny stories and many anecdotes that made the wait less heavy.

Admission went perfectly. Ticket for 12:30 - inside the Louvre at 12:32. Whether this was due to the head out - I don't know - I think we would have got in with any other ticket. We had already joined the queue at 11:30 and were therefore right at the front of the line. TIP: Be there 1 hour in advance - then you'll be inside quickly at the specified time - the stewards will make sure of that outside. AND: You first have to show and scan your ticket when you are inside and want to go to one of the halls - not at the entrance, where only the bags are checked (scanner like at the airport) and not down in the hall under the pyramid roof. The better entrance is at the pyramid - not at the Caroussell - it's full everywhere - but it's much better at the pyramid ... Getting out of the Louve is more difficult than getting in - we got lost several times despite flyers and signs - finally found the Caroussell exit where there is a shopping mile. As the mall is already full anyway and then the long queues to get into the Louvre - unbelievable and bad. Outside at the pyramid it is very well organized. But you need at least 3 hours to see a small part of it. It's best to go in twice on different days to see everything. Everyone just wants to see the Mona Lisa anyway - further through the Egyptian finds, total emptiness ...

It is the most interesting museum, and with the audio guide you are immersed in the history of the paintings, it would just need to be better organized for the viewing of the Mona Lisa, to give everyone a way to be able to see it from the front... All in all, a very good experience.

The king's halls and the frescoed ceiling in addition to the jugonde and of course the Italian paintings and Greco-Roman statues. It needs to be improved with a sense of visitation and numbering the rooms is very large and therefore very dispersive.

Head Out tickets worked perfect, but the Louvre Museum was overcrowded. Especially in the Mona Lisa room, first about 1/2 an hour to get first in line to have good fotos, and then we were not allowed closer than about 4-5 meters from the picture, which is so small it was difficult to see details.

We had booked the 3rd floor of the Eiffel Tower. We were denied access due to the extreme heat. The amount was supposed to be refunded to us. I have not yet received a credit to my credit card account.

The place is a jewel, but there are no clear signs in several languages to know especially the most relevant paintings.

The guide at the Eiffel Tower said he was not allowed to stay on the 2nd platform to tell us something, maybe it is true, but we had the idea that he wanted to get rid of us quickly. He sent us right to the top, we didn't see him after that. We got by, so fine. But then a lot of money for just the entrance.

Die Tickets für das Musée de l'Orangerie und Musée d'Orsay waren sofort verfügbar. Da es eine separate Warteschlange für Besucher ohne Tickets gab, entstanden für uns keine Wartezeiten. Der Besuch des Museum l'Orangerie ist auf eine halbe Stunde begrenzt, was viel zu kurz ist. Von einem 30 Minütigen Besuch der Orangerie ist auf jeden Fall abzuraten, das ist nur Abzocke. Allerdings wurden wir beim rausgehen nicht kontrolliert. Das Musse d'Orsay schliesst offiziell um 18:00, un 17:45 waren schon einige Räume geschlossen, daher dieses Museum früher einplanen, es gibt kein Zeitlimit ausser den Öffnungszeiten.

Very unique museum, well executed. Served an important time bridge between visiting other time booked close by attractions, Eiffel Tower and River supper cruise specifically.

Things to know before you book your tickets to the Quai Branly Museum

  • You have the option to purchase your tickets online or on-site. It is highly recommended to buy your tickets online, as while you’ll have to wait in a line at the ticket counter on-site, online tickets get you direct entry to the museum without any last-minute hassle. 
  • As the ticket prices may increase during exhibit periods, you can check the same for your preferred day while booking online. This lets you make an informed decision while planning your visit. 
  • Children under 18 (non-EU), young adults under 26 (EU), and people with disabilities with a companion can visit for free. However, you will have to contact the museum directly to get the free tickets as well. 
  • Your tickets include access to all areas of the museum as well as the temporary and permanent collections on display at the time. Be sure to check the exhibition schedule for the day of your visit. However, shows and events are not included in your tickets and have to be purchased separately. 
  • To attend the "Zombies exhibition. Death is not the end?", you must book a  time-stamped free admission ticket online. The exhibition runs from October 8, 2024, to February 16, 2025. Once you've booked your ticket, be sure to bring both your reservation confirmation and the pre-purchased ticket to the museum entrance.

Why visit the Quai Branly Museum

A cultural array

Housing an extensive collection of over 700,000 photographs and 300,000 artifacts from Asia, Africa, Oceania, and the Americas, including musical instruments, textiles, and clothing, the museum is a treasure trove of cultural diversity, all under one roof.

All about the architectural genius

Designed by Jean Nouvel with a vision to create "a museum built around a collection," Quai Branly is built on stilts along the banks of the River Seine, surrounded by lush gardens. Its unique design philosophy emphasizes fluidity and transparency like no other.

An ethnographic approach

Unlike traditional art museums that focus on aesthetic appreciation with decorative arts, the Quai Branly Museum adopts an ethnographic approach, prioritizing the study and presentation of artifacts related to the customs, traditions, and daily lives of various ethnic groups.
