Musee d'Orsay - Early birds VIP tour

NEW in 2024 : I have daily access to the museum before it opens to the public. Please make sure you book in advance so I can plan the most perfect experience at the museum. This year we are celebrating the 150th anniversary of the first Impressionist Exhibitions. The Museum has never been so popular, hence crowded. Allow me to walk you inside the museum before the crowds to gaze at the wonders of Monet, Van Gogh, Renoir and many others in a tranquille and relaxing atmosphere.

First, we will go back to the love story between Paris and Artists in the 1800's. Relive the excitement of the 'Salon' and see how Impressionism could not have been born anywhere else. The expansion of the City of Lights, new technics and new visions, the sparkling Parisian nights and party-people. . . as a painter then, where else would you have dreamed to live? We will jump into this fantastic era to discover this once beautiful train station now turned into one of the world's most re-known museum. On your right a copy of the Statue of Liberty, on your left paintings by Manet and right in front of you some of the greatest works by Rodin. You definitely are in the right place aren't you?! Together, we will compare the Official Art of France' Second Empire and the Revolutionary Vision of the Impressionists. As the tour continue, you will get to admire the work by their disciples from all over the world: Starry night by Van Gogh or Moulin Rouge by Toulouse-Lautrec. And much more!
