Awesome evening, can hardly explain it. Really highly recommended. Only confusing thing is that in the confirmation email it says you have to exchange your tickets somewhere but this turned out not to be necessary, they could scan the qr codes on the spot without exchange.View original review in DutchMario

The visit was good, there was almost no one so there were no queues for anything, we did not go with a guide. The place is monumental, very good, very big and varied, so big that it becomes saturated.View original review in SpanishJonas

You have free choice though part you wanted to visit, the staff was very friendly and helpful. Me first time visiting the Invalides was only for the tomb of Napoleon, now I have seen almost everything because it was my turn for the time trial of the Olympics and it was still early. Top experience Merci to everyone for the staff of the InvalidesView original review in Dutch
