There are no reduced price offerings (i.e. children, seniors, etc).
Is the Paris Passlib worth it?
Yes. The Paris Passlib is a good value for what you receive. But you should know there are a couple of things that make it different from other attractions passes:
- The Paris Passlib does not give you free entry to all attractions and experiences. You have a limited number of choices (based on pass price) and must select how to use your pass. So for example at the cheapest level (the Mini) you’ll receive free access to 3 of 34 attractions. With more expensive options you’ll have more choices and a great number to choose from. You can compare the options here.
- Unlike other passes that expire in a few days or less, the Paris Passlib is valid for four months from the first time it is used. There is no need to rush from activity to activity unless you want to. This is especially valuable for visitors with extra time or who plan to visit Paris multiple times in a year.
- While feedback is generally favorable, some past purchasers have noted difficulty in reserving spots for certain attractions (i.e. the Louvre) and sub-optimal customer service when issues arise. You can read customer reviews on their site.
