 4 days Paris Museum Pass by breughel
It gives free entry and direct access to 60 museums and monuments in and around Paris (e.g. Versailles). The number of visits is unlimited and you can buy the pass before the day you are going to use him.
2 DAY pass costs 32 €
4 DAY pass costs 48 €
6 DAY pass costs 64 € (new prices 2009)
THE FORMER MUSEUM CARD FOR 1, 3 OR 5 DAYS DOES NOT EXIST ANYMORE.
You can buy the museum pass at the museums and monuments but take a small museum in order to avoid queuing. You can also buy the pass at the FNAC stores and the Tourism Offices. There is one at the Carrousel du Louvre.
The average price for a museum entry is between 6 and 10 € so that you can calculate if it is interesting for you. Note that entrance is free in many museums for less than 18 yr old visitors.
As what concerns direct access you should know that most Paris large museums have a security check so that even with a pass you might have to queue but certainly less than other visitors. Also note that there is no privileged access at the towers of Notre-Dame.
Please note the Paris Museum Pass is for NATIONAL Museums and Monuments.
There are also "Musées de la Ville de Paris" like the "Petit Palais" or "Musée Carnavalet" where the entry to the permanent collections is free.

 Museum pass and brochure
listing museums by tiabunna
The passes will gain you entry to over 60 museums and monuments in the Paris area, so apart from the time savings you also have a monetary saving on entry costs. Note that they are undated when you purchase them, but you must put your name and commencing date on the card when you begin visits, to activate the pass. I would rate these passes as “highly recommended, almost essential”. Phone: +33 (0)1 44 61 96 60Directions: For 2006 these passes are available for 2, 4 or 6 consecutive days, at a cost of 30€, 45€ or 60€ respectively. You can obtain them at museums and tourist offices, I picked up mine at the 'l'Open Tour' bus office.Website: http://www.parismuseumpass.fr Other Contact: email: info@parismuseumpass.fr

 Making full use of my
museum pass by fishandchips
2 day - $US39
4 day - $US58.50
6 day - $US78
You can buy the pass at larger Metro stations and at the Museums. If you are travelling via Eurostar then you can also buy the pass in the departure lounge at Waterloo station. Pricing is different as it is based in pounds - my 3 day pass cost 19UKP
The biggest advantage of the pass is no queuing. This may not sound like much but if you have seen the size of the queues at the ticket machines you will know what I mean. In the high season it can take you more than an hour to buy your ticket.
There are other companies competing for your dollar with another crowd, Paris Pass, also offering passes for 1, 2, 4 & 5 days. I didn't use this version so cannot comment on what you get. Leave a Comment Phone: +33 (0)1 44 61 96 60

 First Museum! by Susumarie
http://www.gotoparis.net/musee.php?gclid=CMjAn6a85ZUCFQOjFQodmiMKeQ
By doing this, you can look ahead to see what days each is open, find the closest metro station, get your days planned for the most smooth and productive visit. There is also a Paris Pass, but when you compare the two, I think this is the best deal. Leave a Comment

I bought paris museum card for two days (30 euros). I bought mine in Louvre, but you can also purchase it in museum and monument participant or tourist information
I entered 8 places with that card,
Saving me time for waiting in queues in museum d'orsay and museum rodin( in museum rodin there were no sign to enter with museum card so you need to go to front fo the queues and show them your museum card , they will let you in )
and other places there were no queues
I still need to wait like an hour in line to enter Notre Dame tower

You have to get a Carte Musée. This card, available all over town, gets you access to all Paris museums and monuments with the extra special benefit of not having to stand in line. This is particularly nice at the Louvre and Musée d'Orsay. It pays for itself after five visits, and you'll do that with just the Louvre, d'Orsay, Eiffel Tower, les Invalides, and Rodin. It gives you the freedom to just walk right in to anything that looks interesting. GET IT!
