Hello, We are taking our 7 year old and our 9 year old to Paris this summer. We are buying tickets for the big museums online so that we don't have to wait in line. But, we've read that even though children under 18 are free, they still need a 'free ticket'. Does anyone know how to get these without waiting in line?
I hope it is not too late to answer your question. I traveled to Paris with my 16 yr-old daughter last year. I bought a Museum Pass for me, and I knew she would enter for free. At first we really didn´t know that she had to pick a "free ticket", so we went straight to the entrance. They told us she "should have picked" a free entrance ticket but they let us in anyway. She had to get a "free entrance" ticket at Les Invalides (Napolen Tomb), Arc du Triomphe, Musee Rodin and Pompidou. At Musee Rodin there's an automatic machine where you can get the tickets. She was old enough to go and pick the tickets while I waited in line to enter, but I guess with small children there's no way of avoiding the line, except you can explain you just need to pick the free ticket and people let you go first.
