While exploring Les Invalides on your own is an option, given the complex’s rich history and the numerous museums within it, taking a guided tour will greatly enhance your experience. A professional guide or audio guide ensures you don’t miss out on interesting insights that could otherwise be overlooked. You have two options:
Paris's Army Museum (Musée de l'Armée) is one of the 3 largest arms museums in the world and home to one of the biggest military history and art collections on the planet. This collection shows the evolution of military equipment from the 13th to the 17th century and contains some noteworthy archeological finds. It illustrates the role that armor and weaponry had throughout Europe during the Middle Ages and Renaissance.
Access included: Yes
The Dôme des Invalides was built to impress during Louis XIV's reign and served as a cathedral. At 107 meters tall, it remains the tallest church in Paris. Napoleon ordered the conversion of the royal chapel into a resting place for France’s military heroes. In the 19th century, the Dôme des Invalides was home to Napoleon I's tomb and housed Allied pilots during World War II.
This is where the Aura immersive experience takes place.
Access included: Yes
The Museum features 28 illustrations from a series of relief maps depicting fortified towns created between 1668 and 1875. These magnificent models served as both symbols of territorial dominance and instruments for strategic planning.
Access included: Yes
The Museum of the Order of the Liberation chronicles the history of Free France between 1940 and 1945. The museum narrates the tale of the deportation, the internal resistance, and Free France as part of the Companions of the Liberation.
Access included: Yes
Louis XIV placed a high value on religion, as seen by the Saint-Louis Cathedral, located at the center of the Hôtel des Invalides. Thanks to the building's rich history, visitors can travel back in time in a magnificent setting.
Access included: Yes
A significant portion of the artillery and monumental sculpture collections are on display in the main courtyard, which is at the center of the Les Invalides complex and hosts several events. In the middle of the south gallery stands the statue of Napoleon I. Molds of sculptures from the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, which feature troops from the Grande Armée, encircle it.
Access included: Yes
If you have a ticket to the Army Museum, you will automatically gain access to the Tomb of Napoleon, Museum of Relief Maps, the Museum of the Order of Liberation, Artillery Collections, and the Saint-Louis des Invalides Cathedral.
Give yourself 3 to 4 hours to cover all parts of Les Invalides in detail.
Children under the age of 18 and European citizens under the age of 26 can enter Les Invalides for free.
Visitors with mobility impairments can borrow a wheelchair (subject to availability) at the ticket desk on the Esplanade des Invalides and Place Vauban sides.
Yes, you can explore only Napoleon’s tomb. However, you get access to the entire complex of Les Invalides.
No, you will not be able to re-enter Les Invalides once you exit the complex.
No, a ticket to Les Invalides includes access to the temporary exhibitions.
No, museum entry and special night events (like light shows) require separate tickets; there’s no combined ticket for both.
It was great to see a final resting place for someone so famous & relevant in history. The buildings were spectacular
Incredible place , all the history around , the beautiful construcción. Amazing 🤩
Beautiful place! Definitely coming back
It was a plaisaint experience...I 've been several times in Paris but I never thought to visit The Tomb of Napoleon. Thank you🙏
No queues, well guided by the staff, perfect audio-guide download. Huge museum, I'll be back. The Napoleon dome is a nugget.
It was very easy to quickly book the tickets; it wasn't very crowded at all and the Tomb of Napoleon was a breathtaking sight to see. Visiting this place (even when it was near closing hours) really made our day of my mum and I.
There vere a lot of people there. It was interesting for me and my kids. The guns,the clothes and other equipments people used at that moment. So we even took family photo there
For the Army/Napoleon Museum, under-18s don't have to pay, but they do need a ticket. We had to queue to get a free ticket even though we had our paid tickets on the app. For the cruise, but only once! Almost 600 people in the boat. Luckily we were able to get up and stand alongside the boat so we could enjoy it more.
Fabulous museum with a lot of military history including French military history during the two world wars. The building was worth seeing as well as Napoleon's tomb. Buying tickets from Headout allowed us to skip the very long line of people wanting to buy entrance tickets.
This display was very comprehensive and informative. The mix of media, from objects to written explanations to video. Very well done. Better than we expected
The museum is extraordinary, very well decorated with interactive videos that tell real stories. You should take the time to go through it in detail as it takes a while to do so. Then you enter the crypt where the remains of Napoleon Bonaparte rest. Everything is magnificent to visit. It is well worth it.
French history is very important to me, and past wars and the reasons for them are well explained throughout the exhibition.
Very good experience, the ticket accepted on any entrance of the museum departmens. But (not sure) internet should be active.
We loved Napoleon's tomb, church, the surrounds. Just the grandeur of it all. Awesome truly. Merci beaucoup. But the signage when you come out of the subway says to go left. You should go right. Probably not your responsibility but frustrating especially in this heat. Thank you.
It was a great exhibition. We went a bit late, so we didn't get to see everything. The audio guide was complex, because it wasn't coordinated with anything we were seeing.
The audio guide was perfect. The sites are magical and I wanted to share them with my son, especially the tomb and the Napoleon crypt. The only downside, and it was explained to me at the reception desk, was the price of the ticket I bought remotely: excessive and disproportionate.
The museum is well planned and laid out. Very informative about France's history. Loved the information about the French resistance during Workd War Ii. Napoleon tomb building is fantastic.
Tutto molto interessante. Peccato solo che i biglietti per i vambini, anche se gratuiti, non si possano fare direttamente da app.
The best part was seeing the Done Church and Napoleon's tomb. We didn't realise you didn't have to book the Army museum to see this church. The army museum was ok but we found it a bit boring not being part of our history.
We had to show out tickets multiple times during the visit. I found it difficult to keep having to find the actual ticket amongst the many confirmation notices I received. Otherwise the visit and services were fine.
This experience is perfect to get tickets easily through the web, it includes the visit to all the exhibitions and it is worth visiting this complex.
There was no queue so there is no need to purchase tickets first
Phenomenal, everything perfect 👌, without any problem and super friendly people.
An incredible place! The crypt is also a must-see.
A fabulous museum. My kids loved it so much

It was a great tour 🧿🧿🧿 nice scenery with important points on the route.
Easy admission and comfortable ride
Tour itself was great experience and guide inside the cruise was very kind. However the team outside the cruise guiding the lines are not friendly and they are not paying attention on how to manage the lines instead they were busy chatting among themselves . The following is what happened and made our group experience bitter. The day we went it was very hot and very long line. We are group of 8 with 4 kids ranging from 17-3 years old. As one can understand we were standing in the line for more than 50 mins and it was a hot day. Kids obviously don't want to stand in the line so they were sitting in shade. By the time our time has come to enter the cruise, we couldn't locate our kids because they went for a rest room break and buying snack in th same complex. As it was very crowded in all directions and poor phone signal and that too we are from outside country so little we can do to locate them on time when we had to enter , all this time we were standing in the line except kids. To respect others time, we didn't hold the line rather asked the people behind us to move forward. The problem here is since the cruise guiding team was not paying attention or not present, the moment we found our kids we were trying to enter and the cruise team suddenly showed up and said we cannot cut the line and we have to start again by standing in the line for an hour(kidding me) then we had to explain and they were pushing us by touching us etc. we didn't want to give up coz we were genuinely standing in the line . After few back and forth conversation we were allowed but if they would have paid attention all this hassle could have been avoided. Simply they didn't do their job and made our exp bitter. Company should seriously look at these staffs and train them to do their job properlyy

Lovely way to see the main sights whilst enjoying the motion of the boat and the ambience of the river way. We stood at the bottom deck but out on one side and at the very front railing so had a great time. Not enough seats up on the roof though.
What I enjoyed the most was the views and the boat. It's the second time I did the experience with bateaux parisiens this year. Good.
This was one of the highlights of our trip. The views were beautiful, the boat was clean and safe, and it was not overcrowded. Both children and adults in our group had a lovely time. We could have stayed on much longer.
Choosing the right seat is very important, and sitting on the left-hand side is rather interesting. A little Marseillaise on the way.
French history is very important to me, and past wars and the reasons for them are well explained throughout the exhibition.
We still enjoyed it but the boat was crowded and the guide spoke very fast as he had 3 languages to speak. Reign it back and appreciate your tourists rather than trying to mass tourist instead.
Everything went very well. The trip was great, we saw the main attractions in Paris and the guide told us about the history of each place. Buying the tickets was also super easy. Definitely an experience to repeat.
The museum is well planned and laid out. Very informative about France's history. Loved the information about the French resistance during Workd War Ii. Napoleon tomb building is fantastic.
Nice from seine good picture and also in short time perception of the environment. And new images that you normally can not see

The museum and gardens are beautiful. It is, however, very hot inside and also, interested visitors should do well to read up on Rodin and his works beforehand.
The exhibition is great, the museum enhances it even more, and the gardens complete a unique experience in Paris.
My wife has always wanted to visit the Musee Rodin and see his art and that of Camille Claudel in person. We enjoyed a great experience!
I had already visited the museum in 1992. I remembered it vaguely, very endearing, I remember that the "Pere Tanguy" was hanging on a wall of the staircase. Now with the remodeling works and the acquisition of new sculptures acquisition of new sculptures, it has become wonderfully beautiful. A must for lovers of sculpture and especially those of Rodin. Ah, impressive the amount of pieces that can be seen, both inside and in the garden. You can not miss it!
The Rodin Museum was wonderful, not only for the magnificent art but also the fact that it was not so crowded. You could really enjoy the exhibits. The gardens were peaceful and the café was a perfect spot to sit and savor the beauty.
It was great to see a final resting place for someone so famous & relevant in history. The buildings were spectacular
Learning about the door of Rodin's work and legacy
Incredible place , all the history around , the beautiful construcción. Amazing 🤩

Obtaining a scanable ticket left a stain on the actual enjoyment of the museum and grounds. We had an email. The button was not clickable. I had to get the museum wifi to get to the headout website to find the non obvious location of the help chat area. That person was helpful using my booking number
French history is very important to me, and past wars and the reasons for them are well explained throughout the exhibition.
The curation of Rodin's artistic evolution indoors combined with his sculptures in landscape outdoors made for so much more than a museum visit. A great experience!
Very good experience, the ticket accepted on any entrance of the museum departmens. But (not sure) internet should be active.
There were no queues or crowds between 12:00 and 15:00. The impressive sculptures could be viewed in detail in the extensive, beautiful sculpture garden with shady areas and a restaurant. The works of Camille Claudel should be highlighted much more clearly for me.
The exhibition of works by Rodin and Camille Claudel really moved us. All that strength in movement! And as a little bonus, our meal at the café in the garden...very good!
The museum is well planned and laid out. Very informative about France's history. Loved the information about the French resistance during Workd War Ii. Napoleon tomb building is fantastic.
