Are Children FREE in Museums in Paris, London and Italy?

Children under 18 are free at National sites and at some other museums BUT Without a MUSEUM PASS, you will have to stand on the very long lines in order to account for the children.  Some sites may require admission for children under 18, but usually you don't have to wait in line with pass holders present.  There is no guarantee however and EUROQUEST suggests purchasing a regular pass for children  simply to gain precious time at each Museum or Monument.

What is the difference between an Electronic Voucher and a Physical Pass - Ticket?

Certain products on our site are available as Electronic Vouchers.  These Vouchers can be printed from the comfort of your own home and are redeemable for the actual Passes or Tickets, once in the city that you are using the service for. 

Back to top

Why should I choose an Electronic Voucher versus a Physical Pass - Ticket?

Vouchers are very convenient for several reasons:

  • Last minute orders:  You may not have the time to receive the actual passes via mail.  Printing your own voucher and redeeming it once over in the city you are traveling to is the perfect solution.

  • Saves on costly shipping: You do not get charged for shipping when you select Vouchers, as you actually print the Voucher on your home or office printer.

Remember:  It is essential that you travel with a printout of your voucher, which is unique to your booking and is your proof of purchase. The voucher must be presented together with valid photo ID upon commencement of your selected tour, and you may not be permitted to join the tour without the voucher. There may also be separate instructions on your voucher, under the Important Information field, which you will need to read in advance of your tour.

What do I do with my Electronic Voucher?
