Expert Tip. The quickest way to get to one of the most famous attractions in Paris, the Musee d'Orsay, is by walking through Tuileries Gardens to the Passarelle Solferino. It crosses the River Seine just outside the museum on the Quai Anatole France, which is also a departure point for Seine and canal cruises.
