I’ve purchased 48-hour Paris Museum Passes for a trip in mid-April. I’ve reserved my time slots for the Orangerie and the Louvre. When I went to do that for Sainte-Chapelle, I saw that I could choose just Sainte-Chapelle or I could choose combined Sainte-Chapelle and Conciergerie. Under each heading, there was a place to click “I already have a ticket.” (The Paris Museum Pass website instructs that this is where passholders click, to get their time slot). Since we want to see both, I chose the combined Sainte-Chapelle/Conciergerie option.
Success, I have the time slot I want--3:30. I know that entry of sites, when a time slot is reserved, has to be within a half hour after the reserved time. But I don’t know how this works since it’s two sites. I thought the confirmation of my time slot would have instructions such as "Enter either site between 3:30 and 4:00 and enter the other between 4:00 and 4:30," but there is no such guidance. My print out of the reservation reads: “Combined ticket – I already have a ticket – Valid on [date] at 15:30.”
If we go to Sainte-Chapelle first, right at 3:30, do we have to make the visit short because we need to enter the Conciergerie before 4:00? Or does the combined ticket let us enter either site between 3:30 and 4:00 and then they’ll let us into the second one when we tell them we've just come from the first?
Did I make an error by not just doing this as two separate bookings, one for Sainte-Chapelle and one an hour later for Conciergerie, so that we're not rushed in Sainte-Chapelle, needing to squeeze both entries into a half hour slot?
If I do need to enter the Conciergerie by 4:00, is that enough time in Sainte-Chapelle? I know they are a 1 minute walk apart.
