I've heard of the Museum Pass, how do I get this?

Hello,
Can anyone help me with the museum pass? I will be arriving in Paris and traveling in the Benelux area for about 2 weeks and i've heard that this pass can get me in to most museums, even Versailles? Is this right? I have about 3 weeks before I go, can I order this this over the internet? Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.

You can buy the Paris Museum Pass at CDG, any participating museum or monument, branches of the Paris Tourist Office, and FNAC stores. There is no advantage to buying it in advance. The pass covers entrance to Versailles. For complete information, go to www.parismuseumpass.com.

FYI, there are some excellent independent museums, like the Musee Marmottan and the Musee du Luxembourg, that are not covered.

the pass is very handy. The easiest way to buy one is to stop at a small museum close to your hotel. That way you don't have to wait in line. If you're in the rue cler area, I suggest either Les Invalides or the Rodin Musee. With the pass, you're more likely to stop for short visits to some of the lesser visited museums.
