It’s Valid!
I got nervous after ordering my tickets, because I didn’t get the email with the tickets until the next day. I got the confirmation email right away, but not the actual tickets until the next day. Then I read some bad reviews from other people saying they had gotten scammed. So I got nervous. But then the tickets came in an email, and they worked! I’ll also tell you that all the other ticket sites were sold out of their tickets for this event (touring the Palais Garnier), as well as tickets directly at the Palais Garnier. People were being turned away. So I was very happy to find these tickets! I will use this site again in the future to buy tickets, for sure.

Boat was lovely went at twilight and the dark with lit buildings was nice. Bit of a scrum to get on pard and not especially fun queuing with no info in the cold. But once on board we sat inside and popped out every now and then. Audio tour wasn't up to much but sights were better.
