Join a small group of 6 people or fewer, and an expert guide for a 3-hour tour of the Louvre Museum. Skip the line and explore more than 35,000 works of art with an expert guide!
Travel back in time and trust your guide to navigate the halls, conveying you efficiently to the most important works, but also pointing out numerous lesser-known beauties that you might have passed without noticing. You might appreciate the French Crown Jewels, Egyptian antiquities many thousands of years old, sculptural wonders by Michelangelo, and large-format canvases such as Liberty Leading the People and the Coronation of Napoleon.
Before becoming the permanent abode of countless artistic treasures, the Louvre was a royal palace for over 400 years; a visit to the Louvre is a walk through history. You’ll have a chance to see the foundations of the original medieval fortress that stood on this spot, and you’ll gape at the Apollo Gallery where Louis XIV experimented with self-glorification before moving to Versailles. You may also admire the richly furnished and decorated salons preserved from the Second Empire, the last time the Louvre was home to a sovereign.
At the end of the tour, you can stay in the museum... until closing time if you wish!
