Discover the most iconic works of the Louvre Museum on a guided tour designed to bring every masterpiece to life. Gain deeper insight into each artwork through engaging commentary from your guide. Skip the ticket lines. Meet your guide at the Arc du Carrousel du Louvre, just outside the museum, and begin your journey through the former residence of the Kings of France, now one of the world’s oldest and most visited museums. The Louvre’s vast collection spans from ancient civilizations to the mid-19th century. Enter the museum with fast-track access using your pre-reserved ticket and follow a carefully curated highlights route. Get up close to the Venus de Milo, the iconic sculpture that inspired generations of artists, and admire the Winged Victory of Samothrace, the celebrated Hellenistic statue representing Nike, the Greek goddess of victory. Stand before the world’s most famous Renaissance portrait, the Mona Lisa, whose dramatic theft in 1911 played a key role in its global fame. Along the way, discover both essential masterpieces and lesser-known works that deserve attention. Explore artistic treasures from the Renaissance, ancient Greek relics, paintings from the 13th to the 19th centuries, and prints from the Royal Collection. In the underground galleries of the Louvre Museum, uncover the remains of the original medieval fortress and learn about the foundations that shaped the palace’s remarkable history.
tour guide did her best, 2/5 rating is a reflection of the ludicrous overcrowding, nothing to do with the guide. The noise and obsessive need for people to run up in front of others to take their selfie with a painting/sculpture/artefact meant it was difficult to see some items. In summary, amazing place but ridiculous crowds.
Excellent
The guide was very good and very personable
