    Our guide Anna was very informative and knowledgeable of the art. Loved the small group vibe. We got far more out of the experience than we did previously without the personal experience.

    Hoa was an amazing guide! She has a wealth of knowledge and her passion for art was palpable. We are so grateful to her for this experience and know it wouldn't have been the same without her. She pointed out details that we never would have noticed and provided history and context for each piece of art. Once in a lifetime experience! Thank you for helping us check this off our bucket list!!

    Skipping the line and having an overview of selected masterpieces was a stress free experience at the Louvre, where the quantity of things to see can be seriously overwhelming. All well led by a funny, knowledgeable guide.
  • Forego the lines & enjoy a small-group or private guided tour

    Bypass the long queues and gain entry into one of the world's largest and most visited museums with reserved access. An art history expert will welcome you, setting the stage for this intimate tour limited to just 6 or 10 participants. Listen to your English-speaking guide unravel fascinating stories behind the Louvre’s iconic treasures.

    Unveiling masterpieces and hidden gems

    Start your journey through a hall filled with sculptures from the Greek and Roman eras. Here, witness the Winged Victory of Samothrace, the Venus de Milo, and the life-size sculpture of the mythological Sleeping Hermaphroditus carved by Bernini. Get to see some of the famous works by Leonardo da Vinci like St. John the Baptist before marvelling at the Mona Lisa. Your guide will also let you not miss out on the massive Wedding Feast at Cana on the opposite wall. The Louvre offers opportunities to visit works by Jacques-Louis David, Napoleon's personal painter, and Eugène Delacroix as well as a set of the Crown Jewels.

    Also, marvel at the modern glass pyramid entrance, once a matter of debate, now symbolizes the Louvre's embrace of the new amid the ancient. This tour promises not just to show you the Louvre, but to let you experience the profound narratives it houses.
