Thoroughly enjoyed my visit here. Be prepared to do a lot of walking! This museum is absolutely huge!! And I would also suggest to arrive early and with a plan in mind of what you wish to see since the saying goes… if you spent 30 seconds looking at every piece in the museum (that is non stop 24 hours each day) that it would take you over 6 months to get around to seeing everything… so if you want to see the main attractions I’d suggest becoming familiar with where they are located in the museum so you’re not wasting time just walking around!! And arrive early! Like 8/9am is good. That way you can get a solid 5/6 hours to get around efficiently!

Full description

Explore the Louvre at your own pace with a timed-entrance ticket, ensuring you get in within 30 minutes. See unmissable and iconic artwork such as the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo. Discover Renaissance masterpieces and ancient Egyptian relics, along with paintings from the 13th to 20th centuries. The museum first opened on August 10, 1793, exhibiting just 537 paintings. Despite closing in 1796 due to structural problems, it reopened in 1801 as the Musée Napoléon with a larger collection.  The collection has since gained 20,000 works. Now, there are 8 departments: Egyptian Antiquities; Near Eastern Antiquities; Greek, Etruscan, and Roman Antiquities; Islamic Art; Sculpture; Decorative Arts; Paintings; and Prints and Drawings.

  • Skip-the-ticket-line timed entrance to the Louvre Museum

My sister uses a walking stick and from us arriving in the queue, we were taken through so that she didn't have to stand for a long time, which was greatly appreciated. The staff were wonderful and we managed to get a good view of the Mona Lisa - which was my main reason for going this time. We could have spent a lot more time there, so much to look at and enjoy. The building itself is as beautiful as you would imagine. Such a fabulous experience.
