Covid-19 Update
Due to health and safety regulations, this itinerary may change. See Know before you go for the latest updates.
Discover one of the world’s great art collections on a guided tour of the Louvre Museum, and marvel at relics from Ancient Egypt to the art of the Italian Renaissance. The entire collection would take months to see in full, but you will follow a carefully planned route to discover the highlights.
Gaze at da Vinci’s enigmatic Mona Lisa and see some of the less famous gems, such as Anthony Canova’s emotional Psyche Revived by Cupid’s Kiss. Hear the true story depicted in Gericault’s Raft of Medusa, and go to Napoleon’s former apartments to admire the most beautiful décor of the palace, as well as a collection of crown jewels.
The masterpieces continue with the Venus de Milo, the sculpture that inspired so many artists. Head to the basement of the Louvre Palace to see the foundations of the castle that once stood on the site.
Choose between 2 options: get your ticket and guided tour with one of the skip-the-ticket-line guided tours in several languages. Alternatively, if you already have a ticket or museum pass, choose the guided tour for ticket or museum pass holders.
