Our tour guide was so animated and we learned so much & had such a great time but The only sucky part we weren’t able to enter the second half of the museum because our tour guide didn’t give us our tickets. The tickets I printed out didn’t give us access to the second half. I was extremely disappointed.

Gave good background on the history and some tidbits about how the city is structured. Brought us to the main exhibits and provided input on a few pieces we passed. Would recommend. Tour guide was quite the character, my boyfriend and I enjoyed ourselves.

Full description

Marvel at relics from Ancient Egypt to the art of the Italian Renaissance on a guided tour of the Louvre Museum. 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 Anthony Canova’s emotional Psyche Revived by Cupid’s Kiss. Hear the true story depicted in Gericault’s Raft of Medusa. 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.

Fabulous. Except for the fact we did not go to Napoleons apartment as advertised.
