The guide we had was amazing and gave so much more than an ordinary tour. His knowledge of the paintings and sculpture was mind blowing. Never enjoyed a tour so much. Since Louvre is such an important site, I thought you should know that the guide was half of the experience. The artwork is so exceptional.

The commentary was insightful. On the whole, good experience. It was worth it. Guide (Avi) had good knowledge of the history and Louvre and an awesome sense of humor and developed a good connect with the group. The overall pace could have been a bit slow though. While the tour ticket said 3 hours we were done by 2 hrs 15. That was disappointing. Entry tickets should be handed over to us to move around freely inside and re-enter if needed. A flagpole or some tall thing should be there with tour guide so that it becomes easy to spot him in the crowds.

Your experience

Why should you visit the Louvre?

Once a Royal Palace, the Louvre was later converted into a public museum at the end of the French Revolution. Today, the Louvre houses one of the most expansive art collections in the world, with pieces from all periods. Notably, the museum has pieces from the Egyptian civilization, the Mesopotamian civilization, the Greek and Roman civilizations, along with pieces of Islamic art. Visiting the Louvre allows you to see all these art pieces, including Da Vinci’s most famous work – the Mona Lisa. If you enjoy history and classical art, make sure you visit the Louvre at least once while in Paris.

Guided tour of the Louvre

Once you join the 2-3-hour tour, you will be guided through all the sections of the Louvre by your tour guide. The guide will narrate all the details relevant to each section while highlighting the most notable pieces. See the beautiful Venus de Milo, the Winged Victory, the great French neoclassical paintings, and the masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance. Discover hidden treasures as well as crowns studded with precious jewels, ancient Egyptian antiquities, sublime Greek statues, and much more. Once the tour is over, you are free to stay and explore for as long as you wish.
