About this experience

This 3-hour tour of the Louvre Museum allows you to explore its renowned collection, including iconic paintings, sculptures, and architectural features. You will enter the museum directly through Reserved Access, bypassing the general admission lines. The tour is conducted in small groups of no more than 12 participants, enabling the English-speaking guide to tailor the experience to the group's interests. It is suitable for art enthusiasts and history buffs but may not be ideal for those seeking a fast-paced visit. It is important to note that this tour focuses on works spanning from nearly 450 BCE to the 19th century.

Marvel at love set in stone in Canova’s Psyche and Cupid and see Delacroix’s famous painting depicting the French struggle for freedom, Liberty Leading the People.
