Don’t just see the Louvre Museum, really experience it with our Semi-Private Louvre Tours. We follow a carefully planned route to show you the very best of the Louvre collection, from big-name masterpieces like the Mona Lisa* to works by less famous artists that will steal your heart.

Traveling with an expert, English-speaking guide in groups of only 10 people or fewer, your tour will be intimate and your guide easy to interact with. As they lead you through the collection they’ll tell you the stories that bring the artworks to life. You’ll learn about the numerous theories regarding who da Vinci’s ‘Mona Lisa’ really was. At Gericault’s ‘Raft of Medusa’ you’ll hear about the newspaper story it was based on, which told of a crew stranded on a raft who eventually resorted to cannibalism. You’ll learn about the French Revolution as depicted by the great artists of France and even learn a little Flemish history along the way!

We’ve carefully designed our Louvre tour route to visit all the most important works of the Louvre Museum. We’ll see as the ‘Mona Lisa’, Canova’s ‘Psyche Revived by Cupid’s Kiss’, Delacroix’s ‘Liberty Leading the People’, ‘Venus di Milo’ and the stunning ‘Victory of Samothrace’. We’ll see less famous works along the way and visit some of France’s underappreciated geniuses. Of course, we’ll make time to explore the Louvre as a royal palace too, visiting the Napoleon apartments and seeing some of the collections stunning crowns and jewels.

With Skip the Line Access on all our Louvre tours, you won’t waste precious time waiting in line. Instead, we’ll make the best of every moment we have together, exploring the art, history and culture of France through the world’s most-visited museum. 

*Please note that due to renovation work carried on inside the Louvre until mid-October 2019, we might not be able to cover some artworks such as the Mona Lisa. Although this is not under our control, your guide will do their best to provide a quality service in line with the advertised tour length.
