About this tour
A small-group guided tour through the Louvre's celebrated galleries, limited to six people maximum. Over two hours, your guide unpacks the stories behind celebrated works—the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, Winged Victory of Samothrace—and steers you toward lesser-known pieces that reward closer looking. This isn't a rushed sprint through rooms; it's a chance to linger with art and understand the civilisations that created it. Entrance included.

What to expect
You'll meet your guide at the designated Louvre entrance with valid ID in hand. Everyone enters together as a group—this isn't a self-guided wander. Expect considerable walking through galleries; comfortable shoes are essential. Your guide will move you through signature pieces first, then branch into adjacent rooms where fewer tourists cluster. You'll pause at paintings and sculptures long enough to absorb their backstory rather than glance and move. The pace suits moderate fitness; if stairs or sustained standing poses difficulty, a private tour suits you better. Children under 18 and eligible EU residents qualify for free admission with proof.
