Itinerary
Meet your guide just outside the Louvre Museum at the location listed on your booking voucher. With timed entry and group access, you'll bypass the main queue for individual visitors and pass through a brief security line before stepping into the world's largest museum. From there, your art historian guide leads your small group onto a curated route through the Louvre's most famous rooms.
Marvel at the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, and Winged Victory of Samothrace, then take in some of France's most powerful paintings, including Delacroix's Liberty Leading the People, Géricault's Raft of the Medusa, and David's Coronation of Napoleon. The tour wraps up at Psyche Revived by Cupid's Kiss in the Michelangelo Gallery, where you'll have time to ask any final questions before saying goodbye outside the museum.

Best birthday ever. The people and the tour guy amazing, very knowledgeable about the art and history of the museum.
Our guide was so great, incredibly knowledgeable, and funny. Was the perfect first tour of the Louvre and would love to go back for others! I'm so sorry I forgot his name!!
Our guide was so knowledgeable and helpful. He made sure everyone in the group was comfortable and never seemed to be bored although I am sure he has done many of the same tours before
Feta gave our group a wonderful tour! He kept everyone engaged and interested. He was very knowledgeable. I would certainly recommend him to others.
It was a great tour. the tour guide was very knowledgeable. He showed us the do you have a 5 or 10 year-old, a 5 or 10 year-old? Oh good, good, good. Oh my God, she just gave me. Yeah, cause I’ve only got 20s and 50s. Do you have enough to do another tip? OK, if we can, if we can, if That’d be great. Good. He showed us the highlights of the Louvre. And explain all the history behind the different sculptures and painting that we saw.
Very informative and interesting tour! Loved every minute of it! Fetah was very friendly, and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.
Fetach was great easy to understand . Knowledge was impeccable and I was satisfied with how much we learned.
Fantastic! The knowledge, history and perspective of the art was amazing! We had an awesome time & can’t wait to return!
It was a great way to see and appreciate the major highlights of the Lourve. The guide helps bring a deeper appreciation to the visit.
What a wonderful tour! Ruth is brilliant! If you are lucky enough to have her as your tour guide you will be more than pleased! She is so knowledgeable and an expert at navigating the Louvre. We learned so much and it was the highlight of our trip to Paris!
Excellent tour, beautiful place highly recommended. The tour guide is excellent, he show you the art and history
We got bumped into a larger group because not enough people signed up for the semi-private tour, but the Tour Guy team ensured we still got to see the museum. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. We purchased the package to have a more intimate experience and mistakenly thought the advertisement about access to the Mona Lisa meant a less restricted access. In retrospect, our guide insightful and helped ensure we got to some of the key pieces by being in a large group limited our interactions and we spent half of the time waiting for inconsiderate guests to catch up. If you’re looking to go exploring, don’t buy a guided tour. If you’re looking for someone to point you in the right directions, share interesting insights about the work and the museum, then this group is a great resource to help navigate such a large collection.
Marianne was our tour guide and was so friendly and informative. She went over and beyond on explaining the history. She checked on the group to make sure we were together at all times and was considerate of our needs. As our first trip to Paris I would recommend this tour for any family.
Will was our guide and his knowledge of the Louvre made this an excellent tour. He took the time to dive into the art and give us real insight into what we were looking at. Would absolutely recommend for anyone’s first time there!
Amazing experience with Sid. Knowledgeable and funny.
Excellent guide from the Tour Guy. Great overview of the Louvre. Only glitch was viewing the Mona Lisa. Too crowed, no organized control of # of people this was a museum issue.
Great tour with a very knowledgeable tour guide, Alfie! He knew lots of information and he was engaging!
2hr tour of highlights of Louvre with Hajid . Lots of detail offered on paintings and sculptures. 2 hours long
Avi was very knowledgeable, patient and funny. His humor kept us engaged while dealing with large crowds.
Very good guide. Knowledgeable and friendly. Day was crazy as The Louvre tour was cancelled due to protests but our guide ensured us we'd have no issues at the Notre Dame
The Louvre is a huge museum that can be quite overwhelming. Having a guide kept the experience simple and uncomplicated.
Sarah was a wonderfully knowledgeable and personable guide! She has a clearly deep knowledge of the history of both the Louvre itself and the pieces she showed us that was complemented by the personal touches she peppered into her spiel. She was happy to answer any and all questions we had and we had a lovely time at the Louvre under her guidance!
Excellent guide. Very funny and knowledgeable.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and we could tell she enjoyed her work and enjoyed history. I would recommend everyone get “skip the line” tickets to see the Louvre. Otherwise you will be in huge lines, even for the bathroom. Our original tour was canceled and Viator did everything right to get us in another tour. They texted, emailed and called to make sure everything was right for us.
Sid, our guide, was absolutely fabulous start to finish. He was a wealth of knowledge and very entertaining!
Sarah did a great job leading our group through the key pieces in the Louvre along with some history and kept things very entertaining! Definitely book if you are looking to see the Louvre without being overwhelmed!
Sid was hilarious and very knowledgeable. A really fantastic guide.
We took the highlights trip of about 2,5 Hours with Will and it was outstanding. Imparting his knowledge of the Louvre and French History to us really educated me in understanding the era in which the Louvre started and evolved. Its a great trip of the Louvre and the section of art leading to the Mona Lisa. Highly recommend.
Efficient, seamless, easy and a wonderful, knowledgeable art historian as our guy with The Tour Guy. WILLIAM. WE NEVER COULD HAVE DONE THIS ON OUR OWN. THE LOUVRE has so much more to offer than just the Mona LisA
William was amazing! Super knowledgeable and kept tour entertaining, even for our 6 year old! Would highly recommend.
Sarah was amazing,she was very knowledgeable of every detail in the Museum.I highly recommend to book a guided tour with Sarah.
We were upgraded to a Private Tour. The Tour guide was exceptional! She was very informative and knowledgeable.
The guide was excellent but the Viatour app didn’t provide enough information to find our guide. There are multiple tour companies and the app didn’t say which company we were supposed to be looking for.
Sarah is our guide. She is wonderful and nice. Thanks for everything. I am happy with her
Avi our tour guide was very informative and funny. He had so much interesting information about all the history of not only the museum but the sculptures and paintings. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you.
Avi is so smart! He brought so much knowledge to the tour and did it with interest and humor. A great tour!
Nico was fabulous! We love everything he said and showed us. We learned a lot and now appreciate even more French history! Thank you Nico!!!
This is an excellent highlight tour, 2.5 hours touring the Louvre. You can’t see it all but our guide was great and very informative.
Good experience overall with very knowledgeable guide who speaks good english too. Special thanks for answering my call for a request to wait at meeting place due to a RER train accident and I was a bit late.
This tour is great to see the highlights vs a whole day tour. Our guide, Fabian, was excellent! She explained what we were looking at very well and maneuvered us around the Louve. Would recommend this to anyone who doesn’t want to spend a day or more here.
It was a great way to see the Louver Museum if you are a first timer and want to save time waiting in line. This was A skip the line tour with about 20 people in our group. Our guide was amazing and informative and very funny. Had a great time learning about French history and seeing the beautiful architecture. The best part was being able to finally see Mona Lisa painting in person. It was crowded and difficult to get a picture, but the whole experience was really good.
SID IS GREAT, TAKE HIS TOUR. I probably you won't regret it.
Had a great tour of the Louvre with Effi. It was crowded, but she knew all the tricks to work us around the crowds. I don’t think we could have seen as much as we did without the tour.
Great experience as there is lots to see. The tour guide she was very informative and great knowledge . Worth going to see.
Sid gave an enjoyable fast paced and highly informative as well as entertaining tour of the highlights of the amazing Louvre.
Sarah was amazing!! Very kind and knowledgeable, the tour was very interesting and informative I would definitely recommend!!
It’s best to have a guide in the Louvre unless you just want to wonder aimlessly. Our guide was interesting and knowledgeable and we learned much more than we would have on our own.-
Overall very good experience, good tour. Tour guide very knowledgeable and friendly. Only negative was the crowd size.
Sid is a wonderful tour guide!
