Louvre tour

Hugo was fabulous! He brought the Louvre to life. His passion was evident. I feel we got to feel the essence of the Louvre in the 2 1/2 hours we spent with Hugo.

Louvre Museum Guided Tour

Julie was an excellent guide, great stories and sharing her knowledge about art work was really necessary and helped me to appreciate and understand art just that much more; and also while in the Louvre!

Great guide, lousy ticket information

Priority Admission to Louvre Museum

Phillip, our guide was incredible. Great personality and knowledge. He made the whole experience very special. The ticketing process by via tour is not very good. The information on the tour ticket says that it is for an entry to the museum. This information is right on top. Down below the information is stated that you must buy a separate ticket to enter the Louvre.

Excellent

Paris: Louvre Museum Timed-Entrance Ticket with Audio Guide

Easy to redeem and able to skip thr queue at allocated timing, just had to show staff the e-ticket and was able to access the louvre.

Efficient if Pricey

JOSEPH_F, May 2023

Louvre Museum Ticket & Seine River Cruise

Access to the Louvre and taking the Seine River trip was easily accomplished once we arrived at the sites. Since there is timed entry at the Louvre with limited slots available, this is the preferred option. The anytime river cruise provides a lot of flexibility.

Awesome educational

Underrated Artworks at the Louvre

Most visitors flock to the Mona Lisa, but the Louvre is so much more than da Vinci's moody muse. Make time for Ingres' Grande Odalisque, an 18th-century nude; the cheeky 16th-century Gabrielle d’Estrées and One of Her Sisters; and a Goya classic—The Countess del Carpio. You can even explore the ruins of the fortress upon which the Louvre is built.
