Paris: Louvre Museum Private Guided Tour with Entry｜France

Meet your guide and head straight into the Louvre Museum, skipping the long lines. Follow your guide through the world’s largest museum, which was once a royal palace before becoming a museum in 1793.

Explore the museum’s vast galleries, which cover an area of 786,000 square feet and house the world’s largest collection of works of art, spanning more than 7,000 years, from ancient civilizations to the 19th century.

Discover the museum’s eight different departments: Egyptian Antiquities, Greek, Etruscan and Roman Antiquities, Near Eastern Antiquities, Islamic Art, Paintings, Sculptures, Decorative Arts, and Prints and Drawings.

Take time to explore these collections with your guide, who will show you some of the museum’s most famous works and tell you the stories behind them. Marvel at the Mona Lisa, painted by Leonardo da Vinci in 1506, one of the world’s most famous female portraits; the Venus de Milo, a famous Greek sculpture from 100 BC depicting the goddess Aphrodite; or the giant 33-foot-long painting of Napoleon’s coronation, painted in 1807 by Jacques-Louis David to commemorate Napoleon Bonaparte’s coronation in Notre Dame Cathedral.
