With a collection of over 35,000 works on display, Paris’ Louvre is the largest, most influential, and most visited art museum in the world. Although it’s impossible to do the Louvre justice in just one day, our Louvre Tour will grant you intimate access to all of the highlights. From marvelous Greek sculptures like Venus de Milo to dramatic Delacroix paintings, your guide will take you to all of the Louvre’s most inspiring masterpieces. And all in a safe, intimate and TRULY small group of MAX 6 people.

Your tour will take you to all of the most iconic paintings and sculptures housed in two of this massive museum's three wings. To help you make the most out of your visit, your guide will highlight the most influential works from a wide range of periods including Ancient Greece, Ancient Egypt, the Renaissance, Neoclassicism and Romanticism. In addition to learning about the different artists and artworks, you will also hear how this 12th-century fortress and palace eventually became France's greatest museum.

In the Ancient Egypt collections, take a close look at the sleek granite Great Sphinx of Tanis. Discovered in an Egyptian temple in the 1800s, this sphinx is considered to be the biggest and best-preserved in any Western museum.

After visiting Egypt, it's time to explore two of Ancient Greece's globally recognizable sculptures - the armless Venus de Milo and the headless Winged Victory of Samothrace. Although both of the goddesses are missing a few parts, they are universally considered some of the best-surviving original Hellenistic sculptures. Just a short walk from Venus de Milo you will get a chance to see some impressive Italian sculptures including Michelangelo's powerful Rebellious Slave & Dying Slave as well as Canova's passionate Cupid & Psyche.

Before beholding Da Vinci's Mona Lisa, you will take a tour of some of the Louvre's other eye-catching canvasses. This portion of the tour will include stops by Paolo Veronese's Wedding Feast of Cana, JacquesLouis David's Coronation of Napoleon, and icons of French Romanticism like Delacroix's Liberty Leading the People and Théodore Géricault's Raft of Medusa.

HIGHLIGHT: Da Vinci's Mona Lisa remains the most popular and enigmatic work. Supposedly the portrait of a 16th-century Italian noblewoman, this painting has bewitched billions over the years and inspired countless songs, films, and novels.
