With over 30,000 works on display, it’s easy to drift directionless from room to room in the vast Louvre. Let your private guide, a licensed art expert, turn your visit into a focused, meaningful journey, bringing clarity to key works and sharing the context behind them.

 

You’ll head back in time to when the Louvre was a fortress as you walk in the shadows of the medieval foundations. Come face to face with the Great Sphinx of Tanis and the Venus de Milo, and learn the secrets of Mona Lisa’s smile and the $74 million Regent Diamond

 

As you pass thousands of priceless paintings, sculptures, and artifacts spanning centuries, your guide brings both world-famous treasures and lesser-known works to life with sharp insight and vivid storytelling. You’ll learn about art, yes, but also the people (and sometimes drama) behind the masterpieces. Your expert guide can curate this experience to suit your interests and pace — just let them know what moves you. The Louvre has a way of dazzling with its grandeur. This private experience makes it personal.

Testimonials

Our guide was an amazing art historian that pointed out relevant art while providing the story behind each piece. It really brought everything to life. Her stories behind important art vs famous art was so intriguing.
— Kasey
Private tour suitable for children of all ages. We were with our 8-year-old daughter and 78-year-old grandma, and we really enjoyed it. Julian took great care of us from start to finish and was able to inspire us with his knowledge.
