Itinerary

  • Louvre Museum

    Mona Lisa is a popular lady, so don't miss the chance to get close to her without the crowds. On this last-entry Louvre tour, explore the museum's essential sections with an expert guide, and then experience the beauty of the world-famous painting in peace right as the doors are closing. Accompanied by your expert guide, discover the palace's foundations at the moat, and then wander among the collection of Classical Greek statues to find the mysterious Venus de Milo and the triumphant Winged Victory of Samothrace. Study the masterpieces of Caravaggio, Raphael, and da Vinci, admire the Romantic finesse of Géricault's The Raft of Medusa, and venture inside a room sparkling with Crown Jewels. Make your way to the Mona Lisa Room and enjoy the freedom to get as close to the small but monumental painting as you like, soaking up the beauty of the lady's ambiguous and endlessly analyzed expression.

The only way to do the Louvre

Published on Jan, 2025

I cannot recommend this tour enough. I recently went with my 12 year old son and we LOVED everything about the tour. The Louvre is huge and can be busy but the combination of going at the end of the day, and our incredible and knowledgable guide Simon, meant we avoided the crowds, saw all the good stuff and had a great time. But most of the experience was down to Simon who was amazing. How he knows as much as he does is a mystery to me but it was enough to keep both me and my 12 year old son rivetted for 3 hours. Thanks Simon!

Insightful, fun fact sharing experience.
