Discontinued: Skip the Line Louvre Ticket with Audio Guide

Experience the Skip the Line Louvre Ticket with Audio Guide. 

Make the most of your time and explore the world's largest museum at your own pace with our Skip the Line Louvre Ticket option with Audio Guide. Avoid waiting in line for hours and pick up your ticket and GuidePen at a location right next to the Louvre.

With your easy to use GuidePen (available in English and Spanish) and interactive map, navigate the grand hallways of the Louvre at your desired pace, learning not only about the highlights of the fantastic pieces of art but the history of the palace itself. Some key pieces of art you'll see in the Louvre's permanent collection include the Venus de Milo, sculptures by Michelangelo, paintings by Raphael, Delacroix, Vermeer, Caravaggio, and of course da Vinci's Mona Lisa. 

This ticket is the easiest and fastest way to visit the Louvre on your own without wasting time standing in multiple lines or following a group once inside, all while experiencing everything the Louvre has to offer. 

Please note that you will have 4.5 hours to return the audio guide to the pick up location (a 5 minute walk from the Louvre). Your Skip the Line ticket is valid all day, so you may return to the museum if you wish to visit longer than 4.5 hours.
