Make the most of your time at the world's largest museum with our Skip the Line Louvre Tour. While everyone outside waits in the hours-long line, we will go straight to security and make our way inside.
Alongside your expert guide, you will navigate the grand hallways of the Louvre with ease, learning not only about the magnificent pieces of art, but the history of the palace itself. You'll understand that as a royal palace, the Louvre used to be the sprawling home to the first family of France. You'll explore the key pieces of the Louvre including works by Michelangelo, Canova, Géricault and much more. Of course we will visit da Vinci's 'Mona Lisa' and learn the fascinating history behind this famous painting.
This tour provides you with the ultimate highlights of the Louvre for those who don't want to waste your time standing in a line or navigating through a museum that can be intimidating and potentially overwhelming on your own. Led by an expert, English-speaking guide, you'll see the highlights of this famed museum and hear entertaining stories behind the artists and their works, bringing the paintings and sculptures to life.
Please ensure that all members of your party have a valid ID on them on the day of the visit. This is particularly important for guests who have qualified for child reduction.
