Itinerary
Meet your guide beside the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, just steps from the Louvre. Get an introduction to the museum’s royal past, the route ahead, and the masterpieces you are about to discover.
Stand before the Mona Lisa as your guide explains Leonardo’s techniques, the mystery behind her expression, and the story that made the painting world-famous.
See the Venus de Milo up close and admire the balance and detail of this ancient Greek sculpture. Your guide explains its origins, the mystery of the missing arms, and the theories about how the statue may once have been posed.
See the Winged Victory at the top of the grand Daru staircase, one of the Louvre’s most striking displays. Your guide explains how the sculptor used drapery, posture, and form to create the impression of movement and wind in marble.
Continue through selected galleries to discover more masterpieces, overlooked details, and the stories behind them. After the guided tour, stay inside the Louvre and continue exploring at your own pace.

About Paris
Paris pairs grand boulevards and riverside monuments with café terraces, art collections of global stature and neighbourhoods that feel like villages.
The Seine runs through the heart of the city, past the Île de la Cité with Notre-Dame and the Sainte-Chapelle, the long façade of the Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay in its former railway station. Downriver, the Eiffel Tower rises over the Champ de Mars, and the Arc de Triomphe crowns the Champs-Élysées.
