What to expect

Go beyond the obvious on our jam-packed Louvre Highlights Tour, peering behind the artworks to unlock their secrets. Skip long lines and join us on this short (but sweet) adventure into the heart of French art and history.

You’ll see famous French works like Géricault’s ‘Raft of Medusa’, which depicts the true story of shipwrecked sailors driven to cannibalism. Of course da Vinci’s ‘Mona Lisa’ will play a major role in your tour. You won’t believe how tiny the Louvre’s most famous artwork is, nor how many guests have tried to destroy her! At the sculpture gallery, you’ll encounter another Italian in Michelangelo’s ‘Slaves’; plus Anthony Canova’s incredibly romantic ‘Psyche Revived by Cupid’s Kiss’.

You’ll also get a sense for the other use of the Louvre, as a royal palace. With your guide on hand to point out the details, you’ll notice the beautiful ceiling panels and explore a special room filled with crown jewels.

Where

Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel 75001 Paris

Meeting point:
Statue next to the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel in front of the Louvre Museum (important: not the Arc de triomphe de l'Etoile, up the Champs Elysées Avenue). When facing the arc, meet at the winged statue on the left. Due to an ongoing renovation of the Arc du Carrousel, the meeting point may be a bit crowded. Your Walks coordinator will be waiting for you with a sign.
