Great
We had an excellent experience with our guide Jonny. Despite the Louvre being extremely busy that day, Jonny deftly lead us through the crowds and directed us to the best spots to view the pieces featured during our tour. Jonny provided interesting and entertaining commentary that held the attention of myself and my children (ages 23 and 19) throughout the tour, providing just enough information to keep us engaged and not overwhelmed.

Our highlights of the Louvre tour was amazing, our tour guide Hugo was incredible, his knowledge and explanations of everything were fascinating. My only recommendation is dress for it being warm inside...it was very hot walking around and going up and down all the staircases.

A good level of mobility is required and wearing comfortable shoes is recommended. However, we are committed to providing an enjoyable experience for all guests. Please contact our Guest Experience Team to discuss arranging a private tour that meets your accessibility needs.
What can I bring inside the Louvre Museums?
Please note that the Louvre will not allow large items inside the museum, so you should bring only a small daypack or handbag. More specifically, only bags smaller than 21.5 in x 13.5 in x 7.5 in (55 cm x 35 cm x 20) cm are permitted. Suitcases and large bags must be left outside. Closed, clear bottles of water are allowed inside the Louvre however food is forbidden inside the site. Please be advised that the use of selfie sticks and flash photography is not allowed inside the Louvre. Additional security checks may cause longer waits at unavoidable security lines at times.
Do I need to bring an ID with me on this tour?
Yes! Please ensure that all members of your party, including children, have a valid ID on them on the day of the visit.
Can you guarantee that I will see every room in the Louvre listed here?
We can't guarantee it, but it's very likely. As with all museums, particular galleries of the Louvre may be closed without prior notice, or pieces may be removed for restoration or loan. In this case, your guide will make an appropriate substitution. However, as the pieces and the rooms we visit on our tour are the most important in the museum, these are the ones least likely to close or leave on loan.
