You’ll be party to much more in-depth info about the Louvre’s masterpieces than the small info panels can provide, and take away a free guidebook packed with tips for exploring Paris. Self-guided visitors also receive an audio guide to enhance their experience.

Traveling while 🤎 in Paris

Alina_L, Aug 2025
Probably the best ‘bang for your buck’ deal. The food at the Hyatt restaurant across the Louve was immaculate. Everyone treated us with kindness and was eager to help us with our breakfast choices. We thought that because we were 🤎, we would get treated differently, but the complete opposite. We tried our best to speak French and I believe the effort made a difference.

Interesting start to louvre.

Interesting walk and history of main area and bridges. Guide Yemisi was engaging and very knowledgeable. Kept us moving and pointed out interesting side points. It was great that she guided us to entrance and made sure we had tickets to get into louvre.

We were late for the...

ManYee_L, Aug 2023
We were late for the guided tour. But the tour guide gave us the Louvre entrance tickets the day before the visit so that we could simply enter the palace with the ticket. The guide was very kind that she reminded us to enter the palace on time.

visite avant le Louvre

Marie_L, Jan 2024
Très chouette mais un peu trop long par rapport à ce qui était annoncé. La visite a duré une heure alors qu'il était annoncé 40 minutes. Sous la pluie et dans le froid, cela a fatigué ma fille. J'aurais aimé plus d' infos historiques sur la Joconde. Par exemple qu'elle est exposée au Louvre car elle a été achetée par le Roi François I ( j'ai trouvé cette info moi même). Sinon, le guide était très jovial et avait beaucoup d'humour.

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Bonjour. Merci pour votre commentaire. Nous apprécions le fait que vous ayez apprécié la visite et que vous ayez trouvé le guide de bonne compagnie. La visite à pied dure généralement 40 minutes. Si elle s'est prolongée au-delà de cette durée, c'est probablement en raison d'un retard ou de l'arrivée tardive d'autres clients. Toutefois, nous tiendrons compte de tous vos commentaires et observations afin d'améliorer les prochaines visites. Hello. Thank you for your review. We appreciate that you enjoyed the tour and found the guide to be great company. The walking tour is typically for about 40 minutes. If it extended beyond this time, it was likely due to a delay or other guests arriving late. However, we will take all your comments and observations into consideration to help improve future tours.
