Skip the ticket lines at the ever-popular Louvre Museum in Paris, and discover its highlights on a 2-hour tour with a guide, who focuses on the major works of art. See sculptures such as 'Venus de Milo' and the 'Winged Victory of Samothrace,' plus, of course, the most famous painting in all the world, 'Mona Lisa.' As you tour the museum, you'll hear stories about the art and artists, and then you can continue to explore on your own once the guided tour ends. Select a morning , afternoon or evening tour time when booking. Tour is limited to six people for a small-group experience.

Enjoy fast-track entry to Paris' most visited museum, Musée du Louvre, so you can go straight inside with your guide to see some of the most important pieces in the museum’s vast collection.

The Louvre opened to the public in 1793, having already been in use to display the royal collections since 1682. Now it's home to roughly 35,000 pieces of art, which is quite overwhelming, but you don't have to worry about finding your way around, as your guide shows you a selection of the best works, including Leonardo da Vinci’s legendary Mona Lisa and the statues Venus de Milo (120 BC) and Nike of Samothrace (190 BC).

You will also discover other Italian paintings, as well as French paintings such as The Coronation of Napoleon by Jacques-Louis David. According to your interests, your tour can be tailored to include pieces such as Dying Slave by Michelangelo, or perhaps see the Apollo Gallery (Galerie d'Apollon), home to the original crown of King Louis XV.

When your guided tour ends, you can stay at the Louvre to explore more on your own.
