Descrição geral
Explore the Louvre Museum with Skip-the-Line Access
Immerse yourself in the art and history of the world's most visited museum, the Louvre, with this small-group tour featuring Skip-the-Line Access. Led by an expert guide, you'll have the opportunity to explore the best of the Louvre's extensive collection as well as discover some hidden gems. The Skip-the-Line Access ensures that you maximize your time inside, allowing you to skip the long entry lines.
Embark on a journey through time as you explore a collection spanning from Ancient Egyptian artifacts to Neoclassical masterpieces. While the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo are some of the museum's most famous attractions, they are only the beginning of what you'll encounter during the tour.
Begin your exploration with the Great Sphinx of Tanis, an ancient Egyptian relic dating back 4,000 years. From there, move on to the Louvre's Greek and Roman antiquities, including stunning pieces such as the Nike of Samothrace and the Venus de Milo. Your guide will help you discover subtle details that you might have otherwise overlooked.
Continue on to the Italian Renaissance section and get up close to the enigmatic masterpiece, the Mona Lisa. Your guide will provide captivating commentary on the history of this iconic painting, various interpretations, and the techniques Leonardo da Vinci used to create the enigmatic smile that has fascinated art lovers for centuries. Additionally, you'll have the opportunity to see other important works by Da Vinci and Raphael, as well as lesser-known gems, providing a comprehensive view of this influential period in art history.
Delve into the golden age of French Romanticism with a visit to masterful allegories depicted in Delacroix's 'Liberty Leading the People' and Géricault's 'Raft of the Medusa.’ Your guide will explain that the latter does not depict the French Revolution but an uprising against the restoration of the monarchy in 1830, and the distant message of hope concealed in the horizon.
During the tour, you'll also encounter Michelangelo's 'Dying Slave' and Antonio Canova's sculpture 'Psyche Revived by Cupid's Kiss.’ In the Apollo Gallery, you'll catch a rare glimpse of what the Louvre's interior looked like before it became a museum in 1793 and get a chance to see the Crown Jewel collection. This tour offers a unique opportunity to explore the Louvre's impressive collection without the usual crowds, providing an experience that may not be easily replicated
