Additional Information

With a restriction of only six participants per tour, this ensures a nearly individualized adventure! This guide aims to address queries that other tours commonly overlook. Ever pondered about the minimalistic genital details in Greek and Roman sculptures or what led to Mona Lisa’s significant fame? Art has always been a medium to challenge societal norms and is often linked with sex, controversies, and the complex ties that artists have, no subject is too taboo and it’s a chance to ask those questions you may have deemed too sensitive beforehand. There’s an endless catalogue of art pieces at the Louvre, and with that volume, drama is inevitable! Do be aware, this tour is strictly for those above the age of eighteen; unless you’d like us to grant an exception, please get in touch.

  • Minimum age is 18 years
  • Not wheelchair accessible on group tours
  • Strollers or pushchairs cannot be accepted on group tours
  • Large backpacks and luggage are not allowed in the Louvre
Location
Place du Carrousel

Murder, mayhem, and matrimony. And murder. - I can’t say enough positive things about my experience being guided through the Louvre by Adam. My wife purchased this as a birthday gift and what is explained on the surface compared to what is delivered is an absolutely amazing value. If you’re visiting the Louvre for your first or your fiftieth time you will quickly understand the size and the scope of what your day is about to undertake. There is clearly an impossible amount of exhibits to explore and not enough time in an afternoon for someone new to the museum to even grapple with what they need to be seeing. Adam brings to life not only exhibits in the museum with wonderful background and interaction, but the museum walls (and ceilings) themselves. The tour is exciting and interactive! Rather than just be carted to famous works (which happens and is lovely) and lectured on the importance of the pieces, you receive an outstanding history and context of how pieces relate to one another, how art and sculpture have evolved over time, and the human nature of everything explored. There are scandals for certain, but there is also the beautiful exploration of humanity and the reaction to the conditions imparted by the world on the creators of these pieces. This is history paced and masterfully explained with the popcorn value of an HBO or NetFlix masterpiece. If you’re looking for an incredible value of not only a guided experience but fulfillment of your time then this is what you need to book for your trip. I can’t possibly imagine a better way to spend several hours at the Louvre and without hesitation would book another tour from this (Adam) company. Additional benefits from the already fantastic tour include having a earpiece so that even if you get a bit distracted you’re still hearing what is being said. The Louvre is breathtaking as well and incredibly busy and having a direct audio line to the guide was very helpful. Whether you have an entire day to kill or just a couple of hours this is something that should be experienced. The tour is informative, breathtaking, emotional, and will leave you with an exciting understanding of the world, art, and history that you more than likely didn’t have before. Also, it’s fun! It’s really, very fun! I wish Adam and his team the best wishes moving forward and have a dedicated pin in my future travel plans to tour the Louvre with him again.

Wonderful! - Violette’s expertise truly enhanced our visit to Paris. She is witty, articulate and, above all, knowledgeable about the subject at hand. I thoroughly enjoyed the 4 tours we booked with Violette; I highly recommend her.
