Itinerary
Your family tour starts outside the Louvre, where you'll meet your private guide and learn something about the history and the architecture of this huge building.
You'll enter the museum with prebooked tickets. The Louvre truly has something for everyone in the family, and your guide keeps the kids enthralled with interesting facts about the history of the museum and its works of art, for instance, the fact that the Louvre was built in the 12th century and was originally a fortress and palace. With your guide leading the way, see the works of major artists like Géricault, Canova, Delacroix, Bernini, Michelangelo, Ingres, and Ghirlandaio. Perhaps you'll also see the Crown Jewels or the Napoleon III Apartments, depending on your interests and availability of masterpieces. Of course, you probably won't want to miss Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, as well as other famed masterpieces such as the Winged Victory of Samothrace and Venus de Milo. You can decide if you want to go for a 2 hour or a 3 hour tour, depending on the needs of your kids, and what you see can be tailored to your preferences and the ages of your children.

Traveler reviews
We had such a wonderful...
We had such a wonderful tour with Helene! She did such a great job of engaging our 13 year olds even though they were very jetlagged. She was full of energy and made the tour so fun for all of us. This is a great way to show your kids the Louvre. The skip the line perk was HUGE especially during a very busy spring break week.
Amazing Tour Suited for Children
We had a wonderful 3 hour tour with Tatiana and it was incredible. We had 2 children with us and she really engaged with them and we all learned so much from her. A fabulous way to introduce children to the Louvre.
Great family oriented tour
Tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable and directed the tour to the interests of our grand daughter.
Wonderful family tour!
Had a wonderful experience on this tour with our patient, helpful and very kind guide Anna. Anna did an incredible job engaging my 8 year old and 5 year old -- she explained the exhibits clearly and succinctly, and had wonderful activities related to the art pieces that my children loved. She helped us navigate the crowds in the Louvre and taught both the children and adults a ton about everything that we saw. Would highly recommend this tour and Anna - so grateful that we had her as our guide!
Louvre Tour for a Seven Year Old.
Our tour guide, Joanna, was amazing. She explained the art on a level my daughter could understand and spoke in a way that kept her (and us) engaged for the full 3 hours
