DATE SCHEDULE PEOPLE Total price Book

Full description Experience the magic of the Louvre Museum in a quieter, more intimate atmosphere with this exclusive Louvre at closing time tour. As the museum winds down for the day, step inside with your expert art historian guide and explore its most iconic masterpieces away from the daytime crowds.

Begin your journey through art history at the Louvre’s medieval foundations before marveling at Classical Greek sculptures, including the graceful Venus de Milo and the powerful Winged Victory of Samothrace. Admire the emotion captured in Cupid & Psyche, the tension in Michelangelo's Slaves, and the drama of Delacroix’s Liberty Leading the People, a stirring symbol of French revolution and resilience.

Continue through the Italian Renaissance galleries to view works by Caravaggio, Raphael, and of course, Leonardo da Vinci. Discover the haunting intensity of Géricault’s The Raft of Medusa and step into a dazzling gallery showcasing the French Crown Jewels.

The highlight of your visit comes at the end: an unhurried encounter with the world’s most famous painting, the Mona Lisa. In the peaceful setting of the nearly empty Salle des États, stand face to face with her mysterious smile and take in every brushstroke without the distraction of crowds. This exclusive moment offers a rare opportunity to appreciate the Mona Lisa at the Louvre in near solitude.

This carefully timed Louvre evening tour offers an unparalleled way to explore one of the world’s greatest museums. With priority access, expert insights, and fewer visitors, it’s the ideal experience for art lovers seeking a deeper connection to the Louvre’s legendary works.
