The Louvre is the home of the lady with the mystic smile and so many works both famous and lesser known. Our cultivated itinerary will help you streamline your visit and have fun viewing the classics through a pop culture lens.
You’ll meet your guide outside close to the famous Louvre Pyramid where your tour begins with a short walk that is complete with information and fun stories to give you a deeper understanding of the famous museum you are soon to visit. Your 45 minute outdoor portion of your visit will begin at the foot of the Axe Historique, where you can see everything in a straight line from the Louvre Museum, through the Tuileries Gardens, past the Place de la Concorde, along the Champs Elysees and up to the iconic Arc de Triomphe. Your guide will share fascinating tales of The Supremes and the Beatles on the Champs Elysees, Emily in Paris in the Tuileries Gardens where she jogged every morning, Place de la Concorde where Anne Hathaway as Andy Sachs famously tosses her phone in a fountain in the climactic scene from Devil Wears Prada. Next you will turn around and marvel at the famous Pyramid and learn about its scandalous beginnings and its links to pop culture today in films such as Wonder Woman, Bourne Identity and especially The Da Vinci Code with its conspiracy theories that are centered around this controversial monument.
Insiders know that 3 hours is about the maximum time one should spend in the Louvre at one visit because anything more becomes “sensory overload”. Your ticket is timed so you enter when the crowds are at the lowest and with over 3 hours to enjoy the works. Your guide will give you your tickets and share with you your one of a kind specially curated itinerary to be sure you make celebrity sightings of works featured in videos and film.
It’s a unique way to visit the Louvre Museum to make the most of your time and your money and best of all have loads of fun!
