Louvre Museum Private 2-h Tour on Italian Art and masterpieces

By booking this 2-hour privately guided tour of the Louvre, you avoid the challenge of navigating the vast museum alone and gain detailed insight into the art, especially Italian pieces, from a personal guide. The Louvre’s size commands attention. The largest museum in the world stretches 700 m along the Seine, forming a maze of rooms. It holds more than 35,000 artworks; viewing them all would take nine months. How can you prevent wasting your ticket and spending hours wandering the corridors exhausted, unable to see the Mona Lisa? Follow one of our tour guides. We offer an itinerary focused on the Italian and French great masters: Canova, Michelangelo, Cimabue, Giotto, Veronese, Géricault, Ingres, David. The Venus of Milo, the Nike of Samothrace, and, of course, the Mona Lisa remain central to our routes.

Skip-the-Line Rodin Tour with Artist

Hailed as the Michelangelo of modern sculpture, Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) undeniably revolutionized this ancient medium. Through his modeling of clay and ardent experiments with the human form, Rodin captured the deepest passions while simultaneously reflecting on the fragility of existence. On the tour, you will experience Rodin’s studio process through the eyes of an artist. Your artist-guide will provide unique insight into the sculptor's diverse techniques in a manner understandable for all audiences. It would be an absolute delight to explore with you how the twisted, dancing limbs; the monumental, immersive enlargements; the bursting blocks of raw stone and polished skin; the entangled, sinuous bodies; the singular mind and powerful hand of Rodin transformed the art of sculpture into living flesh, sublime movement, pure expression.
