Louvre Highlights Tour

On this three-hour tour, you'll join an art historian for an insider's view of the most-visited collection of artworks in the world. Starting outside of the museum, we'll learn about its transformation over five centuries from an immense medieval fortress to a magnificent royal palace to the museum we know today. 

From there, we'll explore the Classical Antiquities wing, the grand galleries of Italian painting, and the French Masters, including masterpieces by Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Veronese. 

Our art historian will curate our visit, selecting a mixture of famous and lesser-known works and crafting a narrative around our interests and questions. Of course, if you're willing to wait in the queue this tour also includes the famous Mona Lisa and the mysteries behind her smile.

Have You Met Marie?

Leading Context Tours since 2010

As we walked by the old walls of Paris, down the center of the Tuileries, and in the elegant Palais Royal gardens Marie pointed out the extraordinary effect and beautiful results of Haussmann’s work on the city. Galleries and passages, narrow streets and wide boulevards - we’ll see all differently now. A history lesson, a lovely walk, enlightening stories, and a brilliant guide. Can’t imagine any trip to Paris without the pleasure of at least one Context tour. Thanks!  - Patricia, November 2022
