Itinerary
Musee d'Orsay
Paris’ other must-see museum, the Musée d’Orsay, is the perfect complement to the Louvre. This family-friendly private tour lets you explore the museum’s stunning Beaux-Arts architecture with a dedicated guide and skip-the-line admission. Inside, journey through the artistic movements that led to Impressionism and its vibrant masterpieces. Discover Manet’s Luncheon on the Grass and Renoir’s Dance at Le Moulin de la Galette. Learn about artists who influenced the Impressionists, like Millet with The Gleaners, and those who followed, such as Van Gogh with his Bedroom in Arles. Of course, no visit is complete without seeing works by Claude Monet, the father of Impressionism, including his famous Poppies. Your guide will bring the stories behind the paintings to life, making art history engaging for all ages. By the end of your tour, you’ll have explored both famous highlights and hidden gems while admiring the museum’s breathtaking architecture.
