Enjoy a private evening tour of the Louvre when the crowds thin out and the museum takes on a magical atmosphere. On Wednesdays and Fridays, the Louvre stays open until nighttime, offering a unique chance to explore its treasures without the daytime rush. At Dayin, a Paris-based company born from our love of Paris and its museums, we’ve been exploring the Louvre since childhood and have always loved the soft evening lighting that enhances the beauty of its galleries. Our guides are in the museum daily and know how to easily navigate the crowds and showcase the must-sees like the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, and Victory of Samothrace. This private tour is carefully planned, ensuring a relaxed and engaging visit at your own pace. With pre-reserved tickets, no need to print or download anything—just arrive and enjoy a stress-free Louvre night tour!

I can't imagine trying to navigate the Louvre without an expert guide. Dayin' Paris' guide, Justine, was phenomenal and made our experience something my family and I will never forget. I highly recommend this tour and would do any tour offered by Dayin' Paris!
Great tour with Monty. Two hour, night tour is the best way to see the Louvre. Much smaller crowds, then a dinner afterwards!
We really enjoyed our private tour with Justine. We had our 12 year old daughter with us and Justine did a great job customize our tour to make it entertaining for her. The evening time tour was also great as the museum was not very crowded and allowed us to see a lot of different sections. This is the best way to see this large museum
Night tour of the Louvre Beautiful time to see the Louvre, no queuing and less crowded. Great information and history about the Louvre itself. Our guide Monty concentrated on a number of highlights giving in depth information with plenty of time to stop and admire the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo. Definitely a superb way to experience this Paris must see.
Monty was a great tour guide and helpful with all the department of the louve.Hes very respectful and great person who showed us the best parts of the louve. Best guide would take again!
A lovely guide who kept our kids (and us) so engaged. Brilliant going in the evening. No wait times for anything! Highly recommend this tour.
This was a great introduction to the Louvre. Wei made it really fun and interesting. We saw all the highlights in a short amount of time. Go in the evening. Highly recommend! Book this tour!!!
Sabine is a wonderful guide! She met us on time and was ready to go! She made sure to ask us our interests and to cater the tour to our (very specific!) needs! Would love to go again!
We had such a great time with Monty! He was super friendly, really good with the kids, and made the whole experience fun and interesting. The late evening private tour of the Louvre was amazing, way less crowded and so beautiful at night. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip!
We visited the Louvre for the first time as a family of five, and thank goodness we did a private tour (Wednesday evening) because the museum is incredibly large. In two hours we saw so much! Monty was an excellent tour guide! He told us a lot about the Louvre and the history of France, including the Napoleons, the Kings, and the French Revolution. He knew where all the highlights were that we wanted to see. Monty took lots of pictures of us, and he is a very pleasant person. The whole family from ages 11 to 68 had an excellent time. So glad we took this tour!
