By booking this 2-hour privately guided tour of the Louvre, you can avoid the overwhelming notion of exploring the enormous museum on your own and enjoy insight about the art, particularly the Italian art, with a personal guide.
The size of the Louvre museum are such that inspire awe. The largest museum in the world extends for 700 m along the Seine: a labyrinth of rooms. More than 35,000 artworks, it would take nine months to be able to view them all at once!
How to avoid the risk of wasting your ticket, spending hours and hours to wander the corridors exhausted without even being able, finally, to see the Mona Lisa? Don't panic and let yourself be driven by one of our tour guide.
We offer you an itinerary particularly 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 are always undisputed protagonists of our paths.

At the louvre with children
Luca, our guide was fantastic. We were looking for a guided tour in Italian of the louvre for our children and Luca di Napoleone tour led us to discover the most important Italian paintings and the most beautiful Greek statues of the louvre with a lot of competence and a lot of sympathy. Our children loved Leonardo da Vinci's paintings and the mysterious stories they hide... they were guided to discover the monnalisa always finding an answer to their countless questions. They had unparalleled descriptions of the milo venere and the samothrace nike. Thanks Luca and thanks to Napoleon Tour... highly recommended guides in Italian in Paris!

Ideal for families with children who would otherwise get bored
Punctuality, precision, comfort (entrance reserved for groups, no lines, the guide led us to the wardrobe to be more comfortable), competence, of course the 2 hours are simplistic compared to everything there is to see, but we were with the children and in this way they were interested.
Really to recommend!

Discovering the Louvre with Luca!
Together with my husband and my 10-year-old daughter, I took a guided tour of the Louvre Museum with Luca. The experience was great. In a relatively short time, Luca was able to give us information about the history of the palace and the museum and the main Italian works exhibited here. But above all he was excellent in providing us with food for thought about artists and works and in "tickling" our curiosity (and I emphasize in particular that of my daughter) in wanting to discover works not included in the driving path.

Friendliness and Professionalism: a guarantee in this experience!
To visit such an immense museum in a short time it is essential to do so efficiently. Maurizio is a very knowledgeable guide and the visit was very interesting and pleasant, also thanks to the way to tell stories and anecdotes in a very engaging way. Beautiful experience that we highly recommend to everyone!

2-hour guided tour of the Louvre to discover Italian masterpieces
The visit to the Louvre was exciting thanks to the professionalism of the guide Maurizio who was able to tell with great emphasis and involvement interesting stories even for children aged 4 and 7. The whole visit was to our extreme pleasure and Napoleon tour gave us a fantastic day above our expectations given the age of the children. Thanks Napoleon tour and thanks to Maurizio with his engaging stories! SUPER recommended! We'll be back!

Great tour
We greatly enjoyed our Louvre Italian Art Tour. Maurizio had amazing knowledge of the artists and their works. We found his description of the artists personalities and how those personalities related to their art work to be interesting. Maurizio was engaging, entertaining and had a wealth of knowledge. We highly recommend this tour.

Paris Highlight
Maurizio is the highlight of our annual trip to Paris. He has proved an engaging, funny, and ever-informative guide no matter if he’s leading us through historic neighborhoods, churches or museums, and this year’s tour of the Italian wing of the Louvre was no exception! His endless pride for his home country of Italy shone through as he drew our attention to the works of the old masters—and their lesser-known teachers—and provided thorough backstories for misattributed busts, Napoleon-appropriated artworks, and even an attempted theft of the Mona Lisa. I cannot recommend Maurizio highly enough: his endless knowledge aside (if you can believe it!) he is incredibly personable and passionate about what he does. We always feel like another little piece of Paris has been revealed to us after a tour with Maurizio!

One of my favorites places!
I love The Louvre. I go every chance I get & I always come across something I hadn't seen before. I always run out of time and have to cut my visit short but I'm an art historian, so I tend to get carried away.
