Paris: Louvre Museum Semi Private Tour
Description
The Louvre holds over 380,000 works across 72,000 square metres. Left alone, most visitors wander in circles, spend 45 seconds in front of the Mona Lisa and leave feeling vaguely overwhelmed. That's not what Paris Unscripted does. With a maximum of 6 guests, this is as close to a private tour as you can get without paying private tour prices. Your expert licensed guide, fluent in the museum's history, art and hidden corners - will take you on a curated journey through the ancient civilisations, Renaissance masterpieces and French royal collections that make the Louvre unlike anywhere else on earth. A small, intimate group means you'll hear every word, ask every question and leave with genuine understanding and not just photographs.

The tour guide is very knowledgeable and this tour hits the highlights of the famous paintings and sculptures in the Louvre. I learned how to look at paintings in a different manner. I am glad to have seen the Mona Lisa. Our family does not have an extensive art background and this tour was plenty. Very well organized. Professional tour guide. Only 5 of us.
Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We're delighted the tour helped you see the artwork in a new way, and that seeing the Mona Lisa was a highlight for your family. We're glad the small group size and pacing worked so well for you. Hope to welcome you back to Paris again!
We met at the statue Uncle Sam’s Tours: Anisse was our guide. A small group of 5, Anisse Zemman led us to the entrance with an easy informative demeanour. We enjoyed the time we spent with our guide at the Louvre. We have been to the Louvre many times over the last 30 years, but Anisse made it all feel fresh with information and enthusiasm.
Great trip we had in Paris. Our family enjoyed a lot and our tour guide was great.
