Stop At: Louvre Museum, 99 rue de Rivoli, 75001 Paris France

Enjoy skip-the-line entry to the world's largest museum, where you'll meet up with your art historian guide and small group for a 3-hour tour of the Louvre's most significant works (and a few hidden gems). Begin with the medieval foundations of this ancient royal residence, and then gaze at the graceful Venus de Milo. From here you'll have a chance to admire one of the Louvre’s most celebrated sculptures, Winged Victory of Samothrace.

Continue on to the Apollo Gallery, which houses the ornate royal crowns of Napoleon and King Louis XV, and be riveted by the valiant tales of these inimitable leaders. Stand in awe as you enter each new wing and gaze upon some of the world’s most monumental masterpieces.

Marvel at love set in stone in Canova’s Psyche and Cupid and see Delacroix’s famous painting depicting the French struggle for freedom, Liberty Leading the People. Michelangelo's work awaits you in the Italian sculpture hall, and you will discover firsthand what makes Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa the most enigmatic portrait of all time.
• Please note that the Apollo Gallery is closed until the end of December 2019, this means that the Crown Jewel collection won't be visible until then. Your guide will make sure to include other highlights to the itinerary.
