This guided tour offers the perfect opportunity to learn about the museum's huge collection and its greatest works of art, such as the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo, and the Coronation of Napoleon. Before it became a museum in 1793, the Louvre had long been one of the principle palaces of the Kings of France. Located right in the heart of Paris, the Louvre's galleries stretch for 786,000 square feet. It is home to the world's largest collection of art works, spanning more than 7,000 years from ancient civilizations to the 19th Century. The museum's collections are split into eight different departments: Egyptian antiquities, Greek, Etruscan & Roman antiquities, Near Eastern antiquities, Islamic art, Paintings, Sculptures, Decorative Arts, and Prints & Drawings. Spend time discovering these collections with your guide, who will show you some of the museum's most famous works and tell you about the stories that lie behind them.

After your guided tour, spend time exploring other parts of the museum at your own pace.

Ideal combo tour to visit two of the biggest attractions in the Paris region. You will enjoy a visit to Claude Monet’s magnificent gardens in Giverny as well as the house of the master of Impressionism. After a traditional lunch, you will leave to visit the famous Palace of Versailles, which will take you back into the history of the Kings of France. Set off at 8:15 am from our agency in Central Paris. The journey to Giverny by air-conditioned coach will take approximately one hour and 30 minutes. Soak up the world of the painter, Claude Monet, famous for painting different corners of his garden, such as the “Water Lilies” or the “Japanese Bridge.” The painter Claude Monet lived at Giverny with his wife and eight children for 43 years, from 1883 until his death in 1926. Passionate about gardening and nature’s changing colors, he designed his flower and water gardens as if they were works of art. During your visit of Monet’s garden at Giverny, admire the multicolored flower beds, the Clos Normand Flower Garden with its many Eastern plants, and the lush water garden, famous for its water lilies and Japanese bridge. Then take advantage of your free time to visit Claude Monet’s pink-plastered house, where he lived and worked (guided tours of the interior are not permitted due to the lack of space). Explore the reading room, leading into the larder and the artist’s studio. In addition to those of his private apartments, these rooms have been reconstructed with Monet’s original furniture. Visit the bright yellow dining room, which has been reconstructed down to the very last detail, with earthenware dishes and a blue-tiled kitchen. In the dining room, marvel at one of the world’s most important collections of Japanese prints. At the end of your visit, explore the village and treat yourself to some souvenir shopping in the gift and book shop, which was once used as a studio for Monet’s Water Lilies; it offers a wide range of products inspired by the artist’s work. After visiting Giverny, enjoy a tasty lunch at the Moulin de Fourges restaurant (or 2 steps away at the Bistrot du Moulin ) just ten minutes away, where you can sample local food with a twist. In the afternoon, explore the Palace and Gardens of Versailles. Covering more than 721,000 square feet, the Palace has over 700 rooms.
