Musée du Louvre

3.5 km•1er, Palais Royal/Musée du Louvre

April 23, 2026 we visited the Louvre. Tried buying tickets online, but could not get any morning…read moretickets one week in advance. They do not take American Express credit cards. Finally signed up with Tiquets for a tour for two with accompanied guide for $164.73 double the normal entrance fee. Unlike Versailles Palace, the Louvre is right in the center of Paris, and easy to get to by metro subway. The Louvre is 22 euros for EEC country residents, and 32 euros for everyone else. Children under 12 are free. If you buy a discounted ticket or are a child, you must show your passport at the entrance to prove eligibility. Although the Louvre is a huge museum, the portion we were interested in was quite small, 18th and 19th century impressionist and historic paintings. We accompanied our tour guide at 10am, and were finished by 2pm, including having lunch. We saw The Winged Victory statue, and the Mona Lisa by Leonardo Devinci, surrounded by rope barriers and guards, keeping people 15 feet away. Only thing missing was bullet proof glass barriers. Loved the paintings of the French revolution, and paintings of Napoleon and his foes, including British sailing warships, in addition to the impressionist paintings. If you are into impressionist paintings the Museum Orsay might be a better choice. Crowds not too bad on a weekday morning, but forget about coming here on an afternoon, unless it is just before closing time.

If you visit this massive museum, bring a teen with you and let them help you navigate it! I would…read morehave never found the Mona Lisa without my teen daughter lol. Allow yourself time to visit here. Wear comfy shoes because it's super huge. Lots of tourists everywhere. I would recommend a tour guide to help get around if you don't have a teenager. Great souvenir shops. Outside they line you up by ticket start time and you will not get in any earlier than what you were slotted for. If it's summer, bring a hat or umbrella to shield you from the sun. Perfect morning well spent.
