Editor's take
In 2 hours, Walks introduces the Mona Lisa, Michelangelo's Slaves and Winged Victory with commentary in English. You share the guide with a group of up to 20, using the included headset. Use it as an introduction if your plans leave only part of the day for the Louvre.
That 2-hour option is separate from the 3-hour closing-time tour, the private visit and the 4-hour Paris combination. You need to manage a moderate walking pace. The operator says the route is unsuitable for wheelchairs, pushchairs and visitors with mobility impairments.
How do Walks' Louvre options change the length and group?
