Editor's take

A 5-hour private booking gives you 2 hours at the Louvre and 2 at Musée d’Orsay. A walk by the Tuileries and along the Seine separates them. It suits you if you want both museums with a guide in English, French, German, Italian or Spanish.

The combination runs at 09:00 or 13:00, Wednesday to Saturday. Snacks, drinks and transport to or from the attractions are not included. The shorter Louvre-only option lasts 2 hours 30 minutes; cancel either booking at least 24 hours before departure for a full refund.
