Editor's take

The Mona Lisa comes first on LivTours’ private route, followed by other Louvre highlights. Your guide speaks English, and the listed visit lasts 90 minutes for your party alone. Venus de Milo, Winged Victory and the Coronation of Napoleon are also named, making this a short introduction.

An 08:30 start precedes the museum’s 09:00 public opening, so confirm the entry arrangements before booking. LivTours asks you to arrive 15 minutes early at the horse statue outside the Pyramid. Cancellations qualify for a full refund only at least 24 hours before departure.

What does LivTours’ 08:30 Louvre tour include?
