Editor's take

Up to 6 of you have a private guide for 2 hours, in English or French. Raphael’s listing includes the Mona Lisa, Winged Victory and Venus de Milo among its suggested stops. The guide adapts the route to your children’s ages, making this a family introduction to the collection.

Your booking must include at least 1 adult and 1 child, with 6 people the maximum. Booking 3 hours costs more if you decide your family wants a longer visit. Hotel transfers, food and drinks are excluded, so you need to arrange those yourself.

Should you book Raphael’s Louvre family tour for 2 or 3 hours?

2 options. Prices are per adult for a party of two, the usual lowest price of each option. The booking page shows the price for your date.
