Overview

Discover the Louvre’s masterpieces in a private tour tailored just for you. With your expert guide, experience an intimate and engaging journey through art and history, free from the rush of large groups.

At Dayin, a Paris-based company born from our love of Paris and its museums, we’ve been exploring the Louvre since childhood. Our guides are in the museum daily and know how to easily navigate the crowds and show you the must-sees.

Your private guide will customize the tour to match your interests, whether you’re a first-time visitor or an art enthusiast looking for a deeper exploration.
• 2h Highlights Tour – See the must-sees like the Mona Lisa & Venus de Milo.
• 3h Extended Tour – Explore famous & lesser-known masterpieces.
• 4h Deep Dive Tour – A fully immersive Louvre experience.

Enjoy optimized access with your guide, and feel free to continue exploring the museum at your own pace after the tour. No need to print or download anything—just arrive and enjoy the experience!
