Expect huge crowds outside and long lines to get tickets if you don't buy a 2,4,or 6 day Paris museum pass (avail from all museums and tourist information - gives you a direct in when you arrive at any gallery or museum). Get a museum plan and spend a few minutes deciding what you want to see. If it is... More

My husband and I spent 10.5 hours in Louvre and still didn't get to see everything. At the end of the day we were exhausted, but we'd do it again - the memories are fenomenal!

This musee is the only one in the whole world that my wife enjoyed. For a musee (in english "museum") that big and you need the whole day to see. In this musee you can see all types of drwaings that are a few hundred years old. In the musee Mona lisa is there to welcome you. This mona lis... More

I know this sounds crazy, but there are so many museums that are so much better! Very difficult to get around easily especially with construction. We were first in line with pre purchased tickets a must! Get to the Mona Lisa and have a plan of what you want to see ahead of time. Cafe over priced, and self seating... More

Well at least I can say "I've been to the louvre". Too crowded, hard to negotiate, prices-- five euro for a coke?... At least it wasn't stifling hot inside. Yes the mona lisa was there, at least I think it was; what with the crowds 15 people deep and the small picture, all I could really be sure of was... More

Mind blowing experience. Go in the afternoon immediately after lunch to avoid rush and be ready to spend the rest of the day there to do any justice! Even then you will have to select what you like and do only that! Probably rush thru the rest if you don't don't intend to come back again!

What can you say? This is simply the best museum in the world! I must confess, I broke the rules and had my wife take my picture with me standing by "Starry Night" by Van Gogh (no flash), it is perhaps my favorite painting. There was a crowd around the Mona Lisa, but there always is. I am handicapped with... More

Too big, too crowded, ttoo much of everything. You "have" to go, but will do so with little joy or enthusiasm. The big 3: Mona Lisa, Winged Victory, and the Venus de Milo are there to be seen. We saw them---and ran for the door...

Awe inspiring.. Amazing art collection on display. Be prepared for long waiting times and huge crowds especially during peak hours. To avoid crowds, better to go in very early. Visit would take minimum 2-3hours atleast.
