About this tour

Spend a half day among the masterpieces of Paris on a guided visit to the Louvre and Musée d’Orsay. This 5.5-hour experience brings two of the city’s best-known museums together, with a professional guide leading a small group of up to 8 guests. Your Louvre and Musée d’Orsay guided museum tour includes entry to both collections, so you can focus on the art rather than arranging separate admissions. Meet your guide by the King Louis XIV statue in front of the Louvre pyramid, then explore the museums together. Adult entry tickets are included, and a private upgrade is available when selected. The museums’ rules shape the visit: arrive on time, bring ID showing your birth date, and leave the Louvre with your guide when the tour ends. Some galleries require quiet or limit speaking, and your guide will explain those rules before you enter. With two iconic collections on one itinerary, this Paris Louvre and Musée d’Orsay guided museum tour makes a rewarding choice for travelers short on time. Book your place and experience both museums with an expert guide.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.97 from 716 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Paris
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 9.3. Top 1% in Paris means it ranks in the top 1% of tours in Paris by this score.
