9. Book a Private Tour for Exclusive Access

If you want the Louvre to feel like it's all yours, consider booking a private tour. Some tours are scheduled before or after regular hours. This allows you to explore key exhibits with hardly anyone around. It’s more costly but it will give you an exclusive experience.

A standard private tour during regular museum hours typically starts around €100 to €200 per person. However, if you're looking for an exclusive experience outside of regular hours (before the museum opens or after it closes), prices can be significantly higher, ranging from €600 to over €1,000, depending on the tour company and group size
