The reservation was easy...
The reservation was easy to make. The Louvre Museum was awesome. The Seine River Cruise was awesome to end the day. We saw the Eiffel Tower lighted up & sparkled.

Q:Can I see the Louvre in 2 hours?
A:

Yes, you can see some of the Louvre in two hours, but you’ll likely want longer in the museum as there’s a lot to see—35,000 works of art to be precise. If you’re short on time, a tour can help you navigate straight to the highlights.

Q:Is seeing the Mona Lisa free?
A:

Yes, the Mona Lisa is included in the standard ticket price for the Louvre. The portrait is displayed behind protective glass in the Salle des États, the largest room in the museum. There are almost always crowds around the Mona Lisa, so you might have to wait a bit to get a good glimpse.

Q:Do Louvre tickets sell out?
A:

Yes, Louvre tickets can sometimes sell out, so it’s a good idea to book your tickets in advance—especially if you want to secure a specific time slot, as all tickets are timed. A limited number of tickets are available at the museum during off-peak times, but the lines can be very long.
