About LouvreInsider

Illustrated portrait of Yogi, author of LouvreInsider

I'm Yogi, a regular 9-to-5 guy based in the USA, and independent travel guides are my side quest.

LouvreInsider started the same way my other guides did: I was researching a future visit and got buried in confusing ticket tiers, changing prices, and contradictory advice. So I did what I do best, I researched the heck out of it, starting with official sources.

Everything here is built from official information and cross-checked as the rules change. I'm not affiliated with the museum, I don't sell tickets, and if I haven't verified something myself, I'll tell you exactly where to check it.

I'm a husband and dad, and I put this together in my spare time because I genuinely enjoy helping people get it right.

How this site works

  • Official sources first. Prices, hours, and rules are checked against official sites and updated when they change.
  • No invented experience. If we haven't done something ourselves, we say so — and point you to the source.
  • Reader-first, always. LouvreInsider is an independent travel information site and is not affiliated with the Musée du Louvre or any French government body. Always verify prices, hours, and entry rules on the official louvre.fr before your visit.
