Entering from the Caroussels du Louvre to skip the line around the pyramid still works everyone! Bought the ticket on my phone and walked right in.
Thank you! Was hoping it still worked.
Where is that located exactly? I am going to Paris is a few days and want to explore and enjoy as much as possible in the shortest of time. ALSO, do you think 2~3h is enough to explore it ?
I tried to follow the advice in this vid and still somehow managed to get lost in the Louvre. My sense of direction sucks. I was there for over 3 hours and I never found the way to get from section to section without returning to the pyramid to reorient myself. I'm sure pieces of my soul never made it out of the Louvre and are still trapped there right now.
Your last sentence is piece of art! :)
Hey, I heard there is a free entry on the last Saturday of the month from 6pm to 9pm for everyone. Should I avoid that? If not, which entrance should I go to?
LS M I do hope someone answers you because I have the same question. À la prochaine !
@@user-jh4sc1vh4q did you go? I went in October in 2018 and the line to the pyrimid was very short. It took maybe 15 minutes maybe to get in. I came out the entrance they came in through the underground mall. It seemed non centrally located but really not bad. So try that.
I laughed so hard!!! Hahahahahaha
You sir are amazing. Just took the entrance you suggested and saved ourselves at least 2 hours worth of queuing. Merci becoup! Xx
Happy to help! 😃
Hey... I am little confuse here.. do we have to enter via lion gate or through underground mall for quick entry to louvre
Just go there at 9:30 and there is no que anywhere 😂
I was lucky enough to study at the Ecole du Louvre, the most renown institute for History of art in France. We had a lot of lectures inside the museum, around the objects. After 3 years we literally had a mindmap of the museum and knew it from ground to roof. Such an amazing experience, I will forever feel incredibly privileged for this : )
how do I skip the line
Hey Jay! a few weeks ago my sister and I followed your advice in getting in to the Louvre. It was very successful. We only had to wait five minutes to purchase tickets. Others from our tour waited up to two hours! We are very grateful for this video and would recommend this to others who are interested in going to the Louvre but have been put off by the long queue. Keep up the good work! My sister and I really enjoy your videos. XX
That's great to hear! I'm glad it was helpful - I hope you had fun in Paris =)
Isn't it crazy how people seem determined to get in that long line to enter through the main pyramid?! It's like they just love long lines! If a building is that big, you've got to assume it has more than one entrance!
Jay Swanson hey jay, I’m heading there this summer in June, I was wondering, is it possible to go through the same entrance you went through if I’ve already bought the tickets online for the louvre?
Hey... I am little confuse here.. do we have to enter via lion gate or through underground mall for quick entry to louvre
@@snehabhambulkar9702 Both. :)
This was one of the most helpful travel videos I’ve ever watched on KZhead. Well done, mates. I need to go back to the Louvre just to notice the architecture now! Thank you for uploading.
Rewatching this video and remembering how it helped me maneuver through the Louvre with (relative) ease. I've been 4 times now and haven't waited in line once. Thanks again, Jay!
I spent 8 plus hours exploring and could barely walk once I left!!! It was an astounding experience!
So great!
I had gone to Paris (twice) but just through bus during our European tour. You did a very simple yet comprehensive view (for me) of the Louvre and am so thankful for what you did. Still am hopeful to be back again to Paris that only time would tell.
Just wanted to let you know your video helped me skip the giant lines! Ended up going through Palais Royale metro station and took exit 6 like you suggested, Et voila! No lines breezed right through. I had bought our tickets in advanced online. We missed our time slot for our tickets by an hour and I was really worried they wouldn’t let us in but not a problem at all! In case anyone else ever misses their time slot
I'm so happy it helped!
Thanks for that extra info on the time, I was just wondering
hey when you take exit 6 are you still under ground or are your outside ?
@@brianabennett6813 hmm sorry I can't remember now. It has been a while. I want to say yes?
@@brianabennett6813 you're still under i believe.
The Metro entrance seemed to be the best to me. When I did the Louvre in 2005, I had a plan of what I wanted to see and planned to make several visits so I saw pretty much everything I wanted to see. I think the biggest piece of art there is the building itself. We're planning a visit for next year and I know it will be on the list and hope I can make it enjoyable for the rest of the group who have never been.
Jay, these videos are excellent! My daughter and I have our trip booked and have been binge watching for the past week and a half. You have really helped us do our homework and plan a trip of a lifetime. Thanks for all your hard work!.
I'm glad they've been helpful! I hope you enjoy your trip! =D
Thanks Jay, now an official and first time Patreon!
Just wanted to say thanks so much for your vlogs! It helped us plan our trip to Paris and we loved every minute! From the Louvre to the best patisserie to using the metro, you were so helpful to us. And, we loved watching your vlogs!
I'm really glad it was so helpful! =D
Will be going to Paris in September and I have enjoyed many of your informative videos and your sense of humor...This Louvre video will help immensely and your pointing out sights to not miss. Sorry about the Eddie's loss.
Great! I'm happy to help - and me too, but thankfully he's doing better than ever these days =D
Bonjour Jay! This isn't about the Louvre, but it is about how to learn french and how you learned French. Thanks so much for that vlog! It has inspired me to continue my quest to learn french. I'm throwing everything at it! Duolingo, Lawless French, Rosetta Stone, Mussy teaches children french (that's the best!) and a night class. I'm a year and 1/2 in and I'm still a beginner, but loving it! Merci beaucoup for all you do!!!!!! Christie from Newport Beach
I just followed the tips for entering and touring the other day, and they were *hugely* helpful. I highly recommend taking notes and following this advice, especially because we found the Louvre confusing to navigate otherwise.
Hey Jay I'm a professor of Humanities here in the Philippines, this video is awesome to introduce art and architecture. Thank you very much.
I love your videos. I brought my mom this week to celebrate our birthdays (first time for both of us) and I've definitely have been using your videos as guides and suggestions to follow. Thanks! We are going to the Louvre tomorrow and the new Klimt exhibition so this video is just perfect for the amount of time I'm looking to spend there. Hope your new schedule/plans are working as planed.
I hope you have a blast while you're here - and that the Louvre isn't too crazy! We'll be at le Barbylon for a spot meetup at 8PM tomorrow (Friday) if you guys wanted to drop by goo.gl/maps/yCQxBatw1qB2 Either way I hope you're having fun!
I'm in love with your tour videos of Paris. I'm going there in July and will be on my own most of the time, so It's gonna be so much easier to visit the city now that I've seen how you go about and how it all looks like.
I'm glad that it's helpful! =D
precious information for those of us who are going to Louvre for the first time and also you 're doing such an amazing job with your montage editing. Loved, loved, loved it.
Thanks =D
I love your videos so much! Thank you for being so warm and generous!
Happy to share =D
Omg! This is so helpful! My bf and I are planning to go to Paris and he haaates long lines, so a hack like this saves us! Thank you so much
This is so helpful! I've been to the Louvre so many times now, but I don't feel like I've seen the half of it yet 😅
+Andrea Heckler it took me something like six visits to see Napoléon's apartments 😂
Me too! i've visited 2 times but i got to see most of it i guess, the second time i went to see Napoléons's apartments and it was out of this world!
We prepaid for an assigned time and got in almost instantly when our time came up. We went a bit later in the afternoon. It was a gorgeous set of buildings full of wonderful art and antiquities.
How could you miss out Napoleon's apartments? They were the most spectacular part of the visit for me. I was at the Louvre from 2:30pm until it closed at six and managed to squeeze those in at the end in addition to most of everything else you explored (except Hammurabi's Code, which I couldn't find). I'm glad I did and my shattered legs held out for long enough to have a look.
I'm so glad I've come across your channel, we're heading to Paris soon and your videos are so helpful!
Bryony awesome! I hope they help make your trip that much better! 😃
I used your tips from this video on my trip to Paris in Aug 2018. Really enjoyed the Louvre. Your vlogs are great!
Thanks! =D
We fully used this video to see the Louvre. We took our time, about 5 hours. Amazing.
Glad to hear it! I'm really happy it was a help - the Louvre is amazing
Top 1 of my favorites 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 Merci beaucoup Jay and Eddie 💓💓💓💓
You saw some great stuff. My pregnant wife and I spent 7 hours there. By the end we were really tired and overwhelmed, but that place is truly fantastic.
Tried this two days ago, the carousel trick still works, just gotta buy the ticket on your phone first. Jay Swanson is a boss. Thank you! Saved us lots of time
Hello! Do you know if people can enter without having a ticket first from Carousel entrance?
I don’t believe so. They asked us for a ticket at the underground carousel entrance and I didn’t see a place to buy one.
This is FABULOUS Jay! Thank you so much for all your work on this!!
+Cynthia Shepherd of course! Glad I finally got it done! I hope it's equal parts helpful and informative 😊
Helpful, Informative ... and BEAUTY-FULL! Mwah!
That was cool, thanks. I have not found the time to go in there and the queue has always stopped me from thinking too hard about it. Very entertaining. Poor Eddy though.
What a awesome video and thanks for showing some amazing art work and so sorry for you friend losing his stuff
Watched this last night here now. Thank you so much for your tips it’s already made a huge difference
Thanks for the highlights tour, I'm visiting the Louvre this Friday since it's longer opening hours, and going to see how much I can get round, but I doubt I'll even scratch the surface...
thank you thank you thank you!! Went to Paris in December and used all your tips and tricks! Especially getting in the Louvre with no line! Amazing! Thank you for what you do!!!!
I'm happy you had a good time! 😃
so happy I discovered this channel !!! binge watching all right now before the trip :)
Thank you!
I cried while watching it. I’ve visited Louvre 4 years ago but I couldn’t visit it well. Can’t wait to come back some time.
Your tour was helpful and informative and I like the way that you presented how to enter I didn’t agree with how you had the tools that you left outside but overall will give you an A+
Jay you’re a life saver!!!! We just got back from our trip to Paris and it worked perfectly. This entrance was so chill we thought we were entering the staff entrance and hesitated to enter. LoL We walked right in and had no line at all. Arrived at 8:59am and the line was already long. Thank you!!!!
Happy to help! =D
Hey... I am little confuse here.. do we have to enter via lion gate or through underground mall for quick entry to louvre... pls help
Do we have to have a printed ticket to go thru th security? Or we can just buy there on the spot? Thanks mate
Sneha Bhambulkar did you ever find out the answer to this? I have the same question but Nobody answers
Feel so bad for Eddie! Am a new subsciber and I love your videos! Will be leaving for Paris soon and it is my first trip. The Louvre is definitely on my list.
Michiko T I hope you have a great time while you're here!
Jay Swanson Thanks! And good luck on your quest for citizenship!
I'm going to London in April, but plan on doing an overnight stay in Paris as well. The Louvre is on my list, and I am so grateful for the video!! I would totally pay you to be my guide. You're so knowledgable of Paris.
Thanks!😁 I hope you have a great time here. And I do have a PDF guide if you want to grab a copy before you come! bit.ly/ParisVloggersGuide
I went to London then Paris for a first anniversary trip in 1996. Stayed at the hotel du louvre. When you go to the Louvre pay the money to have lunch outdoors at the cafe marly. It’s pricey but it was full sunshine in that setting. Totally worth the money For the experience. We hit the louvre the dorsay and Picasso museums and giverny tour within four days. Don’t miss the Medici fountain either and the hot cocoa in the tullieries garden. After Paris I enjoy even more our art institute in Chicago. We also started by the Eurostar first class from London then climbing to the top of Notre dame at sunset for our first look. Love your videos.
Thanks a lot for the valuable info! Even though I've been several times to the Louve, I didn't know about the entrance from the metro. Subscribed!
We will be visiting soon & thankfully already bought our tickets. We'll look for that Carrousel entrance!
+Claudia L awesome! If you enter from the north side where traffic goes through the Louvre you'll find that fancy looking entrance. Otherwise the metro or arch are great spots.
OMG- thank you so much for this video! This is so helpful!
My pleasure!
I visited the Louvre on somewhat of a short schedule and was able to find exactly what I was looking for which was all the famous sculptures (mona lisa, venus de milo, sphinx, winged nike of samothrace, etc) and then the Egyptian exhibit. It is HUGE and i know there were rooms in the Egyptian exhibit that I didnt get to. Planning for a 2021 summer trip currently and plan to spend at least 2 days visiting the Louvre.
Great video again. Like I already visited the Louvre in 18 min. Amazing work, thanks.
Thanks!
Thanks so much Jay and Eddie! I'm taking my 10 year old daughter this summer to Europe from BC Canada 🇨🇦 and this video helped very much. Blessings, Victor
Happy it helped!!
I was at the Louvre 3 years ago from lunch to closing. I was using Rick Steve's guide book. Very accurate, he said there'll be 30 Japanese taking pictures of her and when I found her, there were 30 Japanese taking pictures of her. 👍Rick. What impressed me on how many lectures being given to school children in the day and adults in the evening.
I really enjoyed this, merci. I've been a few times but would like to go back and just wander beginning how you suggested in chronological order. It's really inspiring to see the history.
It's a great way to get some perspective I think 😊
since yesterday ive been watching all of your videos , great job
I hope they're worth the binge! Thanks for going back through them =D
Hi. Thanks for the "way in" tip, saved us queuing in the cold rain, much appreciated!! Had a quick look for the tool bag, nothing...
Happy to help! And thanks for checking, I suppose it's lost forever
My favorite is the Richelieu wing ,those renaissance statues are amazing, the Denon wing have some really great paintings by the various maestros but then when I got to visit The Prado in Madrid thats when I really was amazed by the paintings hanging on its walls. Visitors especially the first timers should allocate a whole day for their visit.
The statues are incredible for sure. It would be easy to spend weeks in there if you had the time to spare.
Amazing to see how many people keep coming back to the video for tips. I plan to use this sprint to see a couple key works on the free evening. Merci
Gotta update it a little here soon though too haha
I absolutely love your videos. I’m traveling to Paris in July and your videos are very helpful in planning my itinerary.
Aw thanks - I'm glad to hear they're helpful!
gotta love the catholics, their stuff - or most of the precious ones - are in an airconditioned room at the Louvre, which is a blessing on a hot summer's day!
You just made my Louvre visit very enjoyable and fast, and saved me from wasting many extra hours by simply setting the pace for my movement.
Awesome! =D
You guys are crazy fun. Enjoyed this video! Thank you😃
Haha, happy to deliver 😁
EMT Quiver soon gonna upload my louv vlog too! Big changes... and the winged statue was said that nike copied that
This was awesome. We are Expats living in Deutschland and will be returning to the Louvre for the first time in 10 years. This video is such a great refresher. Thanks!
yahairlooksnice no problem! Glad it helped!
Jay Swanson we’re taking our 10 year old son, this should prove to be interesting!
Enjoyed this a lot!! Thank youu.. Hopefully I am going to experience this next month
I hope you love it =D
Very nice video! We enjoyed our vacations in Paris years ago and visited the Louvre. It was amazing! Thank you for the video!
Thanks for the video!!! I’m going to Paris in 2 weeks!!! Very helpful tips!
Thankyou, I found this both entertaining and informative
Great =D
Thank you for making a vlog dedicated only to Louver. I've been looking for this to get some idea.
Jay, Enjoyed your mini/economy tour! I'll bet security, while scanning the exterior landscaping, discovered and removed the "threat". I have a hopefully diverting little story to relate. My wife and I, with our 14 month old and ~4 year old, took our "trip of a lifetime" in mid-May 1999 (no rain nor mosquitos). One week in Paris and a week in the Loire River Valley. We rented an apartment in the 11th arrondissement and saw EVERYTHING Paris had to offer (we were younger, well researched and determined)! One problem, however.....the George Pompidou, Musee d' Orsay, Sainte Chapelle among others, were on strike (the staffs) including, of course.....the Musee du Louve....now what? We were never going to be able to return! But, it was announced while we were still in Paris that they would open on the Thursday! Great, but everyone else that was on their trip of a lifetime would ALL be there that day too! We were clever little tourists and WE also figured out to take the subway (we had maps) to the Louvre underground exit and just sauntered in with ZERO wait. The line outside the Pyramid stretched on forever. We saw hours worth of iconic art....FABULOUS! The one thing that surprised us was how small the Mona Lisa was. One of our other little triumphs was obtaining food for us and two tiny tired kids! Just by chance on the second floor hidden just off of one the stairways was an uncrowded absolute most charming outdoor terrace overlooking the inner courtyard and the Pyramid especially on a sunny perfect day. The food and price was quite reasonable considering the ambiance. I have lots of other interesting happenings to describe about that trip, and your guided walk brought back many fond memories. Thanks so much! .
Eddy is spanish. We went to school together was not expecting to see him here!!! 😂
He is Spanish and he's awesome
Thanks Jay, super helpful vid!! We’re visiting there this December, have 1 day only in Paris, great tips to visiting the Louvre in a hurry👌
😁👍👍
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! My wife and I were just in Paris and remembered this video. We found this entrance and were in and out in under 4 hours. It could have been quicker but we took our time once we were inside. I think there may have been 4 or five people in front of us for the security line. Then we just walked up to the ticket counter and bought our tickets and went straight in. Once again, thank you. Line ups are for suckers.
I was almost crying when I saw you pointed that 5000 years old “black rock”.... what a banquet us and our thousands history! Oh amazing! I’m going there next year. Thank you for the details! Best.🤝👍
Thanks Soooo much for this!!! I gotta say that I really enjoy your videos!! 8)
snowbunny1001 thank you in return!
This video was super helpful I’m going to Paris for a week with my boyfriend and need all the travel advice I can get 💜🗺💜
Great for a quick trip on a layover!
Extremely helpful video, thank you for sharing all your tips.
For sure! I'm glad you enjoyed it 😁
I'm going to the Louvre tomorrow and I was panicking about finding the best itinerary (even though I have a few more hours) , so I think this video saved my life. Thank you!
I hope you have a blast!😊😊
Loved it, has been to Paris before also but will in first week of October , just for videos, and travel. Will see Paris your way, thanks once again. Will also share with you once I complete and edit videos.
⭐Thanks for this pre-Covid tour! AND for fighting the crowds for us viewers not wishing to travel during this pandemic craziness! Fun time! Thanks!⭐
Loved your video! And yall made me laugh! Awesome work on the video and editing and information given.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Okay I have been to The Louvre and wish wish wish I would have seen your video first. We only had a few hours and we made almost all the mistakes you talked about. Next time I will know better. Great video. Had to subscribe. Also a travel blogger and love getting travel hacks
Thanks Jay for your tips, today we followed your direction to take the subway to Carousel/ Palais Royale station around noon, went straight to the Lourves entrance from the mall, waited in line less than 5min at the security, proceeded to the machine kiosk to get ticket, waited in line for less than 10min, and we are in! Considering today Mar 4th, 2020 is first full day after the Lourves closure from coronavirus strike for 3 days, we thought it would be crazy, but not so bad after all, some area are crowded like the Mona Lisa gallery, other areas are less crowdy. Beware some rooms were closed each day of the week, for example the Napoleon apartment is closed today on every Thursday
Love art. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure! =)
The coronation of Napoleon is my favourite painting in the Lourve. Just sat there for awhile looking at it :)
Have watched a lot of your KZhead channel. My wife and I visited Paris in mid-May '99 with our two children ~4yrs and 14 months for 7 days and 7 days in the Loire River Valley. While we were in Paris the Musee d'Orsy, San Chappelle, George Pampedou (being renovated) , Villanndry Chateau and gardens and the Louvre and others were on strike. They did open up the Louvre on the Thursday of that week so everyone on THEIR trip of a lifetime were there. We were sauve tourists and took the subway entrance underneath the Louvre and had NO waiting lines and walked right in as apposed to waiting 3hrs in the center court pyramid entrance. Among other interesting surprises was how small the the Mona Lisa portrait was. Another was finding on the second floor, a charming outdoor terrace restaurant overlooking the center courtyard Pyramid with no lines and warm sunlight l. We saw many of the iconic art works with our realistic viewing wish list and pre-planning. Please forgive my spelling mistakes, but it's late and I must "crash".
great tips man! gonna implement this on my website!
I've been in the Louvre only 4 times. I do the tour by "avoid" large crowd game plan. When I see a huge group in front of me, I just moved on and come back to see the whatever that section later, and then either I'm alone in the room or just very few people at the same spot. It's less stress for me and I have more chances to go back and review the art pieces I really love.
Thank you for this video, now I never need to go to the Louvre ever again 😅😅
+NonStopParis you are welcome
I took my 12-year-old daughter on the THATMuse scavenger hunt at the Louvre. It's the *perfect* way to experience the Louvre with kids!
Hi Jay Swanson, I'm Dennis Daniels from Cleveland, Ohio! Thanks for sharing your video about how to visit the Louvre in Paris!
You're most welcome!
thank you! good to know... going there on february. thank you!
I hope you have a blast!
Going in June. Your videos are legit. Great music too
Thanks! I hope you have a great time =)
I went early on a rainy Tuesday morning in November and just walked right in the door! No lines, no crowds, no problem. Of course there are nicer times of year to be in Paris, but going off season does have its advantages.
Indeed!
Super quick visit,really informative and fun! Need you to show us all the easy ways to have fun without the massive queues. Would love to know if Eddie ever found his tools or replaced them all. Great vids.
He had to replace them sadly - thankfully his work covered them I believe, so the only real loss on the day was his leatherman. That was still a sad one.
The one I have from the 80s is a better size and quality than the new ones.
Poor Eddie, look at his face after he found someone stole his tools.
+Aneesh T yeah, it stank
Jay Swanson is Eddie French?
Aneesh T thanks for the spoiler!
I found a toolkit and knives a while back. Now that I know they belonged to a couple goddamned backpack-wearing pinko hippies, I don't feel so bad for taking them.
😥😥😥
If you hate selfie sticks, you will really hate them after you go to the Louvre. When we were there, I think some tourists were on a personal mission to take a self in front of each and every piece of art. It's as if they had to prove that visited everything. It's an amazing museum, but I enjoyed the Musee D'Orsay more because it was less crowded when we went in the evening. Not sure if the Louvre is less crowded in the evening, but the lines in the morning were significant.
You can definitely get some good quiet time in the Louvre if you time it right (time of day and time of year) but yeah, the crowds can make it a bit difficult. D'Orsay is amazing. Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm surprised they allow selfie sticks. I thought most crowded places like this don't allow them anymore
man this was great. heading to london in couple weeks and plan on taking train for one day to paris and was worried about trying this in just one day...gonna go for it and use some of these tips..
Glad to offer some ideas =D
Jay Swanson I basically have 9 hours to make the most of. Something has to give I’m sure but I’ll do my best. Going thru a lot of your vids keep changing my mind haha. Notre dame Eiffel and d’orsay are front runners. Hopefully can squeeze in
Went to the louvre last Month October 4 ,19 and bought my ticket online with my phone and use it to skip the lines outside and it was much cheaper with people with no ticket. Get in to see the famous Mona Lisa and a few other artifacts and loved it !
Watched this video 3rd time. Loved it.
Glad you liked it so much! 😃
@@JaySwanson will try to say hello when I visit Paris next year
Jay that was a great tour. we are going in August any chance you know the name of the painting of the man visiting the museum? I can't find it anywhere and would love to see it when we go. Thank you!!
Going to Paris in April and already purchased and printed our Louvre tickets in advance. Our entrance is scheduled for the last 3 hours of the day so.....going to see what the evening crowds are like. Wish us luck.....and thank you for the helpful tips. Side note: I'll be leaving my tool bag home.......
Good call on the tool bag - gets expensive to stuff those in bushes
