Additional Information & Description
The Louvre Palace’s past comes into view on this outdoor guided tour in Paris, where virtual reality lets you compare historical reconstructions with the site as it stands today. Rather than taking you through the museum’s galleries, the experience focuses on the palace’s history, using immersive scenes to connect what you see around you with what once stood there.
Historical detail in 360°
The virtual scenes recreate architecture and costumes using thorough scientific research. Those details give you more than a general impression of an earlier era: they provide specific visual material for understanding the settings depicted. The high-quality, 360° views let you look around the reconstructed surroundings, taking in the buildings and clothing as parts of the same historical scene. Virtual reality serves as a visual aid to the history, with accuracy informing the reconstructions.
A live guide and a small group
Experienced guides accompany the tour and explain the settings shown through the headset. Their commentary adds context to the images, so the visit combines visual reconstruction with a guided account of the palace’s history. You take part in a small group, and live guiding is available in English and French. The experience lasts one hour and 15 minutes, bringing the virtual scenes and the guide’s explanations together within a defined visit.
