Explore the must-see Pompidou Centre on a special private-viewing tour! With an expert guide to show you around, you'll see the most exciting collection of modern art in Paris, housed within the creatively designed Pompidou building. Even better, your exclusively arranged Pompidou ticket with private-viewing ensures you'll have this intriguing Paris museum all to yourself before the general public step inside! See famous works of art by Picasso, Matisse, Dali and more on your Paris Pompidou tour!

Numbers are limited to 25 people on this small-group tour, ensuring you'll receive personalized attention from your knowledgeable guide.

Located in the lively district of Beaubourg on Paris' Right Bank, the Centre George Pompidou (or more simply, the Pompidou Centre) is a fascinating factory-style structure that cuts a sharp contrast with the older, traditional buildings that surround it. Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers, the Pompidou's architects, planned the Pompidou Centre with the intention of making art and culture accessible to everyone, and this is reflected by the colorful crowds that spill onto the plaza outside.

It is here that you'll meet your knowledgeable guide, who will lead you straight through the priority entrance and into the building, before the doors open to the general public. While the queues form outside, you'll have this fascinating Paris museum all to yourself. The Pompidou Centre focuses on modern and contemporary art, represented by the movements of Cubism, Surrealism, Dadaism and Abstract Expressionism. If you have no idea what these movements are, don’t worry – you'll find out! Your guide will explain these frequently misunderstood concepts while introducing you to the works of renowned 21st-century artists.

Learn how Dali used his art to describe his dreams through the concept of Surrealism, and how Matisse used color as an expression of intention. Your guide will explain these masterpieces so you can see them as they were intended to be seen.

Before your two-hour Pompidou tour ends, you'll head to the building's glass-enclosed top level to enjoy some of the best panoramic views in Paris. Sit and enjoy a coffee (additional cost) at the museum's charming terrace café while reflecting on the modern art you've seen and experienced on your private-viewing tour. Your skip-the-line ticket also allows you to explore the Pompidou at leisure after your tour ends.
