This weekend my travels brought me to Paris and the Louvre. The first time I was at the Louvre, I left feeling there was so much left to be seen, and I was right! It was really nice to have the opportunity to spend a full day there and stroll through all the different areas at my own pace with my audio guide. 
The cost of admission for the Louvre is 11 Euros, in advance you can download the Louvre audio guide from the App store for $2.99 and it gives you a tour and description of all the most see artworks.
Or you can rent the audio guide at the museum for 5 Euros, this audio guide works with a Nintendo DS and it gives you nice images of the art work you are seeing. If you are planing to be in Paris for a few days the Museum Pass is the way to go , as you can purchase it for 2, 4 or 6 days and it provides admission to other museums in the areas as well as "skip the line" entrance.
