Lastly how are the performing arts in Paris (I'm from NYC and frequently attend music halls, so how does Paris compare?)

Thanks for the help. This SubReddit has been so helpful so far!

Recommended Tours/Travel Guides for the Louvre

Bonsoir! (It's currently like 8 PM at the time I am writing this, also I've always liked the way bonsoir sounded lol)

I am planning on traveling to Paris for the first time in Late July or Late August with my family. I wanted to visit the Louvre as it is something I always wanted to do. Since the museum is so big (and most likely chaotic with all the tourists that visit), I believed it was best to find a tour guide to ensure I would see everything I wanted to see. I was just going to book on Get Your Guide, but those tours mostly focus on the Mona Lisa and other painting, when I know this museum offers soooo much more to see. I do want to see the Mona Lisa, but I especially want to see Hammurabi's Code (which is actually so cool yet, NO ONE SEEMS TO TALK ABOUT IT!!!) and the Napoleon's Apartments. Including me there will be 3 people in total, I have a budget of around 250 euros for all 3 us. (I would like to stay around that amount, but I understand if that is too low, I can go up if necessary.) Any help is appreciated, thank you!
