This was a great introduction to the Louvre! She hit all the highlights and then we had roamed alone after the tour! I highly recommend this if it’s your first time at the louvre!

Thank you so much for the great review. We would the happy to welcome you another time with us for other tours.
Best wishes
Our guide stood us up . We are still waiting for a refund. We called them and was told it was too hot after we took the metro and waited for 2 hours outside. It was warm and sunny not overly hot.
Monica was a great guide. We waited an hour to get into the Louvre due to a strike, but in the end we were able to see many highlights.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for the good review. If Monica got only four stars instead of five because of the strike, we just want to underline that such events are completely out of our control and we couldn’t do anything to avoid such an inconvenience.
Thank you again for your understanding.
Warm regards.
It is a definite on a visit to Paris. The guided tour is the only way to avoid the long lines! So much to see!
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you so much for the great review. Hope to see you again for the visit of another of the great museums and monuments in Paris.
Best wishes.
Our guide was so knowledgeable and excited to share all the history of the Louvre. She was very engaging and kind. Would highly recommend!
Monica was our guide and she was wonderful. She kept us moving, gave great tips for pieces to look at and why and made sure to bring in plenty of pop culture references for my teens.
Elizabeth was SO GREAT!! She gave us such a wonderful perspective of the Louvre…the history, the artists and had such an awesome way of giving us more in depth understanding of the historical significance of the artwork too.
Very informative and quite awe inspiring to see exhibits and all the paintings. Needed more time to see

Hello Warren,
Thank you so much for the review. We appreciate that you liked our tour. If you needed more time, you could just book a longer tour with us, we are more than happy to guide our guests for half a day or even more through the Louvre or to propose thematic tours on several days. So next time you book with us, make sure to choose the format you really want.
Best wishes
An excellent way to see and understand this amazing museum! Efficient and fast entry to beat the crowds and a knowledgeable guide make this tour standout.
Response from Host, Aug 2025

The tour was good and had a quick pace. The guide was very helpful, but very, very hard to understand. She was trying very hard to communicate with us in English, but it was a struggle for us to understand her. We did appreciate her enthusiasm and desire to make the trip valuable for us.
The museum would take months to digest every piece of art. The tour we took was the perfect amount. Our well educated guide made the history of the museum as interesting as the art within it. I grew up in NYC and will look for such a tour at the Met!
We had the very best guide Tonya. My kids adored her and she always made sure we were all together and saw the best sights! She was extremely knowledgeable, wish we had more time!
We had a great time learning and touring the grounds of the museum with our tour guide Natalia. She was fantastic, high spirited, fun and very knowledgeable.
We need to go back a few more times. The museum is gigantic 😊
Great stories and information. The guides were great. We were traveling with 4 adults and 5 kids and the length was just right. Be prepared for large crowds.
A wonderful way to see the Lourve and not feel overwhelmed. Monica was very knowledgeable & did a great job helping us see key highlights of the Lourve
Elizabeth was the most wonderful guide. She transformed an overwhelming and chaotic museum trip into a charming, funny, and informative storytelling experience. It was amazing! Elizabeth is amazing! !
We had to quit after being in the tour for 15 minutes. We simply could not understand the tour operators broken english.
Thank you so much Ms. Monica, our dedicated tour guide, who was very interactive and well versed about the history. We were a group of 4 family members with two children. She engaged with children very well. Merci ☺️
Very knowledgeable tour guide, with great must see spots of the Louve. Perfect length for a tour to see the main attractions.
Monica was an expert guide with a thorough knowledge of the aspects of the Louvre presented and an ease about her that made the whole tour stress free and fun.
Prompt, professional, knowledgeable courteous. She offered to take our photos multiple times & even offered to continue our tour past Roman, Greek, Neoclassical areas of the Sully Section. We saw major works such as Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, and others.
We were unable to visit more than the outside and lobby. The tour company had failed to purchase the tickets not once but twice. So we were not able to attend.
The tour takes you through all the highlights and the guide is very knowledgable. Mona Lisa is last. You will wait on queue on your own if you choose.
We highly recommend this tour and our guide, Elisabeth. It was 6 of us—3 high school seniors and their moms- and we were very happy with the tour…it was definitely a highlight of our trip. Elisabeth was full of knowledge and delivered it in a way that was entertaining and interesting.
The guide, Christian, had awesome information, stories, facts etc. Moved us through very well and we felt like we saw it all
We would not have gotten as much from the tour with out our knowledgeable guide.
Fantastic, kid friendly tour provided by Dmitry which helped us to extremely efficiently get through the highlights. Tour length of 2hrs was absolutely perfect for 7 and 9 year old kids. We we able to skip the huge lines, walk right in and see everything we wanted. Once the tour was over we were free to roam the museum for the rest of the day. Highly recommended!
Our tour guide was great. The museum was crowded, but our guide led us through the fast entrance. She gave a good overview of the main attractions. Overall the museum is enormous and I’m glad we had someone who knows where to look to guide us through.
Terrific high-level tour. It hit many of the most important pieces within the two-hour period. Exactly what we were looking for. Our guide, Dimitri, was great!
Great tour because of our guide Elizabeth! She knew all the spots to move us along quickly and get the views of what we wanted to see. The crowds were extremely large so having Elizabeth made all the difference. She knows her history and can answer any questions.
