2 hours we covered a lot of the main pieces of the Louvre. There is nothing that I felt Nick left out. He gave the perfect amount of detail and kept us moving. He had a locker ready for us to deposit our jackets and bags. He also knew some back ways and service elevators that we used.

Nick was an amazing tour guide, very knowledgeable, and was able to navigate the chaos of The Lourve wonderfully. We highly recommend using Nick for your Lourve Tour! He went above and beyond to make our tour a day to remember.

Nick was a fantastic tour guide of the Louvre! From the intro text, the tour of the Louvre to going above and beyond to recommending nearby restaurants… Very professional and knowledgeable!

We had a fabulous experience and I can’t say enough good things about our tour guide Nick! This experience allows you to choose exactly what you would like to see in the Louvre. It’s a great way to go through the museum in a smaller group setting. We were able to see everything on our list and then some. I highly recommend.

Thank you so much for your fantastic review! It was a pleasure to accompany you in the largest museum of the world!

Nick’s tour of the Louvre was wonderful. We were there on a very busy Saturday and he knew how to navigate around the crowds and get us the best views on the exhibits. He was very knowledgeable about the museum and the highlights we saw and we learned so much. Best of all, Nick was intentional to engage our 8 and 11 year old boys and kept their attention with his age appropriate story telling throughout. I simply can’t recommend his tour highly enough. Thanks Nick!

Best decision was booking a tour guide for my fist visit to The Louvre. Nick was so knowledgeable and patient with us as we explored exhibits from Egypt to Napoleon. The museum was incredible.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Thank you so much, Ty! See you one of these days in Louisiana!
Jeff_S, May 2025
A great way to get a customized tour of the Luvre. Nick was great and also took us by the highlights. His access also got us within feet of the Mona Lisa for a people free picture.
Response from Host, May 2025
Thank you so much for your positive review! From the gorgeous Napoleon III apartments to the Mona Lisa, passing by the fashion exhibit — it was a pleasure to customize this tour for you
Elizabeth_C, May 2025
Nick was a great tour guide! We had limited time but still got to see the highlights of the museum and exhibits that we had wanted. Highly recommend!

我們的導遊是Nick in Paris，他非常專業, 對博物館及展品知識豐富, 我們不是第一次參觀羅浮宮, 他精心特意帶我們去一些我們從未到過的展館, 他為人十分友善, 對中國文化有濃厚興趣, 所以這次我們寫了這篇中文的回應, 以表謝意.

Great private experience! Got to see the Mona Lisa up close. What an opportunity of a lifetime! Totally worth the extra expense!
Response from Host, Apr 2025
Thank you for your review! We're glad you were able to see the Mona Lisa up close that day!
Kelly_W, Jan 2025
Our guide, Nick, was terrific! He was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. He made things seamless, which was no small feat on a very busy day at the Louvre. He tailored the tour to our interests and showed us all the highlights. I highly recommend this experience!
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Thank you for your wonderful review! Happy new year!
James_T, Nov 2024
Nick, our very educated and talented guide, gave us a wonderful tour. In two hours I learned more than in 2 previous tours of the Louvre. Not only did Nick make sure we saw all the highlights, he was able to help me negotiate the tour with my bad back and feet. We highly recommend Nick and his tour!
Izabela_B, Nov 2024
Beyond 5 stars. Absolutely a pleasure to have Nick be our private tour guide for 2 hours for an introduction of the Louvre/ highlights.
Our family tour for 5 ages 14-83 was memorable and pleasant bc of Nick. He is knowledgeable, relaxed and friendly. Also he was awaiting at the beginning on time and easily identifiable (arranged by text and WhatsApp). French native. Fluent in English. He was able to remove all the stress and crowd chaos and transformed our visit into one we will never forget! From interesting conversations and questions with my teens to assisting an elderly he was on point with everything. The Louvre offers wheelchair assistance with a form of ID. Nick knew how to navigate all the elevators, offered a locker and an initial restroom break. He is extremely thoughtful in crowded situations and facilitated our groups front of the line and close up looks at the artwork. Do yourself a favor and book this tour- it will be completely worth it. Thank you again Nicholas.
Ashley_O, Oct 2024
Our tour guide was so informative and attentive. We were able to place our bags in a locker, which made the tour stress free. The skip the line is of course a perk, but having a private tour made the experience so personalized.
Debbie_G, Oct 2024
Nick tailored the tour to what we most wanted to see. Being able to skip the very long lines was a huge bonus.
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Thank you for your review, it was a pleasure to help you discover the Louvre!
Christine_M, Apr 2024
Nick was awesome. Very knowledgeable and an overall great guide. Highly recommended by us for sure!!
Sophie_H, Mar 2024
First of all cutting through the line and going right to the front - made us feel like royalty! Nick told us about the history of the Louvre which is fascinating. He asked us how we wanted to approach the tour which was great to be able to customize! Will do this tour again - so great!
Donald_D, Jan 2024
Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable of the museum, very professional, and attentive to our every need. He spoke multiple languages fluently and was well worth the cost of the tour. The museum was very busy and having a guide made a big difference.
Response from Host, Jan 2024
Thank you very much for this wonderful review!
Christopher_C, Nov 2023
Nick is a great guide. We were an hour late and he was still exhibited great patience and appreciated the tour for us. Very knowledgeable and informative. Highly recommend
Jason_B, Aug 2023
We had a fantastic experience during our private tour of the Louvre with Tours by Nick. Our son had just taken Art History and Nick was very patient and engaging with his questions and catered the tour to our interests. Our son had a particularly good experience because of Nick's knowledge and because he took the time to thoughtfully answer. He also gave us a little lagniappe time at the end. Highly recommend!
Kay_E, Aug 2023
Nick was fantastic, very accommodating, and easy to communicate with prior to the tour. We were able to access the museum before it off too busy without having to wait in line. Nick was very knowledgeable and knew the Louvre like the back of his hand. We would have been lost without him! My husband and I didn’t really have a plan of what we wanted to see when we arrived, Nick showed us the highlights and would comment on pieces that we took interest in as we walked through the museum. Definitely worth having a private expert to guide you through!
Chrissy_R, Jul 2023
Nick was great! He communicated our meeting point clearly, showed up early and was easy to find. We found him both knowledgeable and personable. We saw so much in a relatively short time. We couldn’t be happier with this tour!
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Thank you for your review! It was a privilege to welcome you on Bastille Day in an undercrowded Louvre!
Michelle_M, Jul 2023
Nick was AMAZING!! We had four kids in tow and he managed to hit an area that each one wanted and kept them interested. He was so personable and just a fun guide! Also real easy to communicate with! I would recommend him to anyone 😁
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Thank you for your review! It was a pleasure to customize this Louvre tour for you!
Jeremy_A, Jul 2023
The Louvre is large and it would take months to fully appreciate all it has to offer. So, a true challenge for a guide to cover 5,000 years of art with a family in 2 hours! Our guide, Nick, was excellent. He was thoughtful in asking us what we wanted to see and delve into. He provided enough detail when needed but also brief when it was too much. We quickly went past the Mona as that room was mobbed. A great intro tour to a complex museum.
Liz_B, Jun 2023
Our guide was so friendly and full of information. We were able to get into the museum quickly and he was very flexible, customizing the tour to the works we wanted to see most. Highly recommend!
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Thank you very much! It was a pleasure to welcome you to the Louvre. Flexibility is of the essence in the largest museum of the world!
Mahereen_M, Jun 2023
Nick communicated in advance and provided instructions on where to meet, he was prompt and was able to get us in via the group line. Additionally provided headsets to hear his comments, he was well versed in the highlights of the museum and was very flexible to cover what we wanted. We enjoyed the tour!
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Thank you for your review! It was a pleasure to customize your itinerary and meet your expectations!
Wiliam_P, Jun 2023
Nick was unbelievable and saved the day! The Louvre was in total disarray! It had been closed all morning due to a state visit from Macron and the Italian PM and had re-opened extremely late. The lines were insane.
We don't know what we would have done without Nick. He whisked us through the crowds with expert precision, and we saw everything in spite of the craziness. It felt like walking around this world class museum with an old friend, who just happened to know everything about it. Whan incredible day!
Do NOT attempt the Louvre without a guide, and I could not imagine a better guide than Nick.
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Thank you for your review! This was indeed a memorable and tumultuous day!
Karen_K, May 2023
Nick was an excellent tour guide. He was patient with us as we are older and knew exactly how to make the tour work for us. Thank you.
Response from Host, May 2023
Thank you, Karen! I was happy to help you efficiently navigate the museum and introduce you to the artistic diversity of the Louvre.
christina_d, May 2023
Our guide Nick was great! He was very informative and fun. He showed us all we wanted it the time allowed, even though we had a person with mobility issues. He kept us all together and gave us great insight into the paintings. I would definitely recommend this private tour! Thank you Nick!
Response from Host, May 2023
Thank you very much for your review! I was happy to help you enjoy the museum to the fullest without worrying too much about mobility issues.
Beth_S, May 2023
Nick is very knowledgeable and knows his way around the Louvre. He was interested in what we wanted to see and customized the experience just for us.
Response from Host, May 2023
Thank you for your review! I'm always glad to adapt the tour's itinerary to my clients' wishes and thus optimize their time spent in the museum.
