Our guide was excellent. Knowledgeable about the museum and the art. We were able to see all the main highlights we wanted to see and more in a short time! It was great to go at closing time with less crowds. Would definitely book a tour again through the tour guy.
Excellent way to see the Louvre highlights.

We weren't going to the Louvre- but changed at the last because we saw reviews of this Tour! Wow!! One of the highlights if our Paris experience! The group was small, and the tour efficient and conducted by a fabulously knowledgeable guide- who made it educational- and interesting!! Highly recommend this- and wish we would have used these guides in some of the other museums.

Cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Carolina was our guide - she was engaging, funny, and highly informative. She did a wonderful job keeping our tour together and navigated us all smoothly through the Louvre crowds. She was a wealth of information and we were lucky to enjoy her expertise and point of view.
Louvre Tour - Great !

We took the 5 pm tour of the Louvre - seeing the most noteworthy pieces at the end of the day when the museum was less crowded. Our guide was very informative and led us through the key viewing areas. A great compact tour !
Louvre History and Highlights - a winner!

This was the perfect tour for us. My husband had never been to France. I've been to the Louvre twice - but the most recent was 30+ years ago. In spite of the crowds, he got to see the main attractions. The Mona Lisa - the hype - is readily apparent even before you round the corner to see her. Don't miss other amazing artworks to be mushed by the crowds. The Louvre has much to offer - really I think a good tour guide is key. William kept us moving but allowed us moments here and there to explore on our own. The history of the Louvre alone is worth the visit and guide. Big plus - free storage for jackets and sweaters (it's hot inside) and bathrooms with no lines if you do a group tour :). Highly recommend this tour.

The Tour Guy Changed the tour time to 3:30 from closing time. The tour guide was enthusiastic and very knowledgeable but the crowds were insane. The main reason to take the tour is to be able to navigate through the throngs of people at the Louvre. It was just like Disneyland.

Amil was a fantastic guide. He was very knowledgeable about EVERYTHING! It’s obvious he loves his job and is passionate about the Louvre and French history. He took us to all the high points so we didn’t have to spend all day searching for the best displays. Such a fun tour! Thank you!

Our guide ( Avi) was extremely knowledgeable during our tour . The crowds were difficult and only negative comment was while viewing the Mona Lisa , they suddenly rushed us all out. Our tour was shorten by 1 hour . Overall excellent, if I ever get back I need to see more and will definitely consider your company.
Great Tour

I've been to the Louvre before but never had a guided tour. Not wanting to spend all day in the crowds, this was the perfect solution. Our guide (I didn't get her name, but she is pregnant) was great. She was extremely knowledgeable about both art and history, gave us hints on where to get the best photos, but didn't stay over long at each spot. We were able to get up close to everything except the Mona Lisa. Even at closing time, the crowd around Her was 8 people deep. No matter, my husband and I enjoyed the tour. The Tour Guy delivered the tour I was hoping for, plus a delightful, knowledgeable guide. I intend to book more of your tours in the future. Great job!
