Anne was very impressive with her knowledge of the Louvre. It would be most helpful to the guest if your guide had a microphone or we wore headsets as it very loud inside & we struggled to hear Anne. My friend is deaf in one ear. Great experience & thank you. Connie Korb

Our guide did a fabulous job of touring the city of Lourdes, the ancient sites, the story of Bernadette, where and how she lived, we saw her home and then toured the Lourdes sanctuary site, the grotto and all of the churches there. She was so knowledgeable and friendly and yet professional, my wife and I could not have asked for a better guide.
Amazing Tour!

John Edward was a fabulous tour guide! He was wise and concerned about our physical comfort (made sure we knew how to store coats ahead of time, knowing the tour would be warm; finding great places to stand for viewing the art), very knowledgeable about what he was showing and gave a wonderful historical context for the art and the building. He made sure we could hear him all of the time without a headset and welcomed questions. John also conveyed a sense of welcome and humor. We would love to do another tour with him any time.

John was our tour guide for a small group tour at the Louvre. He was phenomenal! He is an art historian, and had such great insights into the art he showed us. He was very professional, and was clearly very passionate about his job as a guide - he was able to tell such great stories!
The tour itself was also great. Loved seeing the highlights as well as some of the lesser known gems.
We have booked many tours, and John was by far one of the best tour guides we've had. 100% would hire him again!!

This tour allowed us to see the highlights of the Louvre in the perfect amount of time. Our tour guide, Ruth, did an excellent job of explaining each area we walked through and the importance of each. She was interesting and very knowledgeable. She did a great job of keeping us engaged and answering all our questions. We really liked the small group of six people, and felt like we had our own private tour guide. If you’re a first time visitor to the Louvre, I highly recommend this tour!
