Our tour guide was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and professional! We would not have the same appreciation for the art without the education from our guide. We stayed a while longer and walked around realizing that without a guide, it just was not the same. It was really a great experience!
Fantastic!

Sid was knowledgeable and funny. It was great to have a small group so we could move between exhibits quickly. A guided tour is definitely the way to get the most out of a large museum like The Louvre.
Very Good!

The tour guide was well worth having. Going through the Louvre he gave us insight of styles of different artists. He gave personal opinions on why and how paintings were made. Much more detail and information we would miss from an audio guide. We enjoyed having a small group to be able to ask questions about different works of arts.
Of course this experience depends on the guide you get.
Fabulous guide at the Louvre

We had a wonderful tour of the Louvre even though this was our second tour to see the highlights. Maryam did a great job showing us the masterpieces while explaining important details about them. There were 6 of us on the tour which made it very efficient to see everything, including the Napoleon apartments and the medieval fortress.

Our tour guide was knowledgeable and we enjoyed the small group. My only suggestion is to go to the Mona Lisa first as the crowds were bad once we arrived.

Unfortunately the Louvre did not open for us. We waited 2 hours for it to open, but had tickets for other scheduled activities and had to leave. Sid our guide was great in the waiting process. We are requesting a refund for our tickets.
