Our tour guide was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, as he quickly escorted us past the long lines and into the museum, navigating us to all the must sees! The skip the line was well worth the expense and then to have a top expert guide too! It was amazing!!

Our tour guide, LiLi, was lovely!! We were able to get up super close to the Mona Lisa because I’m pregnant! It was amazing. Lili knew so much about the art and the history of the building. My husband and I had an amazing time.

Julien our tour guide was so knowledgeable and shared so many details about several pieces of art, history and information that made our visit so much more impactful. He was very helpful when I needed a little assistance during the tour. We highly recommend the tour and you will be lucky if you get Julien as your guide. Thank you!

Avi, our guide from #TheTourGuy was at the meeting point waiting to whisk us past the long lines and straight in to the Louvre. From the moment we met, he was engaging and informative with a fun flare for humor. Avi moved us efficiently through and past the crowds right in front of the masterpieces we wanted to see, providing in depth perspective on the works of art, and background on the artists and the significance of the works. This was the most enjoyable tour I've ever experienced. I highly recommend The Tour Guy, and especially Avi.
Great Tour at the Louve

Fabienne was an exceptional tour guide! She skillfully navigated us through the vast museum, guiding us to the perfect viewing spots for various artworks. Her insights into the pieces we thought we already knew were truly enlightening. The tour far exceeded our expectations, and Fabienne’s expertise was the key to its success.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the highlights of the Louvre with Ari. He was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor, two things we really appreciated. The tour was the perfect length and Ari’s assistance navigating the massive museum was indispensable. Highly recommend!

Our family toured the Louvre with Sid, and it was wonderful! He was knowledgeable and funny, really bringing the museum to life. He was very patient with us, answering all questions, and made the experience truly enjoyable. He showed a true passion for the artwork he spoke about, which made the tour very engaging. I would love to use him again if we are back in Paris.

Dimitri is fantastic. He was incredibly knowledgeable and made the experience so much more enjoyable. He was very easy to understand. The pace of the tour was perfect. Highly recommended! The semi private small group and smaller crowds on Thursday evening were a plus!
Would not attempt the Louvre without a guide!

We had an amazing experience at the Louvre. Our guide helped us navigate the crowds and moved us efficiently through the museum. She included the most famous works (Venus de Milo, Athena Nike, and, of course, the Mona Lisa). But, she also showed us works that showed how art changed over the centuries and, in particular, how art reflected the political turmoil in the 18th and 19th centuries. Our family, which includes both a 13 and 11 year old, was engaged throughout the tour. We all agree that it was one of the highlights of our trip to Paris!
Great guide, perfect way to visit the Louvre

Our guide did a wonderful job of navigating the Lourve for us! From the beginning, she was a total pro. She sent us off to relax at a cafe while she negotiated the delay in the museum's opening, and then smoothly guided us through the bewildering entrance lobby and procedures. Once inside, she was able to put the history of the Louvre in context of the history of France, showing us details and exhibits we would have definitely missed on our own. Her knowledge of art history was also superb and greatly enhanced our appreciation of what we saw. Many thanks -- definitely the way to go!
Wonderful tour of the Louvre

Dimitri was a wonderful tour guide. We learned so much on our tour, and he moved us around the Louvre effortlessly. We went on a very busy day, and hardly noticed due to Dimitri’s expertise! Thank you!

Our private tour of the Louvre with Ivana was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Paris. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she possesses an incredible depth of knowledge about the museum, its history, and the artwork within it. She didn’t just show us the famous pieces—she brought them to life with fascinating context, stories, and insights that we would never have discovered on our own. Ivana’s expertise was impressive, but what made the experience exceptional was the way she shared it. She explained things in a way that was engaging, easy to understand, and tailored to our interests. Her professionalism was evident throughout the tour—everything was organized, seamless, and thoughtfully paced so we could truly appreciate what we were seeing without feeling rushed. Beyond her knowledge and professionalism, Ivana’s kindness and warm personality made the entire experience even more enjoyable. She was patient with questions, attentive to our pace, and genuinely passionate about making sure we had a memorable visit. If you are visiting the Louvre, I cannot recommend a private tour with Ivana highly enough. It transformed what could have been an overwhelming museum visit into an unforgettable and enriching experience. It was worth every minute, and we left with a much deeper appreciation for the art, history, and the Louvre itself.
