Touring the Louvre with The Tour Guys was an experience I won’t regret! Although this wasn’t my first time at the museum, it was my first time with a guide, and it made a huge difference. The museum can be overwhelming, but our guide was personable, knowledgeable, and made navigating the space effortless. I learned so much more about the art pieces, including the Mona Lisa, than I did when exploring on my own. Plus, having a guide meant skipping the long entry lines and coat check, making the experience even smoother. The meetup point was easy to find, and the provided headset ensured we could hear everything clearly. If you want to truly appreciate the Louvre without getting lost in the crowds, this is the way to go

Don't hesitate to book. Super interesting and the kind of insight that makes you want to learn more and spend even more time there! I booked this for the first morning of our arrival, knowing we would not be able to check into the hotel yet and that we needed to keep moving. Even sleep-deprived, this was SO GOOD. PLUS, our guide, Anaïs, showed us all how to check our coats and larger items in the lockers, find restrooms, and avoid tacky tourist food traps. :-) Kudos all the way around. Would go again, will definitely book with The Tour Guy.

Fantastic Tour

So happy we had Avi to guide us through the Louvre with incredible knowledge about the art and its rich and fascinating historical, political, and social context! Was great to have a guide with a fantastic ability to make statues seem lively and giant art works approachable lead us through the hordes of visitors at the entrance and make our few hours meaningful and memorable. Merci beaucoup!

Hugo took great care of us for an afternoon; getting us in quickly and showing us the history to start, showing the highlights, and of course getting us close to the Mona Lisa and giving us knowledge about her and the painter.

Perfect Tour for First-Time Louvre Visitors

Our family booked this tour to ensure we made the most of our visit to the Louvre. It was a highlight of our week long trip to Paris and something we all said we will be booking again to explore other tracks of the Louvre if and when we return to Paris. The guide not only gave us a tour of some key pieces at the Louvre, he also gave us a tour of the rich background of the building. He was great with young children, engaging them and answering questions along the way. He gave ample time and I loved that we didn't have a flag to follow as many groups we saw did, but rather a calm voice speaking into our ear via an earbud that allowed us to truly enjoy and reflect as we experienced the museum.

After some initial confusion about the meeting place, and an original tour guide who had a personal emergency, causing us to start a few minutes late (made up for during the actual tour), the tour itself was wonderful. Guide was extremely knowledgeable, very friendly, and I am certain I couldn't have covered nearly as much territory on my own if I'd had days to do it. Highly recommended.,

Amazing tour! Got a late start because it was a Friday and crazy crowded, but we saw everything we were promised. Nadezda was exceptional. Knowledgeable beyond expectation. We had one day in Paris and the Louvre was a must. This is the only tour company you should consider.

Perfect!
