We had a great time, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and provided excellent background on various pieces of artwork and sculptures. I would highly recommend this method to see the Louvre. Once shown around I would take advantage of a second visit to allow for more time in areas that interest you.

Had the best time with private guide. We had a first time visitor among us, and Nkechi hit all the highlights without allowing anything to get overwhelming. Cannot recommend this highly enough. Have done Louvre on own many times- this was much smoother and overall better!

We had an amazing private Louvre tour with expert guide Will. He tailored the tour and exhibitions to suit our European travels. He provided us with detailed information, history and insights throughout the experience. He made our tour in the Louvre a memory we will cherish forever.
Thoroughly recommend The Tour Guy.
Thanks Will

We had an exceptional tour led by John today. We were a small group of five. He captivated us with his knowledge and enthusiasm. The louvre can feel like Charles de Gaulle airport because it's soooo crowded, vast, and complicated to navigate. This tour was worth every penny !! He was generous with his time and loves what he does. I am a thrifty person, I always take the metro, not cabs - IMO having a private tour makes the art and buildings come alive and I wouldn't want to visit the Louvre any other way. Thx to John we learned more and had a more rewarding experience than we would have with an audio recording
Thumbs up !!!

EXCELLENT! Ruth was very knowledgeable and personable. We chose Tour Guy because we had a very good experience at the Vatican, now we’re two for two. Will definitely be using Tour Guy again.

Sonali was a wonderful guide! She was friendly, easy to understand, had an immense amount of knowledge and could put the art into context that was relatable to our group. She navigated a very busy museum and showed us things I hadn't noticed on a previous visit. We would definitely use her again!

Our overall experience was great. Our guide was waiting for us where we were told. The tour was quick but efficient. it was a little shorter than I expected - we had thought it was to be 3 hours and it was more like 2 hours 20 minutes - but it covered the highlights. My only negative comment is that I tried to contact the tour company the day before and never received any kind of response from anyone. If there had been a real problem, I’m not sure there would have been any response at all. We were not told the guide’s name in advance so there was no individual to contact either.
Pleasant, knowledgeable guide

We appreciated all the information provided, especially hearing the historical context of many of the paintings. It would have been better if the guide was more familiar with getting around with a wheelchair, but I suppose the need for that is limited. We recommend a guided tour of the Louvre, as it is so vast, and we would use the Tour Guy again.
