Highly recommend this tour! Hamish was our guide - he was informative, personable, and made us all stop and think at every piece he discussed. Really appreciated his point of view and interpretation of the art we saw. He also managed the crowds at the Musee d'Orsay very smoothly for us, made the experience much less overwhelming.

Our guide, Anais, was fantastic. She was knowledgeable and a pleasure to have guided us through the museum. We learned so much, saw beautiful art, and enjoyed our time at the Musee d'Orsay. Thank you, Anais!

The confusion was at first while we were . waiting at the elephant, because our guide had a different flag than The Tour Guy sign. Anais was very knowledgeable, which was wonderful. But we would have liked to have seen more works and heard a little leas about the history behind the pieces. It was a very long tour and we did not see as much as we had hoped, although her explanations were very thorough and interesting. Just needed to be a quicker pace to see more. We were tired by the end so we did not stay to browse on our own

Worth every penny!

Penelope was an amazing guide. She knew so much about each artist and added greatly to our experience. I’d highly recommend her and the company for future visits. A+
