Louvre unreliable open time - our time was 9:30; guide peaked 3 of group 5 min late due to traffic. Then we all had to wait in line until at least 10:30 for Louvre to open. Guide / tourwas only ok - 98% of us left to go on our own before last exhibit. Think maybe audio tour would have been more worth while.

Very good experience. Our guide, Gaetano, gave a good brief round up of the masterpieces, together with the main points of the Louvre.

Clear instructions on where to meet. Great guide! A little costly, but worth it to skip the line Would recommend.

It was effortless and pleasant with direct access to the Mona Lisa. The Louvre is massive (to say the least) and confusing even with a map. This is the perfect way to see the most visited area.

The guide was excellent and very easy to enter the museum. No lines. Recomendado. Hablaba español tambien

Amazing. Our guide made this massive museum easy. You know you hit the high points when all the art displayed in the gift shop is exactly what you saw. She was very attentive and knowledgeable. Well worth it and the only way to see the museum.

If you are looking for a chance to skip the lines to the Louvre this is a perfect tour. We did the 8:45 so we got in just as it opened and they gave us information and a short tour of the biggest attractions with an audio for some of the other areas. We were able to spend as much time as we wanted after the Mona Lisa. Perfect to go at your own speed. Highly recommend,

Great orientation of the museum. Our visit was after the jewel heist do our guide gathered agreement on what to see instead.

Florence, our guide, was excellent! She provided us a ton of information regarding the museum itself and of course, she showed us the "highlight pieces" as well.
