The tour of the Louvre was organized and informative and entertaining. It was a busy Monday morning and Hugo was an excellent tour guide. Thank you!

Siverine our guide was very knowledgeable. She made the tour very interactive and pleasant. The small group size was perfect to stay caught up once inside the Louvre because there are so many people. She provided the little speakers and headphone which made things so much easier to hear her presentations and explanations. Great activity.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience visiting the Louvre, and it was all thanks to our incredible tour guide. She was knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the art and history throughout the museum. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by the size of the Louvre, we felt completely immersed and guided with purpose. She shared fascinating stories and insights that we never would have learned on our own, and she navigated the museum efficiently so we could see the highlights without feeling rushed. Her enthusiasm truly brought the artwork to life. I highly recommend booking a guided tour when visiting the Louvre — it makes the experience so much richer and more meaningful. And if you can, definitely book with her. It was one of the best parts of our trip! Sorry, I can’t remember her name 😢

We had a wonderful experience touring the Louvre with Omar as our guide. We chose the smaller group tour, and we are so glad we did, it made the entire experience feel more personal and engaging. One detail we didn’t expect (but absolutely loved) was having a private space to store our jackets and access to private restrooms for our group upon entering. It was such a thoughtful touch and made everything feel seamless from the start. Omar was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, energetic and interactive throughout the tour. He did an excellent job highlighting the most important and fascinating pieces in the museum within the time we had, making the Louvre feel manageable rather than overwhelming. His passion and insight truly enhanced our visit. Omar was personable, knew the entire group by name just minutes into the tour, and took time to speak to each member of the group, making the tour feel friendly and intimate in the best way. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Thank you, Omar, for such a memorable experience!

It was fun and you see many of the highlights of the Louvre without the big lines that you have to go through even with a timed entry ticket

Taking a tour is the way to go! Le Louvre is too big. Let the professionals show you around, they are a wealth of knowledge.

We had Omar as our tour guide, and he was so well-versed in the art and the stories behind them! He made each person in the group feel recognized while making the tour fun and engaging. Besides the amazing tour, we also met some new friends (shout out McKenna). We would totally recommend booking with them! With love, Jill and Wendy

I had Omar as my tour guide, and he was absolutely fantastic in every single way. He was funny and knowledgeable and gave us much more information than anticipated. He was fantastic!

Natalia was an excellent guide. She deftly navigated a delay caused by striking workers and got us through the rest of the tour without a hitch.
