Wonderful! - Our guide, Ruth, was very knowledgeable and showed us all the top masterpieces. She gave us a quick, but grand, tour. We saw a lot in a little time. I can’t imagine going to the Louvre for the first time without a guide! Worth every penny!

Great way to get the history of the Louvre! - This was a three hour tour of the Louvre. We were there on the first day of the Olympic Games and figured it would be especially crowded so we went with a paid tour. Gaining access to the museum was smooth and we were able to bypass the long lines by being with an approved guide. Our guide Susu was well spoken and gave a great background of the history of the museum. She asked what highlights people wanted to see and took us to see them. Would definitely recommend for first time visitors because then you can stay and explore on your own. The only small glitch was that our confirmation said meet at the arc across from the pyramid and the group was waiting at the pyramid. However the guide texted us and gave directions.

Minnesotans see the Louvre! - Even though the venue was extremely crowded due to the Olympics and season, tour guide Favian ?sp, walked us through the entry and was prompt at the pick up point. She gave tidbits of information during the long line wait. Then, inside, there was a organized plan to give a historical review of the origin of the Louvre along with major selected art pieces with interesting detail. We were pleased and believe visiting at a less busy time would be ideal. However, we saw and heard many interesting things so were happy.
