Great Tour! - The only way to see the Louvre in a reasonable amount of time is with a tour guide. Unfortunately, I cannot remember the name of our guide but she was great. In our 3 hour tour we were able to see the major attractions such as Venus de Milo and the Mona Lisa. We also learned so much about the history of the French monarchy. Our group had 20 people, small enough to easily follow our guide, and the headsets worked well to hear everything being said. I would highly recommend this tour!

Excellent tour! - This was an excellent experience. Perhaps lucky to have a very small group, our tour guide was personable, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. He was able to somewhat tailor the tour to the interests of our group and kept it interesting for tweens and adults alike. This was a great introduction to the Louvre and perfect for our limited available time - hitting lots of highlights in just 2 hours from start to finish.

Incredible Louvre experience!! - Melanie was incredibly knowledgeable and provided an incredible amount of history about the Louvre and history in general. We were a few minutes ate but I let them know 30 minutes before our tour time and she accommodated us and waited. I would highly recommend this tour. It would have taken my husband and I hours to cover the museum like she did. Don’t hesitate and book this one folks! She even took pictures of us. Her headphone set made hearing her commentary more meaningful.

The Louvre - We were not given enough information on where to meet our guid consequently we were late meeting our group. The tour does not start at closing time either, the Louvre closes at 21.30.

Grand grand masters! - An excellent introduction to The Louvre. Our guide was awesome, but navigating the crowds in the museum was crazy, even towards closing time. The end felt rushed, and there was no time to linger after the guided tour had ended. Highly recommend this, as a way of getting in quickly and covering some major works in a limited time frame.
