Our guide, Eduardo was knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging. He made what would have been an overwhelming experience on our own into a thoroughly enjoyable one. We learned a lot and and are inspired to return to learn more, especially with Eduardo. Thank you.
Lee was totally engaging, enthusiastic and enjoyable to follow around and listen to — we learned so much which we talked about after the tour and with others. He spoke clearly and concisely which helped my wife who is not a native English speaker. We were both impressed and delighted with the Friday evening tour.
I had Adrien as my guide and he was AMAZING. The tour and all the details he covered was just perfect. It didn’t drag at all, great in terms of pacing. He also has this enthusiasm and passion that makes you want to take an interest in all the paintings and it’s historical background. I would highly recommend him!
Thomas was a fabulous guide. He was informative and interesting. We enjoyed our Louvre tour very much!
Great guide. So much better of an experience with an expert to share so much insight.
Sergio was the best! Very knowledgeable, friendly and funny. We'll grab another tour of the Louvre with him when we return to Paris.
We did the Babylon tour with Fabian and the tour was fabulous (Fabulous Fabian)! Our tour guide was so knowledgeable about the Louvre, all of the exhibits and the short cuts to see some of the wonderful art and statues. Fabian was patient, answered all of our questions and was able to provide deep explanations and understanding of the art and background. He was one of the best tour guides we have ever had (and we have done a lot of tours) and we highly recommend Fabian.
We visited the Louvre while on a short trip to Paris. Our tour guide Lili was AMAZING! She was very knowledgeable and made the whole experience unforgettable. We saw key pieces such as the Mona Lisa, Psyche Revived by Cupid’s Kiss, Venus De Milo, and Liberty Leading the People to name a few. All pieces had an intriguing story and Lili helped us understand the meaning behind each piece. We have a whole new appreciation for art. We feel that we got more than what we paid for. Definitely would recommend booking with Lili. She made our first visit to the Louvre magical and unforgettable.
Do yourself a favor if you can get Fabian as your tour guide do it he was great.
Marcel was an excellent guide. He had good insight and great ability to get us where we needed to be.
We had an absolutely wonderful experience touring the Louvre with our guide. Their knowledge of the museum, its history, and the incredible works of art was exceptional. They brought the paintings and sculptures to life with fascinating stories and insights that we never would have discovered on our own
Our guide Pierre was amazing. My wife and I had the best time and learned so many things thanks to Pierre. I would recommend this tour and Pierre for your next tour.
Anatole was charming and informative. He made the louvre come alive in the short time we had. Highly recommend him!
Captivating. He maneuvered us with ease through the crowds and had extremely helpful hints for the best angles to view the pieces. We would book with him anywhere.
Great way to see the Louvre. If you try to go by yourself unless you have a strong background in art history, you will likely miss the highlights. This tour covered everything we wanted to see and then some. Also got to skip the line! You appreciate French history and take in the sights better!
Manu was amazing and very informative. This tour is a must do if you are in Paris what a site to see.
Hugo was an amazing tour guide - I learned much more than I expected. It wasn't just about the art, but the history, themes, and humanity it all conveys. He was an amazing, engaging teacher, a ton of fun, and made the whole visit MUCH less overwhelming than if I had attempted it alone. I felt like I got to participate in a story in the best way possible. Definitely recommend going with the smaller tour size in such a massive museum - makes the whole thing much more interactive and easier to follow.
Pascale was extremely knowledgeable and navigated us well through the Louvre! Highly recommended if you want a well organized and dependable tour!
It was incredible! Manu was wonderful and so knowledgeable! It was very entertaining and interesting and the crowds were not horrible.
Fantastic tour. Amazing combination of the highlights, hidden gems, and interests of our small group!
Our guide was easy to understand and gave us the details we needed to appreciate the art work. He encouraged us to ask questions also.
The Louvre is amazing and we avoided most of the crowds by going in the evening. Our guide, Manu, was fantastic!! He made everything much more interesting and we learned so much from him!!
I highly recommend this tour as it really does avoid the crowds. You have plenty of time to see the major pieces and the guide (Nancy in our case) provided details to make everything meaningful. Virtually no wait at the Mona Lisa and no waiting anywhere else. Our guide Nancy was outstanding!
Adrien was a wonderful tour guide. I’ve always wanted to see the Louvre and with Adrien I got an entertaining lesson in French History through art. I appreciate his in-depth knowledge and quick wit that made the tour just delightful.
Our guide Tina was excellent. Also the reminders and detail where to meet from Viator provided us with a lot of information. The email contact directly with our tour guide was a nice touch.
we loved this experience! Our guide, Adrian, met us at the exact spot, took us through the Louvre and taught us so much about French history, the art, and the artists. He was personable, educational, and so entertaining. His passion for the museum was evident in every word. I highly recommend this trip and hope you get Adrian, one of the best guides I’ve had in my travels and 66 years.
This was an excellent way to see the Louvre. We were able to see the highlights without being overwhelmed and our guide Monika was not only knowledgeable but also super efficient. Highly recommend!
Our guide Liliana was excellent , she absolutely knew the history and explained in details about all the things we saw in the louve.
We had a great tour with our guide Veronica, who told us many interesting, informative and amusing stories about the art works and helped us skip the lines.
Maura was a great guide - very personable and knowledgeable. Would recommend doing this small tour as opposed to the bigger (12-20 persons) tour. Easier to follow along, get close to the works of art, and be able to hear easily and ask questions. Perfect length of time as we got to see the top 10 and being in the evening made it less crowded and hectic. Highly recommended!
Julien was an incredible Louvre guide! His knowledge of the museum and its history is next level. He gave real context for every piece instead of just reciting dates, and made it genuinely fascinating. He also kept our group together the whole time so no one got lost in that maze of a museum. He even took a couple photos of us! Absolutely worth it. Highly recommend asking for him.
Emmanuel was friendly and knowledgeable! We would go again!
Francesca was absolutely delightful. Her knowledge of art and the Louvre was encyclopedic yet she made the tour entertaining. If she was a professor, I’d take all her classes.
Sergio was write on time at the exact meet up spot. He was very enthusiastic and informative about everything the Louvre has to see. You could tell he was passionate about what he was talking about. Would recommend Sergio!
This was such a great experience for my family and I. François was informative and knowledgeable about all art and history through the ages. My two children even enjoyed this experience and he made them feel included and excited about history, art, and cultures of the world. I highly recommend this tour-especially with François. He was excellent!!!
Joe was excellent! Very knowledgeable and entertaining.
Paloma was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and we really enjoyed it
Francois V made the museum come alive. We covered so much history and thoroughly enjoyed our time.
Fantastic tour! Our guide, Manu, was knowledgeable, kind, and relatable to my family! I highly recommend the tour!
Joe was amazing, so authentic in his love for what he does and his descriptions of how art has developed!
Anais was very knowledgeable on both art and history and was able to flex what she showed us based on our preferences and feedback. She is extremely personable. Really enjoyed the tour!
Our tour guide Agustina Gutierrez Dacal was wonderful she was patient - my mother is elderly and she got to see all the highlights in the museum. We were told about the history of all the art. Wonderful experience we will always remember.
Recommend a guided tour by Miriam. She was exceptionally knowledgeable.
Very knowledgeable and personable guide. Miriam It goes by quickly. There is so much to see
We did the private guided tour with Fabien. He was great. Very informative lot of history explained. 10/10 recommend
Alban was a wonderful tour guide. He made a very overwhelming museum seem approachable by leading us to some of the most interesting pieces. He did a great job explaining things and the history and stories behind each one. He was funny and great with our kids, 11 and 14. Highly recommend.
Our tour was on June 25. The tour of the Louvre exceeded our expectations. My family of 4 learned so much from our tour guide, Ivana. Ivana was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the history surrounding the Louvre and everything within. She kept our 15 year old daughter and 18 year old son engaged throughout the tour. I really enjoyed how she incorporated modern interpretation to historical pieces. The day after the tour, each member of the family shared what they enjoyed most at the Louvre. Each was different from the other but the common denominator among them was Ivana’s explanation of each piece of art. Thank you for giving us wonderful memories of our time at the Louvre.
Very informative. Hit the popular attractions and some of the lesser known but interesting items as well. Ana was an excellent guide and knows the museum and history well.
Juan R was an awesome tour guide. He clearly knows his history and everything about the Louvre. Highly recommend his tour on a Friday evening at 5pm. Less crowded too.
