We decided to book a Viator evening tour of the Louvre for 6 people during our recent visit to Paris. It is a 2 hour tour and allows you to see all of the highlights as well as focused visits to select other areas. Our guide, Nea, was fantastic. She showed us all of the highlights such as Venus and the Mona Lisa, but her knowledge of art and art history made the tour exceptionally good. She took us to locations and important pieces outside the normal tourist track and gave information on techniques, history, and meaning that we would never have learned otherwise. It’s expensive, but it was efficient, interesting, and entertaining and made the overwhelming Louvre much more approachable and meaningful, (plus you can stay to continue to wander and enjoy the museum on your own for a while afterwards). We cannot recommend this tour enough and if you go try very hard to get on one of Nea’s knowledgeable tours!
Nea was so knowledgeable and showed us many unique hidden gems in the museum. She was very kind, charismatic and funny as well. She really personalized the experience for my husband and I, as well as the other couple we were with. Nea made it feel like we were exploring the Louvre with an old friend. Absolutely wonderful time!
Great experience being guided by Paloma. She was very knowledgeable and brought the art works to life with her stories. The evening experience was not crowded which was very pleasant
Great way to see the highlights with art historian Sophia. Not too crowded and plenty of time at each work
Lili was a wonderful guide! Her passion for the art made a novice like me want to learn so much more. The Louvre was beautiful, and being in a small group, made it so much easier to get around! Highly recommend!
Victor was great - he had so much special knowledge about the art. And you can tell he really enjoyed himself during the tout
We had a fantastic tour of the Louvre with Sofia. She was incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic, sharing fascinating insights into the artworks and the history of the museum. Her friendly personality and genuine passion made the experience both engaging and enjoyable. Skipping the queues was a great bonus, and visiting when the museum was less crowded made the experience even better. Highly recommend this tour, particularly with Sofia as your guide!
Our guide Vincent was very knowledgeable and courteous.
I have been to this museum six times, this was the most informative and best experience that I have had.
We had an outstanding tour of the Louvre with out guide Sofia on a Friday tour. We've been before so this was a revisit of "the highlights of the highlights" as Sofia described it. She was an absolutely fantastic guide -- very knowledgeable, great sense of humor, pointing out things we might otherwise miss, and getting us to the best vantage spots for seeing the artwork. She was the best guide we have had in Paris, hands down! Thank you for an excellent experience!
Sophia is amazing!! So knowledgeable and fun. We had the best time.
Sofia was amazing. I learned an incredible amount of all the details of history of both the Louvre and art within. I highly recommend, you will not be disappointed!
Sofia was our guide and she really made this small group experience unforgettable . She was a great communicator with a deep knowledge and passion for art and art history, bringing the highlights of the Louvre to life. I would highly recommend Sofia and the night experience of the Louvre to anyone .
Lili was super sweet and engaging you could tell she loves her job. Would recommend!
Very knowledgeable tour guide and very enthusiastic
My wife and I toured the Louvre with a small group, guided by Sophie, an art historian. She was exceptional—her explanations were clear, engaging, and enriched with sharp, well‑timed humor. She illuminated the distinctions between artistic and sculptural styles across historical periods with a confidence that made the experience both educational and genuinely enjoyable. Sophie was prompt, professional, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and funny—an outstanding guide in every respect
Sofia was amazing. The information she provided, full of drama, energy, and passion about the arts brought everything to life.
This is a scam!! My wife booked us to tour the louvre with this guide. We paid in advance. We arrived extra early before 5 for a 5:30 tour. No tour guide showed up, 5 of the max 6 were waiting at the designated spot. We waited until 6:30 hoping that the guide was late, but the guide was a no show. We tried calling the walks numbers, both the US and European number, we got a message and put on hold for 20 minutes until the call was disconnected twice. There was no communication and they were unreachable. When we got back to our hotel my wife recived an email claiming that the tour was changed from 5:30 to 5:00. She had checked her email and had not received the change in time until after 5:00. We were waiting at the designated spot at 4:45 and there was no tour guide for walks tours. We met 3 other of the people who booked this tour also waiting, for a total of five of a max of six. So this tour company has taken $350 CAD from us as well as the other people believing they are going to have a tour only to be stood up. Michael
Sophia was awesome. Her knowledge of the art was exceptional. And her passion for the art was infectious. We enjoyed her tour immensely.
Would have been totally lost. Glad she made the choices - very good ones. Very friendly and professional.
Wonderful experience with Sofia. Very knowledgeable and enjoyable. Perfect guide.
Sabine was wonderful and amazing. Fabulous tour of the Louvre. Sabine was friendly, full of information, shared insights and funny anecdotes. I thought the evening “after hours” tour would be a little less crowded than the tour we had taken in the daytime. This was not the case. It was still very crowded with many people. Regardless, we enjoyed it!
Sofia made the experience magical We throughly enjoyed ourselves and learned a lot
Excellent tour guide, Xauo, who had enthusiasm and knowledge and great energy. The Louvre is a lot and doing it all in one trip is not possible, this was an excellent way to start the exploration while getting some major highlights, incudling the ever popular Mona Lisa.
The small group was very nice and our guide, Xiao, was knowledgeable and had positive energy. She engaged with all of us in the group, and kept the energy up which was appreciated in a hot crowded Louvre gallery! Thank you.
Great experience, great tour, 10/10 would recommend. Anne-Claire was amazing
Lili was amazing, she told us so much history and showed all of the best things. She made it enjoyable and funny and it was very worthwhile. 100% recommend!!
Juliette was extremely knowledgeable but not in a way you couldn’t understand. You could that she really understood the art and intricacies of the paintings. She had a wonderful demeanor and even offered extra time to our group.
Nea was the perfect tour guide!
I was somewhat disappointed with the tour guide. The audio device provided to help visitors hear the guide more clearly was not working, which made it difficult to move around and appreciate the paintings while listening to the explanations. In addition, the guide focused mainly on anecdotes and historical details about how the paintings and statues arrived at the museum, offering little artistic insight into the techniques, styles, or creative aspects of the works themselves. In hindsight, it would have been better to purchase a ticket with the audio guide instead.
Meeting the guide, entering the museum, the audio experience and the personalized entertaining stories told throughout the evening made it a five star review.
Ahmed was an excellent guide. He was very knowledgeable and efficient. He navigated around the crowds and kept us entertained the whole time
The six person evening tour at the Louvre was a great way to get a taste of what there is to see at the Louvre. The Louvre is massive in size and the collection is huge. Having a tour guide show you the highlights (like the Mona Lisa) but then also share other pieces of art with you was great. Our guide, Nea, is clearly someone who loves art and the Louvre collection. She shared this love with us and explained paintings that I would normally have just walked past. (I now have a much better understanding and appreciation of some of the religious art at the Louvre.) I enjoyed my evening and really appreciated Nea’s enthusiasm and knowledge.
Our guide was fantastic - expressive, knowledgeable, and engaging. Her enthusiasm for the curated paintings she shared made each one come alive.
I really like how the guide explained different aspects of the paintings she has shown us. I also appreciate her “acting flair” as it was more entertaining and kept me interested in her variation narrative. She was very knowledgeable and knew her art.
Our tour guide from Voyage locally seemed pretty good, but she did not have the required entrance tickets, so our Louvre Small Group Night Tour planned for my birthday in Paris was cancelled. Viator needs to find another tour company!
Nea did an great of job of hitting the highlights of the Louvre. My wife usually doesn't like museums, but Nea was so interesting and her energy was so infectious, that my wife really enjoyed it. Next time, we need to book Nea for like a 4-5 hour tour. That would be excellent.
Ann Claire was a perfect guide. She was personable, knowledgeable and humorous!
Our tour guide was knowledgeable and very informative. She was a great communicator that kept us all at her attention and focus. She was also funny. Highly recommend her and this tour. It over exceeded my expectations.
Excellent guide. Invaluable for seeing the highlights in limited amount of time. Interesting and engaging tour.
Juliette was fantastic, she was very knowledgeable about the art pieces and threw in jokes to keep the group entertained. The group size was perfect, Juliette kept us together and looked out for us finding us places to sit and looking out for new art pieces.
Ahmed was wonderful, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the pieces we saw. I was very impressed with this tour.
Ahmad was great! He went over all of the highlights of the Louvre and was very knowledgeable and funny! He made the visit interesting and fun. Would love to go back to the Louvre and have him show us more!
Juliet was very wonderful and so very knowledgeable. She was just a joy. My wife and I loved our whole tour and highly recommend it.
Martin was an exceptional host! He shared a ton of knowledge and the fun facts! Highly recommend!
She was excellent!!! We loved our experience
Excellent tour Anthony was a superb host - lot of shared knowledge about site we felt we learned a lot about Louvre we would never have known. Highly recommend!
Great knowledge of the history of the Louvre sculptures and art.
Anne-Claire was the perfect guide, showing us the highlights and offering her keen insight as an art historian.
