This Museum was so much better than the Louvre, our guide gave us a history of art during this period, getting the kids to guess the art styles and learn about the artists.
Dominique was very knowledgeable. We were a family of four including our 13-year-old son and 10 year-old daughter, and she did a great job of touching on the things they learned the day before at the Louvre and then expanding on them. When my husband remarked that he’d love to see Gauguin, she immediately pivoted to include that exhibit thereby modifying the rest of the tour. We all walked away having learned new things about the Museum itself, the Impressionist style, and many works of art.
Agathe was a super guide for our family. She was not only very knowledgeable, but she also had a fun and energetic personality. She focused a lot of her attention on our 10 yr old, but explained everything in a way that was interesting for the adults as well. I highly recommend Agathe.
We had the most wonderful tour experience with our kids! Our tour guide Helene was clearly a passionate art history professional. She was also friendly, kind and energetic, and explained the art in a kid-friendly way. We had fun and learned a lot in the 2 hours we had with her. Highly recommend!

We went to the highlights and also understood more about France m’s history through its art. She was also flexible and resourceful as we had issues coming on time because 2 of o
Tatiana was an amazing guide with an extensive knowledge of art history. Her love for art clearly shows through in her engaging style. She kept my daughter (8yo) entertained, and we learned so much! I absolutely recommend her and this tour for those who want to visit the Orsay with children.
We had an amazing tour with Anna - she did a terrific job sharing the story of the museum and the incredible works of art.
