My Louvre Highlights tour with Seean was one of the best experiences of our trip. His passion for art, history, and engineering was contagious, and he had an incredible way of making each masterpiece feel personal and relevant. He somehow managed to make centuries-old paintings and sculptures fascinating—even for those of us who didn’t major in art history! And yes, we finally understood why everyone crowds around the Mona Lisa. 😊 Thank you, Seean, for a perfect half-day filled with stories, insights, and plenty of “I never knew that!” moments. I left with a much deeper appreciation for the Louvre and memories I’ll never forget. Highly recommend!

Sabine was an absolutely fantastic tour guide! She was incredibly knowledgeable and brought the history and artwork of the Louvre to life with fascinating stories and insights. She kept the tour engaging from beginning to end and made such a huge museum feel easy to navigate. She was also so warm, patient, and family-friendly. She made our children feel included and kept them interested, which made the experience enjoyable for everyone.

Pretty so so I certainly would not recommend. We have done 10 tours so far through Italy and France and this was worst
The tour was interesting and fun, the art, the architecture and the history. Our guide, Monty, made it an enjoyable experience, with his knowledge of the artwork, the artists and the history of the Louvre itself. He was very engaging with my wife, happily being interested in the knowledge she had of some of the subjects. I would highly recommend the tour, especially with Monty as the guide.
