Fast paced but worth it!!

Juan was an amazing guide! Very knowledgeable of history as well as the important pieces of artwork. Of course, it was a fast tour and you couldn’t possibly see everything but Juan did a great job of summarizing and getting us to the best places for pictures! Highly recommend this tour and Juan as the tour guide!

The Louvre with Monty

Monty was a very informative and very helpful guide for this tour. His incredible knowledge of the history of France, the Louvre and its Kings and other occupiers was essential to understanding the pieces in the gallery. He was very accommodating for the whole group. I would strongly recommend him as a tour guide.

Monty Made the Louvre Come to Life

Monty was an exceptional guide for our visit to the Louvre museum. He is incredibly knowledgeable and brought the entire experience to life in a way that was both engaging and memorable. What stood out was how interactive he made the tour, he asked thoughtful questions and made sure everyone was involved, which kept the group engaged from start to finish. Monty is not only knowledgeable, but also genuinely kind and approachable. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone planning a future Louvre tour.

Fast paced, educational, eye-opening.

NEA TANDINI was passionate and enthusiastic with sharing her knowledge of art history. We were visiting only 2.5 days and wanted to get the most out of our visit. We got so much more with Nea and enjoyed her wealth of knowledge. She shared not only the description of her favorite pieces but also the story behind it.

Operator response

Thank you for such a thoughtful review! We’re thrilled Nea made your Louvre visit so meaningful and helped you make the most of your time in Paris. We truly appreciate your kind words.

Do not book with this company

Do not book with this agency. They are not serious, after paying 130€ per person for the guided tour we went on the day and time they said. They let us through the security checkpoints at the Louvre and before we could leave with the group they told us that we could no longer enter because they had made a mistake in counting the number of people. They made us phone different people to ask anyway the possibility to enter but they told us that it was not possible. We therefore asked to be reimbursed but they did not reply. Unprofessional.
