Description

With a maximum of six people per group, you are guaranteed a nearly private experience! This tour aims to answer the questions that a typical tour would not. Have you ever wondered why Greek and Roman sculptures are so poorly endowed or what really made the Mona Lisa so famous? Art has always pushed the boundaries of society and artists are often inspired by sex, scandals, and the tumultuous relationships that surround them.  No topic is off-limits and questions you may have been perhaps too polite to ask will be answered. With such a vast collection of art work at the Louvre there is bound to be a scandal or two! Please note, this tour is for people eighteen or older. Please contact us if you would like us to make an exception.

We were with a student group with Adam at the Louvre and Notre Dame! It was great! The students were excited. When in Paris, only with Adam! We are Team ADAM!

The most rewarding part of my trip to Paris

My best friend and I took this tour with Adam, and I cannot recommend it enough. The Louvre is giant, and all of its wonders cannot be appreciated in one day or trip, but with Adam, in two and a half hours, I feel like we got a comprehensive tour of the Louvre's most impactful works. We discussed the Louvre's history, Mesopotamian sculptures, Hammurabi's Code, French neo-classical paintings, Da Vinci's works, Greek vs. Roman sculpture, Napoleon's quartiers and more! This was more than I was able to see and grasp the importance of when visiting the Louvre on my own last year, where I spent the whole day in the museum, marveling at the art but not quite understanding the history or meaning of most of the works. Not only was the amount of art we saw impressive, but Adam supplied us with the historical context we needed to better understand the works and their importance to their time period and as well as their parallels to modern day. This tour was very interactive, and by asking us questions about what we knew about the Louvre or some of the time periods we discussed (which in my case, was not much at all), he met us at our level of understanding and explained things very clearly and thoughtfully. Adam was also SO engaging with witty remarks, questions, and lots of inspirational food for thought about how humans have treated art, law, sexuality, knowledge and change. On the tour, I noticed other museum goers often listening in to our conversations, which I think is a testament to how interesting and rewarding this tour was! Book it!

Fun and unique way to see the Louvre!

We had a great tour. The pace was perfect, not to slow as we felt like we did so much but just enough time where with each stop we learned interesting tidbits that felt unique and different than most museum tours. Eduardo was awesome! So nice, full of energy and easy to talk to. Really interesting way to experience the Louvre.

Best tour of France

Our tour of the louvre was absolutely outstanding, thanks to our incredible guide. His intelligence, knowledge in personality brought the artwork to life. He had a wonderful way of keeping everybody interested and involved throughout the tour. It was truly one of the highlights of our trip. Wish we could’ve had him for all of our tours. I cannot recommend him enough

Everything we wanted to know: Sex + Scandals.

This tour was absolutely amazing! It was so intimate and easy to follow. Violette was our guide and she was so personable and made the whole experience amazing. Typically going to a museum as massive as the Louvre can be overwhelming, and she was able to point out some of the major historical pieces as well as some scandals attached to it. It not only made the tour and Louvre experience unique, but also memorable. 10/10 would recommend. And I would use them again, next time I’m in Paris.

Operator response

Dear Kevin, Thank-you for booking one of our favourite tours (who doesn't like hearing about scandals?) and for taking time out of your schedule to leave such a nice review. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your tour with Violette and hope to guide you again in the future! You can always request Violette via e-mail if you wish to have her again! Take care! Fat Cat Tours

See the Louvre with the right guide

I booked this tour for a mom and daughter trip. The guide Lili was punctual, she communicated with me and my clients. My clients said they could have never seen the Louvre without Lili. She was a wealth of knowledge. Fat Cat tours and Lili delivered!! Book them asap. They were great!

Violette was the BEST tour guide anyone could ask for. She had so much knowledge, insight, humor, and kindness to offer. She went above and beyond to make sure we had the best tour. She is fantastic and the tour was more than we could have ever hoped for.

BEST way to see the Louvre!!!

The best! Our guide ,Florence, was exceptional. She was so knowledgeable about the Louvre and kept us engaged, learning, and enjoying the whole time! We saw and learned so much during our tour - no way could we have done that in a large tour group. I’m so glad we saw the Louvre this way. And I’m so glad Florence was our guide. I feel Florence and I became friends while on the tour, and if I get back to Paris again, I hope to visit some other museums with her! (My husband who is not really interested in art, enjoyed the tour as Florence was able to engage him with some of history of the Lourve.)

Operator response

Dear Rebecca, We cannot thank you enough for this amazing review. We are so glad you loved Florence and could connect with her during your tour. We hope to have the pleasure to see you again soon in Paris! Warmly, Fat Cat Tours

Great way to see the Louvre!

My son and I really enjoyed our tour with Ivana! It was one of our favorite activities in Paris this past weekend. Both of us had never visited the Louvre and Ivana made the experience enjoyable and approachable. We learned a ton and enjoyed every minute of it. I 100% recommend this tour.

Operator response
