Super tour guide Miriam. She lives and loves art and history and engages her group really well. I honestly couldn't imagine it any better. Huge praise 👍

Very nice and interesting tour, lots of great information, and a good selection of exhibits. Only the meeting point, as someone with slight walking difficulties, I felt was not well chosen. A longer walk to the meeting point, waiting there next to a very noisy construction site, then walking back the same way to reach the entrance.

Appreciated the smaller group and our guide was knowledgeable and kept things moving along. She got us close to the Mona Lisa while not dismissing the other art in that gallery.

The tour was very professional. Bernadette was a knowledgeable tour guide whose extensive experience was obvious. She had a wealth of knowledge and answered every question with genuine interest and joy. She also expressed her fun, delight, and amazement at the artists' work. She enthusiastically showed us the highlights and gave us tips for the rest of our time in the Louvre. All in all, a super tour!!!

We were only 4 people. The guide was great. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time to take everything in. We didn't miss out on the highlights of the Louvre (actually, all the art is a highlight in itself). It is definitely worth a visit! If you are German and don't understand or speak English or French, you should definitely book the tour in German. N. Dambor

The guided tour and the guide's commentary—on my own, I wouldn't have known where to go. The guide was pleasant and gave us plenty of details about the history of the artworks. Vladimir is very professional, and his commentary is insightful and informative.
