I believe most people will look to take this package for the Louvre tickets, which are kinda impossible to get a day before your visit in this high-volume, reservation-only peak season. I booked this package as a last-ditch attempt to get in, and although I had to follow up for over an hour before the museum visit time, I actually did to get tickets! For that, I will always give Headout its due props. The cruise should not be slept on, either - it is a great experience and the flexibility is really cool! In the summers, I recommend picking up the 8:30 cruise if you want to see the Eiffel light up in front of your eyes. All in all, you get what you pay for, and this is actually one of the better packages available on the website!

Headout saved me. I longed to visit the Louvre Museum but unfortunately the tickets at the official website had run out, today was my last day of vacation and I would return to Italy disappointed. I had lost all hope but then as if by magic thanks to Headout I received the tickets and was also able to take a ride on the boat. At first, I was scared since I had read some negative reviews and so I thought it was a scam since after payment the tickets did not arrive right away. I didn't sleep all night but as if by magic this morning , at eight o'clock , I received my tickets by email and was able to visit the museum . So thank you

The queue was short as it was a timed visit. The map wasn't easy to navigate but was somewhat helpful. There was no way we could see everything so we did as much as possible and it was a great experience. Not all the paintings and art works had an audio guide recording which I think wouldn't be difficult to add to the app even few lines would be better than nothing. One last thing, I don't understand why the tickets arrived very late the night before the visit date. Despite the customer service reassuring me that it would come but I was still nervous about it. For future I suggest that you send them at least 48-72 hours in advance for the peace of mind of customers.

I specifically went to see the Couture exhibition and stayed to see many beloved works of art, and have a bit of lunch. Venus de Milo, Winged Victory of Samothrace, the recently restored portrait of Anne of Cleves by Hans Holbein the Younger, the epic series of Rubens 24 paintings for Queen Marie, and of course, La Joconda.

The eternal queuing despite having a reservation and a ticket is more than annoying. In the Louvre it spreads out a little after you have passed the second, correct ticket control. For Mona Lisa, plan to queue for another half an hour to an hour. The mass of people and abundance of exhibits is overwhelming - you need several days to take a cursory look at "everything".

Huge and beautiful museum with dedicated rooms. Beautiful also the integration of themed haute couture creations. Too bad about the Mona Lisa room not well managed and too much confusion Very kind and knowledgeable hostess who handed us the tickets and excellent queue jumping

I was the third person to arrive at the museum, but we had to wait a long time, but it was worth it because it was a teenage dream to visit the museum and the French paintings - I have no words to describe the grandeur of such a work of art - and the ceilings left me open-mouthed.
