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.

    We chose the Louvre for the experience of visiting one of the world's greatest museums. The crowds...what can you do...Paris is popular. The visit was entirely mind-blowing, from the vast open viewing rooms to the exquisite craftsmanship of the halls,, floors and ceilings. However, like the announcements in the metro about pick-pockets, as we were walking up a flight of stairs, my wife was suddenly surprised when she felt someone behind her attempting to fiddle with her handbag. She stopped and turned around. I had no idea why she stopped. As she explained, the couple behind continued walking passed us. And in seconds they were gone. That was a lesson when in busy places: keep your handbag in front of you. Apart from that weird instance, we will visit the Louvre again. And the cost of tickets is an incentive to further explore the Louvre on our next visit to Paris. ...the visit: 9/10 ... a few photos

    The Louvre is really a museum to do in your life, plan the whole day because it is very very large, ideally you need several days. On the other hand, the information given by the headout site to enter the museum is erroneous, There's no need to go and find the hostess near the triumphal arch of the carrousel, we went from group to group until finally a guide told us that we could go directly to the museum in the basement to receive the audio guides 🙄. Enjoy your visit
