Our guide Alexandra was very knowledgeable about the Louvre and its history. She took us to all the popular artwork and took her time to answer all our questions. We were lucky to be a small group by chance. We had headphones so could hear her even from the other side of the room if you wondered off a bit. Some guides from other companies didn't seem to have this and had to raise their voices. I would definitely recommend this!! The museum is very big and without a good guide, I think most people will get quite lost.

Ticketing was lightning fast, very simple, very detailed. Meet up was as expected, maybe a pic of the guide might be useful, or a hat, to help identify them...walking up to randoms... The tour was excellent, avoid most of the queues, got to all the most amazing pieces very quickly with excellent explanation and knowledge from our guide. Thoroughly recommend it for a first time, or only visit to the Louvre...

The guide Julian was perfect. He knew the best places to see the works of art, showing us the main ones in each gallery, including the Mona Lisa, which we had a perfect view of. He passed on his knowledge of Greek and Roman Renaissance art and Italian and French paintings. I was very satisfied with the approximately three-hour tour.

    The visit to the museum was optimal, right from the (priority) entrance, it allowed us to skip the endless line that had already been created (I recommend visiting the museum in the early hours of the morning), also our guide, prepared, friendly and helpful during his exposition. The museum needs no comment.

    Professional guided tour with detailed explanations and background information. Including the building (Louvre), Greek antiquity and gods, painting techniques and, of course, da Vinci. Art historical contexts were pointed out. The only thing to complain about was the organization: the meeting point was easy to find, but it was a bit cramped on the sidewalk in front of the store. And then the Louvre is very well visited (the Monna up close? Forget it) and it is therefore often noisy, but that is not at the discretion of the organizer.
  • Embark on this carefully curated 2 to 3-hour guided tour (English, French, Spanish, and German) of the Louvre and walk through the world’s most expansive treasure trove of art.
