The tour was amazing and very in depth. The guide was not only very knowledgeable about the artwork in the Louvre but also about where to stand so we could see the works clearly as there were a lot of people in the same areas as us. Thank you!

Everything was great—enjoyable and exciting! The tour was expertly led. It was great not having to worry about tickets or stand in line. Even the restroom wasn't as crowded for groups :)!

    The storytelling. I loved how not only we were introduced to the history behind the louvre pieces, but also references tied to current days.

    Enjoyed Matt's sharing of info re the Louvre... unfortunately I have hearing aids so this type of device was not compatible with them...I a got headache almost immediately trying to use..I think you need to have better options for those that have hearing issues! We used valuable time getting organized ( getting devices, waiting at grp area for tickets, hearing devices etc) thought that could have been prepped prior so actually had more time with guide ( Matt) sharing his knowledge of the Louvre)
