Her insights encouraged us to look beyond the surface and explore the stories that each piece held.

our Personalized Louvre Experience with Flavia

Our guide Flavia, was an absolute delight. Her personalized approach made the tour feel like a conversation with an old friend, rather than a traditional guided experience.

Be aware-you will be left without a tour!

Do not book with this agency! They canceled on us without even an attempt for an apology or explanation and left us scrambling for alternatives less than 24 hours before our scheduled tour which we had booked over three months in advance. Tripadvisor needs to do a better job monitoring unreliable offerings.

Cancelled 1.5 hours before the tour

Received a cancellation around an hour before the tour - we had already walked towards the tour when we realized I received an email with cancellation (no details as to why). Louvre tickets were generally sold out and this means we can’t fit a louvre tour this trip, which is disappointing.

Disappointed in lack of compassion for first-time travels to Paris.

Our experience was not good at all. We went to the location that we thought we were supposed to meet at and had our data on our phones so that we could be contacted if needed. We circled for over an hour, only to not find the tour guide. Apparently, we had issues with our Sim card data that we were not aware of until we tried to figure out why we did not receive a phone call from the tour guide. This was not a cheap excursion, and we honestly tried to do our best to find the guide. I submitted a refund request and was denied the refund more than once. Even after telling them about our struggles. Due to the NO REFUND we were not able to afford to go to the Louve Museum. I would have been happy if they would have at least meet us half way on the refund but instead I was belittled by their response "It would very unlikely that only 35 people who attended our tours on this day saw our flags, except YOU!" Seriously, not heart in Paris...

Don’t miss out on this semi-private highlight tour.

The Louvre can be an intimidating place, so I highly recommend a guided tour, and Melina did not disappoint. As an art history graduate she had an in-depth knowledge of all the key works in the Museum. Her personable manner made the tour extremely relaxed and enjoyable. We had some extra time so she extended beyond the set tour hours to show us some hidden “gems”. She was open to various questions and discussions about the pieces and even offered to take family photos along the way so as not to miss out on the great moments. A very memorable experience!

Blerta is a wonderful tour guide!!

Blerta was a wonderful tour guide! She was charming and funny. You could tell that she had a lot of art knowledge. She created a wonderful group atmosphere.

Spectacular tour

Mindy’s tour was fantastic! She easily shared her depth of knowledge in a way that our entire family could understand, including my teenagers. She kept them engaged, asking them questions throughout her presentation. Not only was she knowledgeable, she truly appreciated the beauty of the art she was sharing with us and the history of the Louvre itself. She made each of the pieces she showed us seem like special treasures by emphasizing their unique qualities and their significance in art history. This tour is a great way to see the highlights of a HUGE museum in a short period of time.

My best Louvre experience

Our guide was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable! She moved us through a packed museum with ease. My best experience ever there.

We loved our private...

We loved our private tour. Our guide was amazing! We had a wonderful experience at the Louve Museum, thanks to her expertise and ability to highlight what we were interested in looking at. Highly recommend !

Splendid Experience and Knowledgeable guide

Vivian was an incredible guide. Asides her knowledge we particularly appreciated her patience allowing us walk at a convenient pace and even offered that we sit and rest while she shared very insightful information about the art. I completely will not do this otherwise and we were grateful to have a guide to manoeuvre the museum.

No show

We arrived 40 minutes early and never found the tour guide. We found the other members of the group, but no guide. My wife waited her whole life for this tour and left in tears. Horrible experience.

Tour with Wei

My fiance and I really enjoyed our time with Wei who made everything as easy as possible and got us right in to see the best pieces of the Louvre. There were 8 of us in the group. He gave us a lot of cool and interesting information and was very nice, we also had earbuds which helped as the place was packed, I am so glad we did this semi private tour!

First time at The Louvre

Our tour guide, Wei, was friendly, informative, and patient. He made our first time in Paris a pleasant and memorable experience.

Fantastic Trip to the Louvre

We loved our tour of the Louvre. Our guide was fantastic. Her passion for the art made each piece more interesting. Our teenage boys stayed engaged listening to her describe the art, she brought it to life for them. It was the perfect way to see the highlights of the Louvre as a family.

Wonderful

My husband and I toured with our 13 year old granddaughter. Our guide, Malina, was knowledgeable and accommodating and we all left feeling as if we had learned a lot.

Expat was super great to...

Expat was super great to work with. Directions for meeting point ere excellent. Tour group was extremely communicative. Vivian - our person guide inside the Louvre was great. She worked hard to engage with my teenager and keep her interested as well. Great experience!

A Nice Day at the Museum

We had originally signed up for a private tour but were presented with an option to either rebook or do a semi-private tour - we chose to do a semi-private tour and it was great - there were only 6 of us in our group so it wasn't overwhelming - our guide, Wei, was very knowledgeable and personable - much appreciated was how he worked hard to keep track of us all in the chaos that is the Louvre - even more appreciated was the partial refund for our tour that was already being processed by the end of the day of our tour!!

Absolutely Worth every Penny

Our guide Melina was a great guide! We were chatting with our boys and they mentioned it again, they could feel her passion for art and it helped them enjoy the Louvre. We saw the museum from a whole other perspective that we wouldn’t have been able to do without a guide. She also took us to the apartments of Napoleon which is something a lot of people miss out on. Thank you and I highly recommend this tour.

Not worth it—terrible experience.

Audio devices were low quality. Therefore it was difficult to hear. It felt like the guide read through a memorized script. She was wearing a mask and constantly breathing into the mic, which also made it difficult to hear. We actually made an excuse to the guide and left midway through. We toured the rest of the museum on our own.

Louvre Semi Private tour...reduces the stress of trying to see the largest museum in the world

The operator was very friendly and responded promptly to all communication. Our guide was easy to find. Our guide was great, she brought insight and details about the most famous pieces of art. She also navigated the crowed masterfully and made sure the whole group was able to get to the front of each piece of art. Very personable, knowledgeable, and informative. Highly recommend this tour, especially if it's your first fist.

Our tour guide was very...

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. We were touring with my elderly parents that struggled with all the steps. Our guide was very patient and stressed that it was OK to take our time and let my parents sit and rest.

Save yourself a $100 and do it on your own

The Louvre is an exquisite museum although very crowded. Our guide was nice and knowledgeable. She did not seem well although she did wear a mask for part of the time. We had Vox headsets with only one ear piece for the right ear. It was very difficult to hear with the crowd. Do your research and save some $$$.

Highlights of the Louvre

Melina was amazing! She did an incredible job of navigating us all through the busy museum, making sure we had great views of everything while showing us some wonderful highlights and explaining the history and symbolism of the art. The small group size was really excellent.

Tour with Melina

Melina was amazing! Very knowledgeable and very friendly. She made our 8yo son's very anticipated visit to Louvre a memorable one!!

Perfect Lourve Tour

Our guide, Melina, was fabulous. She was extremely knowledgeable and made it very interesting Would thoroughly recommend

Wei was an excellent...

Wei was an excellent guide. We felt this was the best way to see the Louvre and the best money spent on our trip.

Great Art History Tour

This was an excellent tour!! Our guide showed us some great works of art and gave us the backstory behind the pieces. She made it all come to life. This was the highlight of our trip to Paris. I highly recommend this tour!!

Semi Private Tour worth the $$$

Worth it! This is the most efficient way to see the louvre. You skip the line for the mobs waiting for tickets and entrance. You also get to focus your time on the most interesting pieces in chronological order giving you a more fulfilling experience. Melina was a terrific guide and challenges you to look past the visual beauty and question the artist intentions and emotions they are trying to invoke while tying it to the context both the pieces time period as well as the overall artistic evolution. She was so thorough and knowledgeable. Even spent a little additional time with us so we could be sure to see the mummy!

Will was an Incredible guide

William, our guide was a British genius! His knowledge of the French culture and history of the Louvre museum was incredible. We were both fascinated by his passion for art, which made us feel even more connected to it. The fast entrance was very pleasant, as we did not have to wait in line. We will book again when next we come to Paris, thank you!

Great friendly guide, no lines!

Great Guide. Avi was friendly and knowledgeable, a fun and low stress visit. Great for kids and adults alike and skip line tickets were terrific.
