Nancy B. Was the most delightful and informative guide for these museums. - We had Nancy B as our tour guide for both the Louvre and the Orse museums. She was absolutely amazing and full of energy throughout both tours. Her background in art history lended itself beautifully to our tour and enhanced our knowledge of what we were experiencing. She was friendly, engaging, andapproachable. Questions were no problem and never threw her off.

Incredible Tour! - This was such a great way to experience the Louvre and the Musée D’Orsay; our guide Miriam was extremely knowledgeable about all of the art as well as the history of the museums. With her guidance we were able to see everything we wanted without getting lost or having to wait in any lines. She was also very nice and accommodating when a member of my party needed a longer break in between tours; she went above and beyond to make sure we got the experience that we paid for. I would definitely tour with Miriam again!

Great experience with a wonderful, knowledgeable guide - Our guide Flo was very knowledgeable and informative. He answered all our questions and knew all the answers. Not only did he know a great deal about art but he also knew a lot about French and Italian history. We would definitely recommend this tour and this guide.

The only way to experience Louvre - It was my second visit to Louvre and it was just perfect. From the ease of booking the tour, consistent and competent communication from the organizers to our amazing guide - Paloma, everything was just right. Paloma kept us entertained, informed, and eager to learn. Previous time I spent many hours at the Louvre, and remember very little. With Paloma I felt like we are participating in an exciting documentary, in which you connect the dots and discover layers and layers of stories you never suspected existed. Thank you for taking us back to Mesopotamia section, Paloma. What a discovery!

Great time with Julien - Julien was fantastic! I've done the museum on my own before and never had such a great experience. I feel like we saw secret things I would have never even known were there. Great tips for seeing the popular things as well.

Great day of touring the Louvre. Our group of 4 had a wonderful day with Anaïs! - Toured the Louvre with Anaïs, our guide, and had a wonderful time. She was educated as an artist, and she presented the tour as both a guide (covering all the key areas of the Louvre) and describing the art from an artists perspective. It was a great way to spend our time in the Louvre. I highly recommend Anaïs!

Louvre tour experience - This was definitely worth the spend! Paloma was incredibly knowledgeable, efficient with our time and brilliant with my 8 year old daughter. It was far more than a Mona Lisa tour: Paloma was insightful, helped us to learn and understand what to look for and had a great personality to make it stick. She had also secured a locker for us to leave bags in, and made getting through security a breeze!

Great tour of the Louvre - Our guide Valerie was terrific. She asked the 6 of us our preferences before heading out and tailored the tour accordingly. Her knowledge of everything we visited was exceptional. We decided she must have been an art major as she went in depth (in a good way) on painting techniques. We bypassed the long lines outside and went right to security checks. The only time we ran into a waiting period was or course at the Mona Lisa. I recommend patience when you get to her room. It only took about 15 minutes to get to the front of the line to admire the piece and take pix.
