Will take tour again...when I return - Our tour guide was great and knowledgeable. Finding the meet up place was easy and clear. Would recommend to anyone. The tour is just a taste of the Louvre but it hits the well known pieces.

PERFECT LOUVRE TOUR - Our tour guide Violette was very knowledgable, well spoken and the most understandable English speaking guide of our visit to Paris. The length of the tour was just right so as to not be overwhelming. If I ever make it back to Paris I will take another one your Louvre tours and will definitely recommend it to friends.

Antoine was our guide,... - Antoine was our guide, who made this tour so worthwhile. We visited all the important pieces and he provided the important history and descriptions of each piece. Doing the tour for the closing was also great as there were less people than usual. Highly recommend as an excellent way to acquaint yourself with the highlights of the Louvre.

We were duped. - What a scam. Supposed to be “15 minutes of quiet time with the Mona Lisa at closing time” when everyone else is in the process of exiting. Our guide, Nazli, had us there before 5:30 and it was packed shoulder to shoulder and probably 50 deep. In addition to this she took us along the left side, basically pushing people aside, where museum employees were yelling at us to keep moving. At most we had 30 seconds to see and photograph the painting. The rest of the tour was so so as it was difficult to hear through the earpiece due to poor acoustics. A pair of earbuds would be better. Even the guide had cotton in one ear. The guide was certainly knowledgeable but trying to keep up with her was like trying to catch a toddler running through the mall. We have used Walks before and have been pleased. After this we will probably reconsider.
