The skip the line was worth the minimal additional cost! The line to enter was very very long! Easy meet up and escort to the Mona Lisa.

Amazing insightful tour of the museum. Was easy to find the guide and they were very informative and interactive with the group. A really lovely introduction to the museum as we had never been before. The time flew. Visitors should note that there will be crowds and there are some stairs too, however the guide was gracious in pacing the tour to suit older visitors.

This was perfect. Many people might think it was too fast but it was right at our speed. Anna was so friendly and amazing and helped us with the rest of our day after our tour was over.

Our guide was INCREDIBLE! The best we've ever had at the Louvre-she was kind, efficient and so knowledgeable and made us laugh and relax the entire time. She navigated the crowd and process like a true professional. THANK YOU!

Louvre museum is huge, with lots of stairs and halls, and great number of visitants. It is extremely busy. The group was big (25 people). Sylvia however did an excellent job giving us a tour and managing to keep us all together.
