5.00This was an excellent tour. It was absolutely worth it to have a guide -- especially for booking tickets, showing us around, making sure we hit all the highlights, and helping to explain the context for art that I never would have known myself (or taken the time to read on every sign). Our tour guide was great (Monica). Very glad that we booked this tour!
Great Tour, but hard to understand the guide

3.00The tour was good and had a quick pace. The guide was very helpful, but very, very hard to understand. She was trying very hard to communicate with us in English, but it was a struggle for us to understand her. We did appreciate her enthusiasm and desire to make the trip valuable for us.
Great way to see the highlights of the Louvre

5.00The booking and meeting up process was easy and convenient. The guide (Monica) was friendly and very well informed. The tour itself was about the right duration and definitely hit the highlights.
A perfect size tour for a giant challenge.

5.00The museum would take months to digest every piece of art. The tour we took was the perfect amount. Our well educated guide made the history of the museum as interesting as the art within it. I grew up in NYC and will look for such a tour at the Met!
