5.00Our guide Blerta was excellent. As an artist herself having studied art she knew such wonderful details and made our experience touring the Louvre with her very memorable. We love how she knew how to maneuver through such a huge museum and all the crowds. 5 star plus plus

5.00Only 3 members in our group made for efficient navigation through this massive museum. Our guide was expert in taking us to the best locations, sidestepping the crowds, and not missing any of the highlights. She seemed well connected with the museum staff who allowed her some privileges in access and viewing locations not offered to the common tourist.
Excellent time!

Perfect highlights tour of the Louvre: fun, educational and includes both most popular and places you wouldn’t explore

5.00Blerta was an engaging and knowledgeable tour guide who offered a perfect highlights tour of the Louvre for my teenage daughter (her first) and me (my third). She combined art, museum and French history in our tour bringing us quickly past the lines and through highlights and unique areas of the vast museum. She made it feel as if the 30,000 visitors there that day weren’t there making it a personalized experience. She also explained to see everything in the Louvre you’d need almost 200 days without a break so we were thankful for her expert guidance and knowledge.
Money well spent
