5.00This tour saves us time and provide great information on the master pieces. Our guide Lomar is very knowledgeable and funny. We enjoyed learning about the pieces and not have to go through the feeling of stress to search for them on our own. Worth getting the tour. You can still stay and explore on your own after the tour for us, we only have limited time in Paris, and this tour helps.

5.00It was fabulous having an English speaking guide take us to what we wanted to see in the Louvre. He knew how to navigate through the crowds. He did walk quickly but he didn't go far and then stopped and talked about what was in the area. Those of us with mobility issues could catch up while he was talking. There were places to sit for a few minutes while he was in some of th rooms. The whisper device worked great. I am so glad we had a tour guide. We chose to leave the tour about 30 minutes before it was over and we spent so much time trying to find our way out - it might have been faster had we stayed with the guide.

1.00Make sure you read the fine print. The start as advertised is not actually the start time. Rude staff and horrible customer service.
