For first time visitors to the Louvre Museum this tour was a perfect fit. Our guide Dina was incredibly knowledgeable of the exhibits throughout the museum and was both personal and professional. Although the museum was busy, Dina navigated us easily through the crowds and provided us with a great experience.

Great introduction to the Louvre. Stanislas, our guide was knowledgeable. He brought to light the history, as well discussing the collection of art and antiquities, of the Louvre and France. After the tour one can make informed decisions to follow their interests.

Our tour guide Thyago was great! What great fortune to have an art history major to lead us. Thyago was very knowegeable about all of the areas we explored , and added greater detail to the history, people and art that we were seeing. Much of his approach was story telling- a great way to immerse us in the material. I cannot recommend Thyago highly enough!

Our guide, Manu, ensured that our small group had a memorable and educational experience. He clearly was very knowledgeable and shared interesting stories about the exhibits and art in general. This tour is more expensive than some others but well worth the price. The museum and exhibits definitely lived up to the hype! Highly recommended!
