5.00It moved very fast - but we did see everything we wanted to see. Obviously it is an huge place and we would not have been able to navigate on our own. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and used our time together very expeditiously. Tip: We booked an evening time slot, which was a mistake. It did not allow us an opportunity to stay and return to areas. I would do that time slot differently next time.
Highly recommend for the first time visitors of Louvre

5.00Hamish was a fantastic guide and got us through the highlights of the Louvre without it being overwhelming, which is exactly what we wanted. Hamish was incredibly knowledgeable and we really enjoyed the tour. We signed up for the three hour private tour and it was the perfect amount of time.

5.00Walid was an excellent guide. Navigating Le Louvre can be quite a challenge, and he easily took me from room to room, hitting all the areas I'd requested. He was able to provide history and context for everything we saw, which made for a rich experience. Highly recommended!
