• Akiko—Louvre Tour Guide of the Year!

  Akiko led us on a private tour of the Louvre and absolutely exceeded our expectations. We originally hired a guide for logistical help navigating the vast, often overwhelming museum, but what we received was a rich, engaging education in French history and art. Akiko was energetic, thoughtful, and full of fascinating insight. She took us straight to the highlights—popular works and hidden gems alike—and shared detailed stories that brought each piece to life. Her pacing was perfect, and she was always attuned to our group’s needs. Touring the Louvre with her was one of the best decisions of our entire trip.

  The guided tour itself was good. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. However, the tour company never gave us the museum tickets so we were unable to see anything else in the museum after the guide left. We contacted the tour operator using the Viator app but ended up leaving due to no response. They did eventually send the tickets almost an hour later but we had already left the museum since we have small children and were not going to wait an unknown amount of time for them to answer. I even called Viator but all they could send me was the voucher which was no help since the tour company had the actual tickets. We paid almost 600 Euros and only got to see one wing of the museum. We requested a partial refund but were denied.

• Excellent tour!

  Our guide was simply excellent! He added so much personal detail to our tour, and helped us navigate the crazy crowds. This was a small person tour, and as such, we were able to get in ahead of most lines. Otherwise, the wait would have been very long. I recommend taking a 9am tour so the crowds are not as crazy as later in the day. His suggestions for getting to the front to see the Mona Lisa were spot on.

• Definitely recommend

  Blerta was an excellent guide. Her love for art history showed in her explanations. She also included our toddler in every conversation which was very special.

  Great tour in a small group. Zach was great and told us so much. The tour keeps it from being overwhelming. He showed us all the things we wanted to see.

  I visited the Louvre Museum years ago with my family, and I can easily say that it’s much better when you have someone to explain each period. It’s so useful if you want to make the most of your visit — you’ll really notice the difference. Thanks for the great organization!

• A delightful morning at the Louve

  Jerome was a great guide . He is full of knowledge . I really love how he created the tour from beginning to end. Starting early was also great to beat the crowd .

• Our guide was knowledgeable, funny and very good at keeping us together and engaged in such a busy museum.

  We only had a short period of time to visit, and this was a perfect summary. Entry & navigation would have been difficult without guidance.

• Very interested? Too short

  Although our guide Akiko was very knowledgeable and helpful with our questions, I would suggest a longer tour as it was too short for the large number of exhibits Louvre has. Having said this, it is good for those who are only interested in seeing the highlights of the museum.
