5.00My partner and I had a small group tour of The Louvre and our guide was amazing, very informative and took the time to show us some real gems of the Louvre. He was enthusiastic and kind. Ahmed had a set of high quality ear phones for everyone and guided us through and around large crowds of people and made our time at The Louvre very enjoyable. I would highly recommend him as a guide.

5.00We had an absolutely wonderful experience at the Louvre, thanks to our incredible guide, Violette. Her passion for art and history truly shines through, and it made all the difference in our experience. We came away not only having seen the Louvre’s masterpieces, but with a much deeper appreciation for them. Highly, highly recommend!

5.00My daughter & myself had Adam as our Louvre Tour guide last week when we were in Paris. He was the most interesting, knowledgeable & funniest guide. Best tour guide experience we have had. We learnt so much about Art, Sculptures & History. Perfect amount of time & we got the best view of the artefacts & the Mona Lisa. A trip not to forget.
Beautiful day at the louvre!

5.00Lilly was a fantastic guide! She helped bring the museum to life and provided technical and historical information. She really made the experience memorable and glad we took a guided tour rather than just doing it on our own. Highly recommend.
Great experience

5.00Our guide, Lily, was extremely knowledgeable and pleasant. She provided in-depth information on specific interpretations of paintings and explained the symbolism. She added a lot to the experience. Having only one day at the museum, I thought the guide really helped. Beautiful museum. We had lunch at Marly’s outside overlooking the courtyard. The food and service was worth the premium. Glad we did it.
Great Louvre Tour with Fat Cat

5.00Violette from Fat Cat company was our Tour Guide. She is a Historian by education and Professional Tour Guide by training. While thousand of people waited in line to get tickets, we passed the entry to the Louvre Museum in minutes. Within less than 3hours, we saw 10 most “important” masterpieces there including paintings, sculptures and other artifice by known and unknown artists. Our Louvre Tour was very informative and enjoyable. We strongly recommend Violette from Fat Cat.
Excellent!

5.00We enjoyed a lovely morning with Violette in Louvre. She spent two hours telling us stories and showing us the 5 big sights of the Louvre among many others. She was entertaining and informative and we definitely recommend her tour. We will be getting in touch for our next visit to Paris!
Highly recommend

5.00🇿🇦 Absolutely brilliant experience! Ahmed from Fat Cat Tours was hands down the best guide we could’ve asked for at the Louvre. Super knowledgeable, warm, and made us feel right at home from the moment we met him by the pyramid. His passion really shows, and he made the whole experience unforgettable. Truly world-class – highly recommended!
Excellent!
