5.00We had a wonderful visit at the Louvre. Our guide, Anais, was exceptionally knowledgeable about the museum overall and gave great information about the individual pieces. She took her time and answered questions. We did not feel hurried and enjoyed the time with her.

4.00We had an amazing tour guide who was very patient and tolerant. The museum is crowded and very large so it does become difficult to navigate. Our group of 25 was large and periodically the guide had to wait and make sure all parties were present so that took time away from the tour; however, he provided valuable information and made it humorous and memorable. I appreciate the masterpieces highlights because I would find it challenging to locate them on my own. The tour fell short of 3 hours and I felt that more could have been highlighted since much time was used to wait for other parties who were late or who could not keep up with the group. I have regards for the tour guide!

5.00The museum is very crowded; although out of company’s control disappointed that there was a government strike that caused a two hour delay in the start time which jumbled our schedule - but Omar handled it beautifully. This tour hits the highlights- may want to plan to stay longer to see more. Omar was our guide- incredibly knowledgeable and very kind! Attentive to each guest- request him if you can!
