Wonderful, relaxed, informative, and structured highlights. - Wonderful and very personal tour with Miriam. It is a very large museum. It was nice to receive highlights and some discussion of the history and art. Also got to skip the line which looked crazy long. There is so much to see and read as well.

Great experience at the Louvre! - Wow! What a great experience at the Louvre with Eduardo! We learned so much and he made it so interesting—and fun!! We got to see everything we wanted to in just couple of hours. We’re coming again and will be asking for Eduardo.

Great Experience at The Louvre - Ivana did an incredible job navigating through all the must-see works of art in the Louvre in about three hours. She was full of knowledge of the history of France, the Louvre itself and the works of art, their origins and their creators. Highly recommend this tour if you don’t want to be overwhelmed, have limited time, or just want to see the highlights

Fantastic tour with a knowledgeable guide! - My husband and I enjoyed a fantastic tour of the Louvre today. Our guide, Ivana Petrovic, was extremely knowledgeable, personable, and entertaining; delivering an exceptionally informative tour that still felt accessible and interesting. We skipped the lines to get in, and toured a number of key highlights of the Louvre such as the Mona Lisa, Virgin of the Rocks, and Venus de Milo to name a few. Ivana shared a number of lesser-known facts about the various masterpieces as well as the fascinating history of the Louvre itself. I thoroughly recommend a tour with Ivana if you're considering a visit to the Louvre!

Informative and personal! - Had a very informative experience with Christophe. His knowledge helped us better appreciate the art and notice details we never would have seen on our own. Choosing a small group tour was just right to ask all the questions.

Inflexability - Not being able to visit the Louvre museum in Paris!!! I planned for a visit on 9 September as indicated in our itinerary. Unfortunatly, I am unable to include a file showing this itinerary. I never actually looked at the online ticket, however, when we could not find our guide, I was told the ticket was for yesterday!!! The tour agency had NO flexibility at all. So in the final end - we paid A$440 for nothing. This will be our last VIATOR TRIP. In future we will use another travel consultant.
