Highlights
  • Louvre Museum - Head back in time to the period when the Louvre was a fortress, as you walk through the shadows of the Medieval Foundations. Soon you will come face to face with the Great Sphinx of Tanis whose riddles have puzzled for thousands of years. Throughout your tour you will walk past thousands of paintings, sculptures and artifacts, and hear scandalous tales of murder and cannibalism.

Your tour has been carefully planned to stop at over a dozen of the world’s most well-known works of art, all of which hold secrets and gossip, bringing it all to life in a new way you never imagined. The tour concludes at the most famous lady of them all, Mona Lisa.

Easy Louvre visit - This was an informative tour and not your typical boring one. Our Guide Sagar was very nice and has a sense of humour. He is a story teller and gave us a lot of background stories about the louvre and surrounding areas. He also recommended few arts to check out in the louvre. Highly recommended. We were lucky as the louvre was not as crowded as expected. We went on a Wednesday 10:30am tour.

Worth every penny! - We took a guided tour with Gabriel and he made it a very pleasant and personal experience. Louvre can be very daunting due to its vastness but he made sure we saw the most important parts starting from the history to the Mona Lisa and Napoleon exhibits. He was very informative with every piece of art and considering we had 2 teenagers with us he made sure they were equally engaged. We would highly recommend this private tour especially with Gabriel.

Great way to see what you want efficiently with a knowledgeable guide - We recently took a Private Louvre Guided Tour and it was absolutely incredible! Valérie, my guide, was so friendly and knowledgeable about the history of the museum. She was able to answer all our questions and really brought the history alive. She made sure we saw the artwork we wanted. It would have been impossible to fully appreciate the museum without Valérie's great guiding skills and enthusiasm. From the moment we stepped into the museum until the end of the tour, Valérie made sure that we had a unique and enjoyable experience. I'm so thankful for her warm hospitality and am glad I decided to take this private tour. Thanks Valérie for the experience!

Great experience - Denise was a lovely, it was really nice. The only point to mention is it would be much better if she spoke a little louder.

Not worth the time - Our guide we could not understand her. She had a very thick French accent and spoke too softly. We parted ways very early in the tour.
