I was so glad that I took... - I was so glad that I took this tour. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and made sure that our group experienced the best of the museum in two hours. She shared many interesting anecdotes about the artists and their works that made the tour even more enjoyable.

Great way to experience D’Orsay - Christina gave a great tour, learned so much! She is really cheerful and professional. It was very interesting to learn about Impressionism, and to get some details and education that one could not get on their own.

Excellent tour - Our guide (I think his name was Arthur?) was excellent. He took the time to explain the history of the museum and then explain the rise in impressionist paintings and what to see hidden in the artworks. I really enjoyed the tour and it was excellent value for money and I highly recommend this if you are looking for a fab tour in Paris.

The marvel of impressionism - Cécile was an incredible guide. In two hours I learned more than in my college art history classes - all of it fascinating. Her command of the history and culture of the era was exceptional. I had never before understood Impressionism - its daring, its roots, its artists - as I do now. Thank you for an unforgettable experience.

Excellent Tour - Our guide was very informative and we were able to see a lot of different pieces of art. I really appreciated how our guide framed the entire presentation by telling us about what was going on in France in general and the art world at the time of the paintings being created.

Disappointing and NOT a tour on Impressionism - This was advertised as a tour of Impressionist art but for 80 minutes of a 90-minute tour, we were given a superficial explanation of the architecture of the building and the kind of art that predated Impressionism.

Blunt disregard for customer’s problems - My wife and I were a bit late to our appointment with the tour guide. We called the phone no provided and received no direct answer, neither a response to the msg left asking how could we find the group inside the museum
