Doing a small group is so worth it! Violette was a great guide, and brought everything to life with her stories and knowledge of the history and artworks! The Louvre is overwhelming in size, and if you’re going to go, you might as well get much more out of it by doing it with a guide!

Maryam was an amazing tour guide for the Louve. She knew the Louve very well and provided us lots of interesting facts about the Louve and artwork in the museum. She was open to what we were interested and was able to customize the tour to our interests. There was only 3 ppl in our group and recommend a smaller group to get the most of your time.

We toured the Louvre on Oct 10. 2025. The tour was a great experience. The communication in advance was clear, the meeting point was easy to reach and entering through the group entrance was quick. Our guide, Violette, was wonderful. She was really knowledgable and guided our group efficiently to many of the most important artworks and artifacts, while educating and entertaining us. All in all it was a great tour - time and money well spent. Thanks Violette!
