Incredible visit! It is very pretty to see! I recommend it!!
« An absolutely remarkable visit to the Opéra Garnier, enhanced by our guide Célinie. Sparkling, full of humor and communicative energy, she knew how to make every step exciting. Her explanations were clear, lively, and always punctuated with delightful anecdotes that give the place an even more magical dimension. Thanks to her, we discovered the Opera from a historical, artistic, and human perspective. Célinie masters her subject brilliantly and shares her passion with rare generosity. An exceptional moment, led by an exceptional guide. I highly recommend it! »
The tour with the guide Célini was captivating, very understandable, perfect audio with the headsets, in this sumptuous palace, even more sumptuous than expected, a 5 p.m. tour with few people, otherwise a group of about 40 people. Guide with humor, smile: I highly recommend it
This was my second visit and this time I was a little sad because the showrooms were closed But the visit vake very worth it And a wonderful place
Our tour guide, Nick, was great. Highly recommend. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour.
We were a group of 17 people on the morning of Sunday, June 7, 2026... a magnificent opera, a wonder!!! Impressive! Special mention to our guide Antoine, whom we highly recommend; he is passionate and provides detailed explanations, and he has a wonderful way of speaking that makes you want to listen. For your guide, do not hesitate to choose Antoine 😉
Excellent guide! Above and beyond taking care of mobility restrictions. Excellent language skills. Helped us to our next stop. You cannot go wrong with this tour.
An incredible experience at the Garnier opera thanks to Rita who has made us discover this place with so much passion. Many thanks to her 🙏😊
Our guide, Nick, was the absolute best! Fantastic 90-minute private tour of Opera Garnier. Nick not only thoroughly knows Opera / Paris history, he is able to converse about seemingly everything. And is an incredibly nice guy and companion. Cannot recommend more highly.
Terrific job from our guide! Very knowledgeable about the history and architecture behind this stunning building.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Jason! It was a pleasure to welcome you to this temple of lyrical art.
