The Complete Louvre Tour: Mona Lisa & Beyond

Paulina was very knowledgeable and fun. The Louvre is so big it was great having a guide to get us around Highly recommended

One of the better Walks tours on this trip. Our guide was mature, smart, and spoke good English. She was easy to understand and could answer questions with ease. Unfortunately this was not the case on all our Walks tours on this trip. Overall quality of English was an issue on several in both Italy and France. But this tour was excellent. Our guide, Lorenz (may be misspelling) was excellent. And of course the Louvre is such a magnificent facility and collection. Together with the Orsay, these were among the highlights of our trip. Would definitely recommend this tour and this guide. She was great!

Our guide Wei led us seamlessly through the crowds at the Louvre. He led us to major works and to areas which we did not know existed. His explanations and descriptions were very interesting. We highly recommend this tour.

Our tour guide, Emily, was fabulous. I don’t know as much about art as I’d like to but she was able to give us a great slice of this enormous museum. Part of why I wanted this tour was because I knew the museum would be overwhelming without a guide, and this was the perfect length of tour, getting to know a little about the history of the museum, and see some of the most important/popular works there, with Emily sharing her knowledge and passion. Two comments/cautions: first, the afternoon we went, the two different Louvre Walks tours were meeting up at the same time and place, and the guides had no idea what the differences between the two tours were — so despite the different descriptions and prices here, I’m fairly certain the difference is mostly what guide you get (we had paid for the more expensive tour because the other was already fully booked). Second, any mention in the descriptions of seeing the Mona Lisa at a quieter moment is pretty misleading, and the guides know this, so the company should change the phrasing of the tour descriptions now that it’s impossible to achieve.
