A perfectly organized, semi-private Louvre experience - We had a wonderful experience at the Louvre with Maëva. I did the tour in English with my mom, who was the only French speaker in our semi-private group. Even though the tour was conducted in English, Maëva was incredibly accommodating and made sure my mom was always included by explaining key points to her in French when needed, without disrupting the flow for the rest of the group.
The semi-private format made the experience feel more exclusive and personal, and Maëva’s knowledge, warmth, and engaging storytelling truly stood out.
If you’re reading this: chapeau bas — truly the Beyoncé of Paris! Keep going.
A big thank you as well to the whole team for the helpful reminders before the activity; everything was well organized from start to finish.
Highly recommended!

Great value! - This was a great way to see the Louvre and hit the highlights. My husband and I were traveling, had a quick stop in Paris and wanted to see the Louvre, as we had never been. This tour popped up on Viator with an opening time that worked for us. Our group only had about 12 people in it and the headset made it pretty easy to hear the tour guide. The museum was so crowded because it was Monday and apparently all other museums were closed, so maybe don't pick Monday if you have the choice. Sandra was our tour guide and she had an excellent fund of knowledge and kept up with our group, explained the history of the museum, and was overall just great! After 2 hours, I was beat, so was glad that was the time limit of the tour. There is so much to see but this was worth the time and money.
