A Treasure of a Tour! - Just excellent!! Our guide Thibaut was so impressive! Knowledgeable, welcoming, accommodating and so enthusiastic! A not to be missed adventure at two of the world’s great repositories of art and history. Viatour is to be congratulated on this option for visitors to Paris. Customers should be aware you visit highlights and a more thorough and intense visit is needed another time. Merci merci! Bravo Thibaut.

10/10 UK Tour - Erlon - This was our first time to the Louvre! Our tour guide was 10/10. Erlon guided us through all the key elements and saves so much time as we wished to see key features. The group access area was amazing! Toilets also! It was very warm when we attended but we stopped in cool areas when needed! Highly recommend & thank you for making our experience unforgettable!

A great guide for two great places. - I highly recommend Babylon Tours and especially their wonderful guide Lilly for both Louvre and Orsay tours. Sometimes you work with knowledgable guides, sometimes with high energy guides and sometimes with very pleasant guides. Lilly has the unique ability to combine all these into her persona. We left both of the tours with a rather good understanding of the key pieces in the museum and also with a feeling of us having contributed to this understanding. This is a very good feeling. Thank you Lilly.

Julien at the Louvre. - Julien was an excellent guide. Patient, kind, professional, and informative. He went above and beyond for us and took the time to explain the intricacies that underlie many of the works that enhanced my experience at the Louvre. Would happily do this again.
