Splendid Visit - Our guide was excellent! She was very knowledgeable and patient. This place is extremely busy so you definitely want “skip the line” access. This place is huge and it would take days to completely see it all.

Louvre - make it manageable w/ great guides! - Malaika was an outstanding tour guide for our day at the Louvre! We’ve done several tours elsewhere in the world in places that were too large to go it alone, and she was among the best guides. She made our day educational, easy and delightful. Would highly recommend her and Babylon Tours.

How to turn overwhelming into awesome! - I have been to the Louvre before but given the complexity of the museum and the crowds I booked a tour for me and my daughter. I am very glad I did. Liliya our guide was amazing. She is a native English speaker so easily understandable. She had an extensive knowledge of the masterpieces we saw and knew how to efficiently guide us to the main attractions. She was patient when my daughter wanted to take pictures. She was very pleasant. I would highly recommend this tour especially if Liliya is your guide!

A day in the life of the Louvre - My husband was awarded a trip to Paris, and visiting the Louvre was on the bucket list. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and our tour guide, Marcel. We will definitely be visiting again in the future and hope to bring our family to enjoy this awesome experience. We appreciate everything this tour offered.

Tour guide was not upto minimum standards. - Not impressed at all with the guide. I never go out of my way to write a negative review but the tour guide wasn’t helpful at all or even provided quality information on the museum and various pieces. She even didn’t tell us we can use the elevator considering my parents are old and not very mobile. Defintely wouldn’t recommend it.
