The Louvre Done Right with a 5 Star Guide - Hugo's passion, knowledge and sense of humor made this tour the highlight of our week in Paris. His intimate knowledge of the Louvre, the art displayed, and special insights were above all our expectations.

THE BEST EXPERIENCE IN MY LIFETIME - This was the BEST tour I have ever experienced. The company and my wonderful extraordinary knowledgeable guide Emma went,I feel, over and beyond. She was fantastic. She had great communication with us before and after our tour. Emma really wanted to make sure this experience was very personal. She got to know the other tour members' needs and met ours perfectly. My daughter wants to be an artist and teach art to others, and Emma really zoomed in and made the tour extremely informative. She showed us the important sites to see during our walk between museums and picked a wonderful cafe for us to have lunch. We left the second museum feeling fed with so much information that will carry with us onto future adventures with Babylon tours and Paris. All the guides that were at the meeting place were so very kind and helpful as we waited for our tour to begin. My mind is blown right now with everything we learned in our 5.5-hour tour. Liked we had been schooled for a month. We both are extremely grateful for Emma and Babylon tours for offering this excellent tour option. We can't wait to schedule another tour with Babylon tours. I can't thank you enough!  Meric beaucoup and bon apprentissage jusquà notre rencontre.

Paintings & artists indo - Dunya was informative about the paintings we saw and the purposes behind the paintings. She was enjoyable and very helpful. She made our unexpected wait pleasant and got us into the D'Orsay quickly once it opened again. Choose Dunya!

One of the best tours, and guide, we’ve had the pleasure to appreciate. - Paloma was an excellent guide ! She explained things, making it understandable and fun. We knew essentially nothing about the art at the Louve, and she broke it down to manageable pieces, then knit it all together. One of the best guides ever, and we’ve had many. We’d love to tour with her again!

Hugo is an exceptional guide - Hugo was a wonderful guide. His passion for the lessons art can teach us came through in all he shared with us. He shared his knowledge and asked us questions that made me think.

Great tour! - Paloma was an incredible guide! She communicated beforehand which was very helpful as we landed in Paris the day of our tour. She gave excellent recommendations and showed us things that we never wouldve known without being on her tour. We appreciate and recognize art much better because of Paloma!
