Five Big -Bright Stars for Mateo - Matteo did an excellent job in hitting all the high points of the Louvre and history of France. In our short two hours with him, he revealed the origins of France and gave us a sweeping perspective on art and the history of this country, which connected the dots to all the other art and architecture we saw elsewhere in the city during our short first trip to Paris. Very helpful for our trip and for our new lifelong love of this important city. If you only have two hours—Mateo is an excellent teacher of providing an overview of France and the contents of the Louvre. Five big and bright stars for Mateo!

Friendly, informative and insightful - Friendly, informative and accommodating! This made our experience of the museum so special. The knowledge that Matteo shared with us was insightful and information we would have struggled to find on our own. We had a baby and an 8 year old and found that having a guide made the experience far more interesting for all of us! I highly recommend booking him!

Engaging overview of the Louvre - We’d been to the Louvre before on our own, but it was much better with a guide! Matteo is knowledgeable and passionate about the Louvre’s art and history, and very helpful in navigating the museum. Plus skipping the line at admission is a big perk!

Matteo was the most fun,... - Matteo was the most fun, knowledgeable guide we could have ever had for our first visit to the Louvre. He was so accommodating with our one member who had a broken ankle and adjusted his tour to make sure he was comfortable.
