Excellent Tour - Antoine did a superb job of describing and explaining the D’Orsay collection. His passion for the art was evident and enlivened our tour. My wife and would strongly recommend this tour, especially with Antoine at the helm.

Team Adam Forever! - Team Adam FTW!!! Adam was absolutely amazing! I wish he could show us all of Paris. We went with a smaller group than expected and it was great! We could hear him with the headset the entire time. His passion for the art really shined! Adam had an extensive background knowledge of the artists to share so we could really appreciate the art. He also knew lots about each time period and what was happening. Adam even had little activités/games to do so we were never bored. Great pace, great time! Would HIGHLY recommend!

Spectacular Tour and “Team Adam” the best guide! - This was one of the best tours we’ve ever been on! Our guide, Adam, was the main reason. He skillfully took our entire group(13 people) around the museum pointing out things we would never have seen on our own and brilliantly helped us appreciate the uniqueness of this venue. “Team Adam”, as he referred to our group, pointed out some amazing facts about specific paintings and artists. His stories about Vincent Van Gogh were fascinating and helped us understand how his tragic life defined his paintings over his lifetime. Don’t miss this tour.

Team Adam - best tour ever!!!! - Musee d'Orsay was an amazing experience, entirely sure to the phenomenal experience provided to my family by our guide, Adam. He taught my family how to look at art. He taught us how to appreciate the human being behind the art and how to view the world differently. When people ask about my experience in Paris and what my favorite things were, I talk about this tour because it had that kind of impact on us. We loved it and we loved what we learned. Adam even gave us awesome tips for doing Paris too! My only regret was that this was on our last day in Paris and I couldn't do all his suggestions. I'll just have to come back! Take this tour, make sure you get Adam as your guide!!!

Team Adam is the way to go - We had the most wonderful and interesting day. if you are going on this tour, consider asking for Adam or request to be on Team Adam. I wish thee were more than 5 stars to give him. He is knowledgeable beyond compare. Charming. Clever, funny and passionate are just a few adjectives. We learned so much history and context and this shaped our experience of the museum 100 percent. Thank you Adam for making it so memorable.
