We enjoyed the tour, as it suited our needs. We had 2 small children who could not withstand the longer tours. The tour guide was helpful and knowledgeable. The only downside to the experience was the difficulty in finding the City Discovery office.

Our guide was most knowledgeable and very interesting to listen to. She inspired a more active interest in art for me. 2 1/2 hours is long, so be prepared. It would have been nice to have a coffee break inbetween, but I realise that it's impractical!

The tour itself was great..our guide was very knowledgeable and very friendly. We were disappointed in the Louvre when we realized that most of the artifacts were pillaged by napoleon from Athens , Rome, Egypt and elsewhere!

In two hours you see the most important things. It's a bit stressful, but after you have time to walk around by yourself. It's worth booking in advance. The queue is horrible. We wanted to have translation in German. Unfortunately, there was only English available for us.

It will take you 4 months to see all the exhibits in the Louvre if you spend just one minute on each. The highlight of the Louvre is undoubtedly Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, the most photographed lady in the world.

It was a fantastic tour if you don't have slot of time in Paris. We had a nice lunch there and went back by ourselves to do some more.

We spent at least 40 minutes crammed into a corner of the City Pyramids building to pick up tickets, wait for the guide and get our audio equipment. It was very hot and uncomfortable. It actually took from being at the meeting point at 9.15 until 10.30 before we even entered the Louvre. Our guide was good but after all the waiting around, we were then really rushed when we got to areas of interest. Fortunately, the tour gave me a good insight into the layout of the Louvre and I was able to use my ticket to spend more time there, visiting the things I wanted to see at leisure. I probably could have done this with a map and queued at the Louvre rather than city pyramids building. The guide did provide some useful insights but in a very strong french accent.

This was a wonderful way to see some real highlights at the Louvre more efficiently than if you were trying to find them yourself! Plus, missing the long lineups was good. The headsets worked well and the guide was knowledgeable.

There were issues with headphones for many people which had a negative impact since they couldnt follow along. The tour guide was very good. my suggestion is that somehow you acquire your own headphones that can be pre-tested for the tours and charge more to cover them if necessary.

the guide was very knowledgable but we saw very little thing because of the sizeof the museum and the amount of pieces. The tour could be broken down int specifics such as Greece masterpieces. roman masterpieces, the renaisance masterpieces egypt etc.

The guide was extremely knowledgeable but it was very hard to hear everything he said because of other groups close by - would be improved by use of individual headphone sets - otherwise thought it was just as I expected. Order of exhibits great - especially Mona Lisa last!

I really enjoyed the tour, we only had a few hours to tour the louvre and this was the best way to hit the major points and learn a lot in the process. We would have been so lost on our own. Our guide was friendly and very funny. Thanks!
