Skip the line Louvre tour

Reviewed by: Wally, 2019/06/19

Very good experience! The Louvre is huge and there is a ton to see. With this tour you are really only getting highlights since there are about 35000 pieces to see. The amount of people there are nuts! The tour guide was very good and informative. If I had to offer one suggestion...(this is a personal preference and some people might have a different preference) ...spend as much time as possible looking at the pieces as opposed to the history of the Louvre. Some history is good but I felt like it was a little too much since I was interested a lot more than what was inside the building as opposed to the building itself. That being said, the price of the tour is well worth the money just to skip the line alone. Especially if you dont have a lot of time.

Amazing visit!

Very good service and knowledgeable guide. It was especially very convenient to follow him around because the museum is sooo big, I would have got lost for sure!
I loved hearing about French art and history and we were able to see the museum's main highlights (but be prepared, Mona Lisa is ridiculously small). Other than that, the tour was as good as my expectations. I already want to go back to see more.
Also at the moment there is a big golden masterpiece under the pyramid, it's very beautiful :)

The highlights of the louvre

An informed visit, but sadly the guides microphone was inefficient.
Interesting to hear the history of the Louvre.
It is so large that it needs several visits to enjoy it properly

  • Great to see it "in the flesh"!!

Our guide was outstanding. I don't recall her name, but she was the guide on the 9:30 English language tour on Wednesday, April 12. Extremely knowledgeable and was able to explain in a meaningful way the intricacies of the art and artist.

It was a great tour with a fantastic Guide, everything we wanted to see we did and all questions were answered fully.
We ate in the restaurant inside the museum and that was very good too.
Overall the tour was very very good value for money, with an exceptionally good guide.
If I could award more stars I definitely would 10/10 xx

This was in ideal way to see most of the major sites in the Louvre without having to navigate around the massive complex with a map and try to fight the crowds at the same time. We also maximized our day and visit by not waiting in the queue and seeing the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo with the guide. After the 2.5 hour tour we were able to stay longer and visit other exhibits on our own. Our guide was knowledgeable and helped us with strategy to plan the sites we wanted to see on our own. He also explained very interesting details about the art so people with an art background or people with no knowledge of art can understand and connect with the pieces. Highly recommended and worth the money.

We did skip the line, which was great, however the guide didn't have much kowledge about the paintings. Maybe I feel this way because the guide in the skip the line tour to the Musee D'Orsay was excellent, she sounded more like a professor than a guide and I visited Orsay first.

As the Louvre is so huge, we really appreciated the focus on key painting and artefacts, rather than trying to rush through too many floors and wings. Our guide was delightful, very knowledgable and friendly. The skip the queue is essential to making the best use of limited time.

This tour is a MUST-DO!! The tour guide has such an amazing knowledge of art history - she is great. She showed us so much more than just the major pieces. Even the kids loved it and didnt mind all of the walking.

To have a guided tour around the Louvre was excellent value for money. None of our group are into art at all, and lets face it, you cant go to Paris and not visit the Louvre, so rather than wondering around aimlessly, we decided to have a guided tour which gave so much meaning to what we were looking at. The guide was so knowledgeable, and entertaining. He made the tour what could easily have been so very boring, both fascinating and interesting. We loved it, and would highly recommend the tour.

What a great thing to skip that incredibly long line... Our guide Louis was very considerate, a great guy with extraordinary deep knowledge regarding the pieces of art and the Louvre building itself.

We couldn't have appreciated the Louvre without the wonderful experience and expertise of our guide. So much to see and hearing the history behind many of the more famous sculpture/paintings was very interesting.

It's a good way to get into the Louvre and find your way around. The guide also gave a bit of an art lesson as she took the group through the galleries. This was quite helpful.

This was a highlight tour and we did indeed see all the headliners. The guide had problems with her audio system and had to hand hold it the entire time but she managed quite well. If you only have a few hours to see the Louvre, this is the tour!
