Excellent private skip the line tour

Anthony_G, July 2022

My husband and I did this private tour in English. Romain was our tour guide and was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. He answered all of our questions and was very enthusiastic about explaining the history of Invalides. The tour was fun and interesting.

Excellent guided tour with a knowledgeable guide

Neil_B, July 2022

Excellent guided tour with a knowledgeable guide who is clearly really into their military history and background to Les Invalides. As with most museum's in Paris, the place is far too big to take in over the course of a trip with a guide, but you are left with your entry tickets afterwards for some self-exploration.

An excellent guide to a very interesting museum.

We really appreciated Taylor's knowledge and style. She was attentive to all of us and did a great job sharing important information with both adults and kids.

Our guide Michele took us for a couple of hours through the museum. He did a wonderful job and gave us the full story about Napoleon and place itself. Absolutely a recommendation for history lovers.
