An experienced guide a must!

Kelly_H, Sep 2023

The Louvre can be very overwhelming so having an experienced guide like Luliana, was the right call. Luliana provided an excellent experience with her chronological tour of the Louvre. We enjoyed the highlights with Luliana’s rich commentary and context. Thanks for the great introduction to the Louvre!

The Louvre Museum’s Hidden Secrets

Melinda_G, Aug 2023

Our tour guide Milan was excellent! We’ve toured the Louvre several times before and he showed us things we’ve never seen before! Best experience ever! Thank you so much!

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Dear Melinda, I'm very happy Milan could make you enjoy the Louvre Museum differently you did before. Thank you for your trust in my team. All the best. Iuliana

Great experience

Steven_j, Aug 2023

Milan the guide was wonderful, funny and interesting . A great and easy experience you won’t be disappointed. Thank you.

Dear Steve, Thank you for accepting to be guided by someone from my team. I'm really happy you enjoyed Milan's tour. Thank you for your trust. We hope to see you soon back in Paris. Kindly Iuliana

The tour started well...

Srijib_C, Jul 2023

The tour started well with the company offering a pick up from the hotel. We met the guide at the designated place. The guide seems to be very knowledgeable and provided with a lot of information. The only issue was that it was supposed to be a 3 hour trip but cut short to 1hr15 mins with the guide leaving us around that time saying that he has another trip.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Dear Srijib, I'm sad to read you left disappointed from the Louvre Museum Private tour with my colleague. I made everything to organise your transfert(not included in this tour fees and paid from my pocket) and Paolo my colleague was waiting for you as it was established. He reported you were late so he had not unfortunately the possibility to make the tour finish later as well as he had an other service right after the tour with you. I'm at your entire disposal the next time you come to Paris to do my best and offer you a tour with a discount. Kindly Iuliana

Excellent Tour

Michael_E, Jul 2023

Luliana was fantastic. She made it interesting for us and our kids (boys, 11 and 12). Luliana’s tour was the perfect amount of time with two boys and we learned about not only the art but also the history of the Louvre. I highly recommend Luliana.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Just Thank You Thank You Thank You. I enjoyed guiding you and the boys. I hope to see you a next time you travel to Paris and offer you other tours. Kindly Iuliana

Highly Recommended

Juliana was a great host and shared her extensive knowledge of the Louvre with our family. Skipped the queues and were treated to a history lesson that captivated our children. Highly recommended.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Dear Anthony, Thank you so much for your kind and precious review. I'm glad you enjoyed my tour and the Louvre Museum Experience. Kindly Iuliana

HIGHLY recommend Lulianna!

Adam_R, Jun 2023

Lulianna was an absolutely fantastic tour guide. She was extremely knowledgeable and took us to and through areas of the Louvre that we would never have discovered ourselves. She explained in detail all the rich history of the museum and the individual works.. We were on a tight schedule so she was very accommodating in condensing the tour down to 2 hours and to see all the major parts and works, although at the end we said we wish we could have stayed longer because she made it all so enjoyable. I would highly recommend her for private tours of the Louvre, but also other areas of Paris and she is extremely knowledgeable about the whole city and its hot spots. Thank you Lulianna, you made our tour very special.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Dear Adam, I'm so happy I was able to make from your stay in Paris a special moment. Thank you very much for your precious review. Next time you come back to Paris I will be more than happy to be your private guide. Kindly Iuliana

Amazing Tour and Guide ❤

Mary_M, May 2023

We had a great tour with Luliana! She shared so many wonderful stories about The Louvre and its works of art!

Great tour

Vance_G, Feb 2023

Helga the guide was a great source of info. Her knowledge of the paintings and objects was fantastic!

Best tour in paris!

Michael_B, Nov 2022

Luliana was amazing! She pick us up from our hotel and we headed over to a packed Louvre. Her ability to navigate us through the museum was amazing. She told a cohesive story as we weaved in and out of crowds never missing a beat. I feel I got to see some of the most important exhibits of the museum while hearing the history of the museum itself. We would have been overwhelmed left to our own devices. She really made the event fun and knowledgeable. If you have never been to the Louvre booking her is a must! Thank you so much for a wonderful time!

A fantastic tour from a knowledgeable and engaging guide

Sharif_S, Oct 2022

I travelled to Paris with my 11 year old son. This tour was absolutely perfect for us. My son is very interested in history and is well versed in ancient mythology. Iuliana, our tour guide, was extremely engaging and interactive. We learnt a great deal and she captured my son’s attention for the full length of the tour (which was over 2.5 hours). In short, this was a superb experience and I recommend it very very highly. With huge gratitude.

Amazing experience!

Paul_D, Oct 2022

Iullianna was excellent. She really brought the history of the Louve to life and made sure we saw all of the famous pieces of art. Her knowledge of historical significance of each piece of art was amazing.

Luliana is the Best

Lawrence_W, Sep 2022

Luliana was awesome! She brought the history of The Louvre and the history of the art into focus and gave it meaning. We are so glad we booked our private tour with her and would absolutely book her again on our next visit both for the Louvre as well as Normandy.

We were able to tour the...

Sharen_R, Aug 2022

We were able to tour the Louvre and allowed to view some of the most important works. The Louvre is a HUGE museum and one to take in small bites. We had a great introduction to the museum. Julieta was fabulous. She was very knowledgeable and knew exactly where to get the best pictures. Lovely

Great example of how to do business.

Michal_L, Jul 2022

Very good communication from this operator. Promptly refunded me when she was unable to fullfill the private tour I paid for.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Dear Michal, I’m always honored to please my clients. I hope to have the possibility to guide you when you come back to Paris. Kindly Iuliana

Fabulously excellent Louvre Tour!!!

Steven_C, Jun 2022

Iuliana Pintena… There are not adequate words in the English language to describe luliana!!! Such a bundle of passion, joy, knowledge and fun in making the Louvre experience fun, educational and informative!! The time spent with her was like a minute instead of 3 hours!!

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Thank you so much for your kind review ! I’m very happy I was able to make you enjoy the Louvre and to see it’s « grandeur » as I do.
