Traveler reviews
We had a very...
We had a very informative, enjoyable tour with Claire. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about the arts and shows it enthusiastically. One thing most enjoyable was how she connected the art and history of the period with very interesting stories. She also did a super job describing an artwork in one room, telling us to keep a certain something in mind, and making a connection with another piece by a different artist in another room. Claire was also quite good at moving around the crowds while still emphasizing the important pieces. I would gladly take another tour from her. Thanks, Claire!
Chaotic entrance, no skip the line
Finding the meeting location and tour guide is confusing and chaotic with museum employees giving you conflicting information and insisting there is no such thing as a ticket that "skips the line". Lovely museum though
D’Orsay
A must do and Felicia was great. Her knowledge and enthusiasm made everything that much more interesting.
Highly recommend!!
Hugo was our guide and fabulous tour of the museum. Hugo knowledgeable and made the tour very interesting and manageable to get through this museum.
We loved having Laurence...
We loved having Laurence lead us through the Museum and we learned a lot about art history. She’s a very animated and knowledgeable guide. It would have been better to have headsets. The Museum was crowded and we had to stay close to hear her. As a result I don’t think we enjoyed as many paintings as we might otherwise been able to.
