We had a guided tour of the Louvre with Anthony, and it was a fantastic experience. Anthony is a true professional who radiates passion and enthusiasm. His insights and perspectives were consistently engaging and thought-provoking. However, the company's online booking process definitely has room for improvement. Quentin, from the support team, was helpful in resolving a big issue for us.
