Personally, I'm not a big fan of reviews—they can be subjective and vary greatly depending on individual tastes. However, during my own travels, I've found they remain the best way to get a realistic sense of what to expect from a service or experience.

Absolutely spectacular Louvre tour with Pascal! He was so engaged with our young children and made our tour an absolute delight.

I was blown away by Pascal’s ability to maintain the attention of a 4 year old and 40 year old simultaneously. The kids left with mementos and memories that made the experience so special. Could not recommend the Louvre Scavenger Hunt tour any more!

Louvre Treasure hunt with Pascal - December

We were so VERY lucky to have found Flore Gurrey, Tours in Paris!

My husband and I were in there this year for Christmas (2025). The last time we had been in there was just days after Notre Dame had burned so he was never able to visit this amazingly classic French landmark. I reached out to Flore, with only two weeks before our travel and she was able to fit us in for a personal tour for the two of us with Melanie. Melanie has a huge passion for Gothic Cathredals and was the most knowledgable and enchanting guide! She shared history, photos through the years, diagrams, - you name it- she travels with them in a folio that was incredibly helpful.

I can't begin to say how great this group is.

We are planning another trip later this year and this time, they will be my first call to schedule another tour. Merci Flore and Melanie! Tout était absolutment parfait!

Visited Notre Dame in December with Mélanie

We had an incredible experience with Tours in Paris when visiting Paris recently! The entire process with the company was seamless from start to finish. We actually booked somewhat last minute, and they were still able to accommodate us without any stress. Everything felt easy and well organized, which made a big difference while traveling with kids.

 

Our tour guide Melanie tailored the tour perfectly to our two kids (ages 10 and 11). She struck just the right balance of detail and information—engaging and educational without ever feeling overwhelming. What could have been an intimidating visit to such a vast and iconic museum became one of the most memorable highlights of our trip. Most impressively, she kept our kids fully engaged the entire time through interactive activities and thoughtful questions that made them feel involved rather than just along for the ride. They’re still talking about what they learned!

 

If you’re visiting the Louvre with a family, we can’t recommend this company highly enough. We’re already hoping to use their services again for other museums in the near future. This tour was easily one of the most memorable parts of our trip!

New Year 2026 tours reviewed

Thank you for your positive and constructive reviews.

We booked the kids scavenger hunt private tour, and I cannot say enough great things about it.

 

The tour began by meeting our guide Ben outside the museum. We were traveling during the holidays and the area was packed. He was able to lead myself and my 9 year old effortlessly into the museum, check our coats, and through the ticketed entrance. He then spent the next 2 hours curating a perfect tour for us.

 

We had arrived in Paris that morning on a red eye flight. So I was worried about keeping my daughter engaged for the full tour. I should not have worried for a moment. He spoke directly to her the whole time and showed her things that were interesting and enjoyable for a kid of her age. I didn't have to worry about finding our way around or figuring out what we wanted to see. Ben took care of it all.

 

This tour was a highlight of our trip and I would highly recommend it for anyone traveling with kids to Paris.

Flore and Louise were exceptional. They helped coordinate everything seamlessly and shared their knowledge with warmth, clarity, and great care. They were incredibly informative while always attentive to our family’s pace and interests. They truly made this trip feel special and meaningful. We couldn’t have asked for better guides in Paris.

Visited in January with Louise

A magnificent visit, a discovery of the basilica's ancient and present history with Mathilde, who was a true expert on the subject. With Mathilde's guidance, explanations, and knowledge of French and Notre Dame history, we learned a great deal; it was not only fascinating but also very enriching. We enjoyed every moment in the best possible conditions. Thank you!

Flore was very responsive and helpful in setting up a tour at the Lourve for our daughter. Margot provided the tour and she was terrific! She was very interactive and personable. Our daughter learned a lot (as did we). I would definitely recommend.

My husband and I booked two private museum tours with Ben (Louvre & D'Orsay).

We learned so much about world history, art history, and architecture. Tackling these museums on our own would have been daunting.

Aside from his wealth of knowledge, Ben is an absolute delight.

Undoubtedly an invaluable asset to anyone's trip to Paris.

Family Louvre tour with12 yold daughters in December

We had a four hour city highlights tour with Pascal that exceeded our expectations!

We had a great mix of driving and walking to see a lot but also explore in some depth.

In particular the walking portions allowed us to explore Montmarte near Sacre Coeur, the Marais and the Place des Vosges, and Notre Dame cathedral and the Latin Quarter. Pascal was very informative of not only what we were seeing but also what it is like to live and work there and we learned so much in a short amount of time. Yes expensive, but entirely worth it!

Highly recommend!!

Paris highlights with Pascal in December 2025

We had two wonderful Hours with Mathilde at Notre Dame. Though we had been before, her knowledge and insights about the history of the cathedral, including its restoration, captivated us. The sparkling renovation was obvious. But the details of that effort, including new additions, made for a visit that we will not forget.

What an afternoon!

Many thanks.

December 2025 - Louvre & Orsay combo tour

Thanks for everything yesterday!

Our tour of Norte Dame was truly special!! Jessica shared insights we would never have imagined.. The level of detailed explanations of all the eras (starting in 300BC) provided us with incredible historical depth in a truly engaging storytelling way..

Jessica captured our imaginations! It was as if we were there during every era and with all 2000 people.. that contributed to the miracles of the restoration of Norte Dame after tragedy..She even shared a few “Easter Egg” moments (e.g. shadows of images from new lighting..that we would not have otherwise known were there).

A truly unique and incredible Tour Guide.. enhancing our knowledge of Norte Dame.. In ways we couldn’t have imagined, even though all of us have been there several times before over the last 30 to 40 years

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We booked our Louvre tour with Tours in Paris and Louise was our guide for the day!

Despite having been to the Louvre many times (and having been in a few tours), I was amazed at how much new information I learned! Louise was FANTASTIC, informative, and kept the tour going at a great pace! Honestly, 2 hours will never be enough to see everything but it was a perfect way to hit the highlights and discover it in a new way - whether it is your first or 100th time! Highly recommend!

My brief to Flore was to arrange a guide who would gain the interest of young teenagers along with 2 older generations.

I can thoroughly recommend and hope we have another chance to return to Paris soon.

We did a private Louvre tour with Pascal, and it was absolutely fantastic.

We learned so much, not just about the incredible pieces of art, but also about the fascinating history of the Louvre itself. Pascal’s stories were insightful, engaging, and brought everything to life in such a memorable way.

The tour company was also wonderful to work with, quick to respond, kind, and incredibly accommodating.

We booked just three days before our visit, and they made everything so easy, fitting our schedule perfectly.

If you’re looking for a personalized and truly enriching experience in Paris, I can’t recommend this tour enough!

A truly unforgettable Louvre experience

We had an exceptional private tour of the Louvre with Margot, who was friendly, approachable, and an absolute delight to spend time with. Her knowledge and expertise about the paintings we saw were outstanding, and her passion for what she was teaching us had us completely enthralled—so much so that we didn’t even realise more than two and a half hours had flown by!

Tours in Paris is such a fabulous company, able to provide a level of service that enhanced our trip to Paris enormously.

Highly recommended for anyone wanting a richer, more meaningful experience of the Louvre.

We had a wonderful 5 hour tour in Paris with Paschal. Expensive but so worth it. We could not have done this on our own with the time we had to spend in Paris. It was a Walking/Food/Wine/History tour. Paschal was so accommodating and professional. Best to do these things with a well seasoned local. Can’t recommend this enough. Thanks Paschal.

Paricipated in a Louvre Treasure hunt in November 2025 with Iuliana

I was fortunate to connect with Pascal and Camila through the excellent Flore Gurrey at Tour in Paris and it was the best travel decision I made.

Their friendly, personable approach made my private tours of Montmartre and Le Marais the absolute highlight of my trip. Their depth of knowledge is simply astounding. Pascal provided a fantastic overarching context for the entire city, expertly pointing out important monuments and historical sites and weaving them into the grand narrative of Paris's evolution. This made every location we visited feel connected to a larger, fascinating story.

In Montmartre, he then brought the bohemian history of the Sacré-Cœur and Place du Tertre to life with captivating stories about the artists who once lived there.

In Le Marais, Camila expertly dove into the intricate tapestry of the area's unique history, from its medieval roots to its vibrant contemporary culture, pointing out hidden courtyards, gardens, and architectural details I would have never noticed on my own. A fantastic and unexpected bonus was becoming a confident Metro user! Pascal and Camila explained how to navigate the lines, choose the right ticket, and understand the system's logic. Merci!

Pascal and Camila don't just show you the sights; they immerse you in the soul of Paris. They are passionate storytellers who genuinely love sharing their city—a huge thank you to Flore Gurrey 'Tour in Paris' for the perfect recommendation. I cannot recommend this entire team highly enough.

Between golden light, falling leaves, quiet streets, and a challenging museum season, your Autumn 2025 reviews have been a source of encouragement and thoughtful reflection. Thank you for walking this journey with us.

Flora with Flore was incredible to work with through the booking process. I had a lot of questions, time restrictions, and specific needs that she graciously worked around to find the right option for us, even at the last minute.

We had an absolutely wonderful tour with Ben!

It was so helpful to have him navigate us through entry, the crowds, through to the Egyptian wing, and even show us how to get to a few highlights we wanted to see outside of the Egyptian collection. His guidance through the museum as a whole made our experience relaxing when it would otherwise have been very chaotic and overwhelming on a busy day. His knowledge of the Egyptian collection was outstanding and as someone who has casually studied Egyptology for the past 25 years myself, I learned so much from him. He also made it fun and easy for my husband to understand with much less Egyptian knowledge! Ben has a wonderful way of making stories come to life with funny poses, jokes, and adding his own personality into the tour. We also appreciated meeting someone our age who has young kids! Of course that was just an added perk to be with someone who could relate to us since we were on our babymoon.

Flore kept in contact with me up until our tour date and after. She is very conscientious and considerate. I should have booked more tours with her... The next time I am in Paris, I will be booking a tour with Flore and will be recommending this company to all my family and friends.

My husband and I booked two tours through Private Tours in Paris. Both were excellent. Our first tour was a WWII French Resistance tour with the friendly and knowledgeable Margot. She was happy to stop along the way and share her considerable knowledge about the rebuilding of Notre Dame. We shared a cup of coffee in a beautiful hidden park she showed us when we were done. The next day we toured the Musee D'Orsay with the equally enthusiastic art history buff, Marijke. She showed us her favorites and was totally flexible about the agenda. These tours are not inexpensive but in my experience with guides, you get what you pay for. Highly recommend.

If I could rate these Private Tours in Paris higher than 5 Stars I would certainly do so.

The communication with Flore from the start (way back in December 2024) all the way through our tours in September was always superb. Quick responses and always with good humor. She worked with us to get the combination of tours that we hoped for to maximize our time in Paris.

 

Our guide, Melanie, we cannot sing her praises loudly enough. We were with her for two days in the Louvre - six hours each day (3 hours-then lunch-then 3 more hours) and a three hour tour of d'Orsay on a third day. Melanie's knowledge and her enthusiasm for art and history shown through consistently in our time with her. She exceeded our expectations at every turn.

 

We plan to return to Paris and want to do yet another full day in the Louvre and another half day in d'Orsay and add in a tour of the Palais Garnier. We ABSOLUTELY will go through Flore for these tours and ABSOLUTELY will have to have Melanie as our guide.

 

We recommend Private Tours in Paris, Flore, and Melanie without reservation. If you want an incredible experience, do yourself a favor and use them for your time in Paris.

My family of 3 visited Paris in late July. We used Private Tours in Paris for tours of the Louvre and Sainte-Chapelle/Notre Dame.

We were very impressed by Flore and her team. From the start, Flore was extremely helpful with planning and recommendations for our time in Paris. Flore helped us plan two different tours. She also helped provide an English speaking tour guide, Louise.

Louise was a fantastic tour guide. Her depth of knowledge in French history and arts was quite impressive. Louise was able to help us navigate the Louvre very efficiently. This led to us being able to see many exhibits on our list in just 3. hours. Later in our trip Louise helped us tour Sainte-Chapelle and Notre Dame. Louise made sure that our 12 yo son saw everything and got all his questions answered.

Flore and the team are excellent. If you're visiting Paris and need help really seeing and learning all that Paris has to offer, you should definitely contact them.

I don’t think I can say enough positive things about my experience with Flore and Private Tours in Paris. Flore was kind and responsive and so helpful - really lovely to correspond with. The tour was absolutely amazing. The Louvre was very busy the day of our tour. Our guide commented that it was more crowded than usual. But his guidance made the crowds a non-issue. The skip-the-line experience getting in was a great start. He took us through the history of the Louvre first, which was really interesting. Then we visited the art highlights of the museum. He always found a good vantage to see the art and his descriptions and explanations were interesting and lively. We were spellbound. He was funny and warm as well as informative Without his help, we would have felt like we were tumbling through a sea of people. With his help, we hardly noticed them. Only the Mona Lisa was so mobbed with a shoulder-to-shoulder crowd we ran out of patience trying to get close. I recommend with enthusiasm!

Flore arranged for Louise to guide us for a full day tour of Versailles. She was very knowledgable and experienced and did a fantastic job. Her command of French history was impressive! She also arranged for lunch from a lovely bakery in town, and we had a nice picnic by the Grand Canal.

Flore : Our Spring 2025 reviews have been both constructive and overwhelmingly positive — thank you all for your valuable feedback and contributions!

Flore, I just wanted to send a thank you for the tours. I’m so happy we found you (thank you, Google)! A couple of fun things:

Louvre by night: My husband has zero interest in art. The 2-hour evening tour of the Louvre hitting the highlights was perfect. Alix provided details and answered all of our random questions.

Versailles half day: Francois (spelling?) was completely lovely. She shared insights about the royal family moving to Versailles as we were leaving town so we were prepared. The palace was crowded, of course, so we popped out to the gardens. All in all, a splendid afternoon.

And finally, thank you for the car service recommendation. Much appreciated!

My husband and I came to Paris to celebrate our birthdays this year. I contacted Private Tours in Paris to set up a tour of Notre Dame and Sainte Chappelle. We had a wonderful tour guide . We arrived at Notre Dame at 8 AM, attended mass, and explored the beautiful Cathedral. Afterward, we had coffee and met our tour guide at the Cité metro station at 10:30. She was fantastic and shared fascinating historical details about both Notre Dame and Sainte-Chapelle. The tour also included detail about the architecture of both churches. We were particularly delighted to learn about the tympanum of the Last Judgment portal as you enter Notre Dame.The depiction of the little demons trying to tip the scales of the souls was memorable. St Chappelle has an equally memorable tympanum. We both love history which made this your wonderful and interesting.

We had the most incredible experience with Margot and Flore from Private Tours in Paris during my bachelorette weekend! They worked with me to create a surprise tour of the Louvre that focused on bespoke love stories. It was absolutely perfect - thoughtful, surprising, and so much fun.

Margot was an absolute delight - engaging, well-researched, and effortlessly knowledgeable about every corner of the museum. She knew all the best ways to navigate the Louvre and somehow made the world’s largest museum feel intimate and personal. Her storytelling brought each piece to life, and her patience, humor, and warmth made the time fly by.

 

It was such a unique and meaningful experience with the perfect blend of art, history and love stories; all tailored to celebrate the occasion. I can’t recommend this enough for anyone looking for something special in Paris.

Thank you, Margot and Flore, for creating such a great experience, it was truly one of the highlights of our trip!

I think I speak for all four of us when i say that we thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon with Pascal at the Louvre. He clearly knew his subject matter and delivered a great afternoon.

We’re grateful for the constructive and positive reviews in 2025 — thank you all for your contributions!

Hadrien was a wonderful tour guide. He met us on time, gave a short preview, and was considerate of our need for breaks. His knowledge of history is remarkable. We highly recommend Private Tours in Paris with Flore Gurrey. Booking was easy and follow up was seemless.

We had an excellent experience with Melanie at the Louvre. My husband and I were concerned about explaining to our 6-year old son what was in such a big and amazing museum. Melanie's guidance and stories made the visit fun and interesting. We navigated the museum easily to get to the key areas. The booklet and activities are brilliant; our son got to learn while applying what he was seeing at the museum. A visit he (and we as parents) will always remember. Thank you, Melanie!

We had a lovely tour at the Louvre with Hadrien. The museum is intimidating, especially if you are short on time. Hadrien was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure to answer all our questions. The booking process was very seamless. Flore was incredibly helpful creating a custom experience. If you are in Paris, these tours are definitely worth it!

We are beyond grateful for this amazing and educational experience! Our tour guide, Stephanie, is an educator and it was obvious right from the start she was the perfect guide to lead our 6-year old son through the Louvre. Stephanie was fun, engaging, and highly knowledgeable about all the exhibits in the museum. And to top it all off, our son received a few gifts for being so attentive and solving all the clues. 100% recommended if you are looking a positive family experience. Thanks to Flore and her team for the efficient service!

Our guide Marijke was excellent. We not only experienced the phenomenal art but she guided us through the history of the museum and the artists therein. Even though the museum was horribly crowded we were able to negotiate around with her knowledge. Worth every penny we paid!

My wife and I enjoyed an enchanting 3 hr walk-through Montmartre with Camila, our guide and historian. Aside from her obvious knowledge of the history and traditions of this village “outside the wall”, she was simply a charming person through and through, and that really came through on her tour and fostered an engaging experience that was relaxed and fun. She took us at our own pace, and was flexible enough to let us sit for wine and cheese at the end of our three hour tour. Although we left with the feeling that we’d only scratched the surface of this charming region of Paris, we now plan to return to it and explore it further on our own. Fluent in French, Spanish, and English, and now learning Italian, Camila should be your go-to for Montmartre and beyond, I can’t recommend her highly enough.

We really enjoyed our tours with Melanie and Iuiana, they were very informative and memorable. The kids had a great time with Iuliana and the treasure hunt, plus the adults also found it very informative. Also had a great adult tour with Melanie, she provided a lot of information on the exhibits that we visited and was very knowledgable.

The arrangements for the tour were very smooth, positive and professional. Our driver-Scandia-and our tour guide exceeded all expectations. Scandia was smooth, considerate and professional. Juliana was an absolute delight. Her knowledge of the subject matter was obviously all there -but she also brought us into Monet's world, and then again into the opulent life at Versailles. Before our arrival, we received some great background so we had our own individual knowledge base. It was terrific and totally enjoyable. We will return soon and will decide what else we're going to visit with these fine professionals.

Iuliana was absolutely wonderful!!! We did the 2 hour private treasure hunt tour and it was such a fun and special experience for all of us! It was probably my favorite thing we did in Paris during our time there! My son is 4 almost 5 and the tour was perfect for his age group, he was so engaged the entire time and had so much fun learning about each piece. It is such a huge/overwhelming museum that in order to really appreciate it and learn something you really have to go with a guide- this was the perfect way for my husband and I to also get to enjoy the museum as well as our son. It was so much fun getting to see him experience the louvre in such a unique way tailored to his age. She also had a workbook that he used throughout the tour that was perfect- and at the end she gave him a fun prize to congratulate him on completing the mission which he was very excited about. My son LOVED iuliana and immediately grabbed her hand and was so comfortable with her it was very sweet. She is really great with children and truly has a gift! She also taught us so much about art! The 2 hour tour was the perfect length of time for our son, but my husband and I didn’t want to leave! 10/10 recommend and hopefully one day we can come back in future for another tour!

We had two of the best tours on our trip to Paris!

The food tour was a favorite especially for the kids. Camila had wonderful food stops through Montmartre. She was so knowledgeable. I loved all the back streets she took us on to make it to Basilique du Sacré-Coeur de Montmartre. Truly hidden treasures we would have missed visiting on our own.

Melanie was fantastic! My children would have been very miserable walking through the Louvre with my husband and I. Her knowledge of the history was incredible. I actually felt like the kids gained some knowledge and I appreciated her making it fun for all!

Merci!

We booked 3 different guided tours. The guide on our 1st and 3rd day was Iuliana and on the second day it was Alix. Both guides were excellent. They had a deep knowledge of the Louvre as well as the relevant historical context. We thoroughly we enjoyed the time we spent with them. I will also note, because we had a private tour we were able to quickly access the museum without waiting in line for hours. Highly recommend booking these tours.

Wow! Our tour was perfect!! Highly recommend! We booked 2 tour guides due to the size of our group and Flore was so helpful in planning our tour. She helped pick the right day and time to suit our desires, asked the ages of the children in our group and gave suggestions, and because we struggled booking our tickets to the Louvre Flore gave advice and assistance with that. Flore arranged for us to tour with Stephanie and Pascal and we had such a great time. I don't think I'd ever visit another museum without a tour guide. You simply can not visit the Louvre without one. We split into two groups and Stephanie and Pascal customized each tour based on the ages of each group. One group did the Treasure Hunt for kids and they loved it. After the Louvre, we had lunch at a nearby Cafe and the kids continued working in their treasure hunt booklet, answering things they had not finished and writing their memories down. I highly recommend Flore, Stephanie and Pascal! Knowledgeable, Kind, Thorough, Prompt, great with communication, and enjoyable to spend the time with!!!

Amazing tour guide who helped us avoid the lines to get in so we didn’t have to wait. 45 minutes makes it. It’s super interactive for kids and families even though some of the art was boring a great person who helped us walk around the museum and chose the highlight view so that we didn’t go into the big crowds and we didn’t just look at everything Probably the best way to see the museum of any tour place

Our tour of the Louvre was tremendous and highly memorable because of our guide, Leontine. We have visited the Louvre a number of times in the past but this time, we were hosting some newcomers. Wanting to ensure that they had a perfect experience, we called upon Flore to provide the knowledge and experience to make it so. And she delivered! Our guide, Leontine, was unique in her knowledge, insights, personality and patience. I learned more about the Louvre in 3 hours that day than in all of my previous trips combined. I will never visit the Louvre and beyond in Paris without first consulting with Flore.

Stephanie was truly an amazing Louvre guide for our 9 and 5 year old (and also us parents). Her knowledge of the museum and all the art was extremely impressive. Will definitely seek to work with her again on our next trip
