Reviews for The Louvre in an Hour (Ticket Included)

Pam C.

Thanks Uri for a wonderful tour this morning. It was a great introduction to this amazing museum. We would have spent ages trying to find our way around and your knowledge about the exhibits was excellent. Highly recommended.

If you have limited time in Paris this is definitely the tour for you! The Louvre is massive. You immediately hit the museum highlights without having to search and navigate around for them. I went in the evening so there wasn't much of a line but I did see the line in the day time and that in itself would be a huge benefit! Uriel is knowledgable and knows his way around. This tour was exactly what I was looking for!

What a great tour! We did a fast loop where we saw the hits - Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, etc - as well as some other really cool stuff, like the ancient foundation of the Louvre. Then ended with Uriel's favorite exhibit which was awesome, and our favorite now too! Thanks Uriel!

We booked the 1 hour tours for the Louvre and Musée d' Orsay with Uriel and we could not have been happier with Uriel's knowledge of the art work and the history of the museums. He was very accommodating to our needs and interests and planned our tours accordingly. An overall absolute pleasurable experience and will book future tours with him when in Paris. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! NOTE to fellow travelers: When traveling from London to Paris, remember there is a 1 hour time difference.

This is for the traveler who wants to check of a few items on the list of things to see in Paris (Mona Lisa; check, Venus de Milo; check...) but not quite interested enough to spend an entire day at the Louvre. The museum is grand and fantastic enough that you can easily spend all day there. And after the one hour trip, you can stay in the museum and leisurely see what you want to see. I liked it, you're in quickly, you skip most of the lines and Uriel quickly guides you to a few key things to see. If you want to see a few key thing at the Louvre but not willing to spend an entire day (or be there early when the line is short), this is a solid way to do it.

A great way to skip the lines, get inside and see few of the popular exhibits without having to stare at a map. You'll want to stick around afterwards and go back to the places that peak your interest. Good for the first time visitor. Uriel is really fun, personable and knowledgeable, free to ask him about other cools spots in Paris to eat, drink and visit.

Walk with Uriel and you will feel like a superstar. First, you walk through the Pyramids, past the impossibly long line without a moment's wait and you are in the atrium of the great Louvre. Uriel takes you on a one hour best of as well as off the beaten path of the one of the world's greatest museums. For those who just dabble in art, it's the perfect amount. The art buffs can think of it as a primer. After it's over, you feel as if you have done so much more, it's hardly possible to cram everything you saw in an hour and with your friend Uriel who always throws in a few laughs with the facts.

I learned a lot on the one hour louvre tour. Uriel was extremely knowleable about all subject pertaining to the louvre including pictures and louvre layout. At first, I was concerned about such a short time to see the louvre. However, Uriel took me to all the major paintings, explained the backgrounds, answered my questions, and even got to see napolean 's apartment and some royal jelwery. Most importantly, he was very nice and gracious. I would definitely recommend this tour with uriel to anyone going to paris.

I can highly recommend Uriel's one hour tour of le Louvre. Uriel is very knowledgable in all the paintings and features of the Louvre that he took us to - and also of all the incidental ones we pointed out. Uriel was very flexible with the time of our visit - I can recommend going early so that after Uriel leaves you still have a nice long day with all the brilliant art.

This tour with Uriel was well worth it. There were just the two of us with Uriel so a nice small group. We beat the queues and were taken swiftly to what we wanted to see and the main attractions in the Louvre, where it would have taken some time to find them. He was very knowledgeable and happy to answer our questions. After the hour, we were able to wonder round some other parts of the Louvre at our leisure, so the hour's guide was a very good introduction to this huge museum. Highly recommended!

The Louvre is such an expansive place to tackle. If you want to see the highlights and get a great map of where to explore the museum book a tour with Uriel immediately. He was warm and easy to contact. He met me and my family in the afternoon and gave us a great 1 hour tour of all the most famous pieces of art in the louvre. He let us in with tickets without a wait and gave us a map to help us explore the rest of the museum after his tour was done. So many tours are too long or too detailed. Uriel does an excellent job of giving you what you NEED to see in the louvre and guiding you to where you want to go after the tour is over. When his tour is over, you are free to spend as long as you want exploring this beautiful location.

What more could you want - your own personal expert who gets you passed all the queues and shows you some of the best bits of the Louvre, all tailored to what you want? Uriel was truly charming and a delightful guide, highly recommended.

We did the Louvre in an hour with Antione with my brother and sister-in-law. It was PERFECT - Antoine was knowledgeable and we spent a great hour seeing the highlights of the Louvre. Antoine had stories about the art which deeply enhanced the experience. The Louvre can be so overwhelming because of its size and the amount of art - with Antoine it was an amazing experience. Antoine made the whole thing easy - he already had the tickets and English brochures and maps, and then we had time afterwards to keep exploring on our own. Highly recommended!
