  • Absolutely Amazing - well worth the money

    What a tour!!! Remy our driver was punctual, beautifully dressed and amazing. Excellent service from pick up at the hotel to ensuring we arrive at the right meet up point. Elena, our tour guide, what can I say. She is very friendly, easy to get along and understand. She knew we wanted to be see the Mona Lisa first. Elena a lot information like the theft of the Mona Lisa and why she is popular. Also, prepared us for entry to ensure a swift entry occurred. Upon entry she spearheaded us to the Mona Lisa. We were the first to arrive and had time to take a number of photos of the Mona Lisa before the next group arrived. It was absolutely amazing.

  • Best Way to See the Louvre

    I can’t imagine doing the Louvre any other way now. The early entrance, the expert guidance, the calm pacing—it was perfect. From Mona Lisa’s enigmatic smile to the glittering jewels and towering Winged Victory, this tour gave us the museum’s greatest hits in the best format possible.

    - Sophia Delgado
  • Unique Access Few Get

    When I looked back at the crowd that formed just minutes after we left the Mona Lisa room, I realized how rare this experience was. Having space to really see her, and then being led through the Louvre’s greatest works, made me deeply grateful we chose LivTours.

  • Unforgettable Family Memory

    Traveling with our teenage daughters, we were nervous about their interest level. But seeing the Mona Lisa nearly alone captured their attention instantly. The guide kept them engaged with stories of art thefts and scandals, and by the end they were asking for more time in the museum.

    - Monica Alvarez
  • Well Worth the Investment

    Yes, it’s a splurge, but for art lovers or anyone who hates crowds, this is absolutely worth it. Our guide Santiago was fantastic, tailoring the explanations to our interests. It felt like a masterclass in art history delivered in the most iconic museum in the world.
