Great Guided Activity

You can get lost in the Louvre, which is great if you have 2 days to burn trying to see everything you wanted to see. We were able to do it in a few hours with a guide. Next time I'm in Paris, though, I'll likely book off two days to get lost and see as much as possible. I'm glad I did this, though, so I could see the pieces everyone expects to see when wandering the Louvre.

Unfortunately the guide had very little idea about the tour early

Came to the meeting point on time. When asked about works, she had to pass regularly because she only deals with the "big works". In addition, she spoke so softly that it was very difficult to understand. When asked about epochs or similar, she felt out of touch. For our children 11, 16, 19) it was absolutely boring. We then stopped the whole thing prematurely. In any case, you can save the money.
