The female guide was excellent- Laurence. She was very knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommended both her and the two hr louvre highlight tour.

Great
Viator gave lousy instructions prior to the tour. My group of 4 people ran around like crazy trying to find a pre ticket meeting place so we can then meet up with our tour guide. News alert Viator, there is no place and your directions were miserable as well. If I had not booked my second excursion with you, going for a dinner cruise, which also was a tuff place to find, I would not be booking any excursions in the future. Obviously, you people have work to do in order to regain my trust.

What can I bring inside the Louvre Museums?
Please note that the Louvre will not allow large items inside the museum, so you should bring only a small daypack or handbag. More specifically, only bags smaller than 21.5 in x 13.5 in x 7.5 in (55 cm x 35 cm x 20) cm are permitted. Suitcases and large bags must be left outside. Closed, clear bottles of water are allowed inside the Louvre however food is forbidden inside the site. Please be advised that the use of selfie sticks and flash photography is not allowed inside the Louvre. Additional security checks may cause longer waits at unavoidable security lines at times.
Can you guarantee that I will see every room in the Louvre listed here?
We can't guarantee it, but it's very likely. As with all museums, particular galleries of the Louvre may be closed without prior notice, or pieces may be removed for restoration or loan. In this case, your guide will make an appropriate substitution. However, as the pieces and the rooms we visit on our tour are the most important in the museum, these are the ones least likely to close or leave on loan.
Do I need to bring an ID with me on this tour?
Yes! Please ensure that all members of your party, including children, have a valid ID on them on the day of the visit.
