We recently had Antoine as our guide for a tour of the d'Orsay and had a wonderful experience. He was funny, knowledgeable and did a great job of engaging with the group. The stories he shared about each piece of art were both memorable and thought-provoking and we learned so much. We would highly recommend Walks and Antoine as a guide!

The guide, Simon, was really interesting. He had a story to tell about the contact and development of the Impressionists and used examples to illustrate his point. It was so much more entertaining than looking at each room in turn and reading the guide/signs/listening to audio. After the tour, you could stay and return to areas you wanted to revisit. The only slight issue was that the route started with a toilet stop, the queue for the ladies was, as ever, very slow.
