Great experience but expensive. - Our tour guide was very good. She provided a perspective position to pieces of art that we wouldn’t have known. She was very well educated in the Impressionist era. She knew how to navigate the crowds.

Guided tour of Musee D’Orsay - We had a wonderful 2 hour guided tour with a lady who was a professor at the Sorbonne. She was very knowledgeable, passionate about impressionism, and a pleasure to talk to about our favorite artists!

10 STAR Tour Guide CHRISTOPHE, Fabulously knowledgeable, Engaging, HIGHLY RECOMMEND;Professional Tour Guide Co - TOUR GUIDE Fabulous & Engaging Tour Guide CHRISTOPHE with encyclopedic knowledge of art history. He met us outside by the Rhino statue at the Musee d’Orsay on time holding a placard w/our name making it so easily identifiable among the many tour groups also meeting in front of the rhino statue. We had our online tickets previously purchased so was able to sail in without issue. Christophe’s English was perfect and understandable. He was extremely knowledgeable and we learned so much. He gave us wonderful context from the beginnings of the d’orsay museum to the background history, cultural & political movements happening during the time of the paintings. We walked to select paintings representing the movements and he explained the significance behind the paintings pointing out aspects in the paintings of what viewers at the time would seen and how they would have interpreted the messages in the paintings. We were enlightened with amazing amount of information and interesting facts and lots of funny anecdotes. He was able to answer all of our questions. Extremely friendly and engaging. Not anything like a lecture. It was like having a friend show us around and having a conversation while walking around the museum. We felt our time with him flew by and actually wanted more of his accompanying narrative. After we parted, we walked around the museum by ourself some more to view the other paintings we missed but had a greater appreciation of the other works. Wonderful morning & so worth the money we spent for the Tour Guide of the d’Orsay Museum TOUR COMPANY ( A TASTE OF PARIS - VOYAGES LLC ) Extremely responsive & professional tour guide co, great communications, answered all our pre tour questions quickly. Well organized and package was reasonably priced. Made it abundantly clear museum tickets were not included in tour price and we had to purchase tix on our own prior to. I think what’s confusing potential customers is the “Skip the Line” wording in the tour description. Most readers would interpret that as including tix in the price of the package. We did enter through a quicker entryway perhaps but there wasn’t much of a line the day we went. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Tour Guide Christophe & would engage Tour Company again. 10 Star Tour Guide CHRISTOPHE, fabulously knowledgeable, Engaging, HIGHLY RECOMMEND;Professional Tour Guide Co
