Expensive for an hour tour
It was advertised as a 2-3 hour tour and the guide was with us for approximately an hour. He was good but also was not told he was to do a 2-3 hour tour as he had another group.

We had a very knowledgeable guide who gave us a wonderful tour. So glad we took this tour. We would not have gotten through all that we did in the 2 hours we were there.

The place is so big that without a good guide it would be impossible to be easy to get completely lost. We had a great tour guide and we were able to see the main attractions.

Easy to find, went straight to Mona Lisa, bypassed long lines, easy access to museum and would highly recommend. We spent hours in the museum. It’s beautiful.

Plan your ticket purchase from the museum
We got to the meet point 5 minutes late and they left without us. I tried using the Viator text system to tell the tour guide we were going to be a little late but no response. Paris traffic delayed us. Out of our control. The phone number did not work as well. $180 US gone.

Louvre Museum Guided Tour with Orsay Museum Ticket Option: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.
How much does Louvre Museum Guided Tour with Orsay Museum Ticket Option cost?
+
Prices start at $56 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Louvre Museum Guided Tour with Orsay Museum Ticket Option take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paris is not rushed.
Is Louvre Museum Guided Tour with Orsay Museum Ticket Option worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 4,640 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Louvre Museum Guided Tour with Orsay Museum Ticket Option?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Louvre Museum Guided Tour with Orsay Museum Ticket Option suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Louvre Museum Guided Tour with Orsay Museum Ticket Option?
+
Around 1,624 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paris can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paris and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Louvre Museum Guided Tour with Orsay Museum Ticket Option start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paris within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Paris?
+
Paris rewards travelers who book ahead. The headline museums sell timed entry weeks out, the best food walks cap at eight people, and the Seine cruises that are worth doing are the ones that leave after sunset. Everything below is scored by the Outty Ranking so you can tell a genuine local favorite from a coach-tour filler in a single glance. On Outty we rank every Paris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based), Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Paris?
+
April to June and September to October, when queues thin out and terraces stay open late. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Paris?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
