The simplicity is the functionality of the portal allows for accurate service. We also avoided standing in a long line at the entrance , the rest is credit to the museum for both its location and the artistic value of the paintings on display

I think the most beautiful museum I have ever visited, too bad that due to a technical problem in the museum, despite the fast-track ticket, we waited quite a long time to get in. It was still worth it, though. Superlative the Impressionists section but really interesting also the sections on minor French artists.

The museum itself is a fabulous building and well worth seeing. Inside we enjoyed stolling through the statuary in the main atrium. We also visited the side rooms filled with great artwork including a great exhibit of impressionist and post impressionist works by Monet, Manet, Gaugin, Van Gogh and many more. One of the best things was the spaciousness, so we never felt cramped or rushed. It was a wonderful visit.

I love watching peoples reactions to L'Origine du monde by Courbet. It is a very graphic depiction of a naked woman in a most intimate pose. People become self conscious being seen looking at the painting. Some can't even look at it. Pity but comical.

The museum was great and the audio-guide works. But the fact that I have to go to the Head out app to get my tickets was a hassle. It wasn't sent in the email, said my ticket is in the app so I needed to install the app (I have no more phone memory and poor internet data.) We were almost denied entry because I do not have an internet roaming and the ticket is in the app, unlike other ticketing online that sends pdf file on the email confirmation with my free internet. We went out of the museum to get better data coverage in order to install the app and get my tickets 😆

I should have downloaded the audio guide before arriving at the venue. This was written in your description, but I neglected doing it, and then arrived at the venue expecting to do it, and I couldn't bc the service was bad outside the venue, and I realized I needed to research the areas I wanted to tour BEFORE I got to the venue so I could download them. The QR code and email I received with purchase said no where on it that I was going to receive a WHATSAPP message to click through to receive my actual PDF ticket. So while in line I had to call customer service and he directed me to the WhatsApp message where I downloaded the PDF (which took a LONG time since the service in the line was so bad -- likely due to the huge crowds) There didn't seem to be any benefit to skipping the line with my purchased ticket. Maybe that wasn't part of my purchase? But I had to stand with hundreds of other people who also had a 1pm scheduled visit.

The waiting time was shortened to about 30 min, so bcp more pleasant and we had more time for the visit.To do again, because the Louvre is very large and we saw only a part. The tickets were sent by WhatsApp, it took me a while to understand the procedure, I was expecting to find them on the app directly.

The ticket was for 12:30 p.m.; you should inform us in advance that many other visitors have also booked for this time and that there will therefore be long waiting times at the entrance.

We so enjoyed the Louvre, and would advise people to get the audio guide. (The tickets make it sound like the guide is somehow included, and there was some downloading process on our phones we couldn't make work). Instead use the museum's Nintendo device you rent and find the option that locates you and click on objects in the room.

The museum it's self is such an amazing and beautiful building, you are blown away before you get inside. Once you get through the epic que, grab a map (there is one available in every language), then make a plan of what you want to see. The Mona Lisa is a must! Great cafes on site, as well ad shopping opportunities in the gift shops and further shops underneath the museum.

Beautiful location with a great collection. We were there on Friday morning between 10am and 1pm. Then there were 2800 visitors in the museum, but it did not feel like very full. the collection is very nice and the exhibition rooms are nicely decorated. Signage and descriptions accompanying the paintings are good.

River cruise was a very nice experience (there was a snow storm that day and it was great to be under a roof and still enjoy the views around you). Our Eiffel Tower tour was rescheduled because of the weather conditions and the tower was closed that day. The customer service was really compliant and responsive and they rescheduled the tour really quickly. The instructions to the meeting points were clear and our guide in Eiffel was super friendly and helpful. Really recommend!!
