Musée d'Orsay Family Tours

Great tour and I learnt so much. Arrie was knowledgeable on the various paintings. Really takes you through the highlights of the museum. I was late but the local operator number I called was very helpful and I managed to get into the museum and find the group.

Even on a rainy evening we loved the river cruise. The lights are so beautiful and it is amazing how many landmarks you can see from the river. The bridges of Paris are best seen from the water. The narrator was interesting and he made sure that we recognized the major monuments and buildings along the way.

This was a great way to see some of the beautiful sights of Paris, but in order to hear the guided portion you have to be inside the boat on the main level rather than up top on the outside seats. This meant choosing between having a closer open air view of the city or knowing what I was actually looking at. I would still go on this river cruise again but would have liked to know this ahead of time.

I am so happy I chose to do a tour instead of roaming the museum myself. Liliya Goldenberg Was my tour guide and the way she lead us through the museum was perfect. She taught me so much about the rise of Impressionism and what the world was like when these artists came on the scene. She had so many great stories about the different artists that you don’t see on the plaques by the paintings. One was a theory that Van Gogh did not cut of his own ear. Want to hear the full story? You will have to take her tour. A+ I left knowing a lot more about Art History along with seeing these masters work in person.

Having read the reviews we planned our day for the 5/5:30pm ferry to see the city at night. On arrival the line was horrendously long, at least a few hours wait. As we had a dinner reservation so we had to come back again later ((which was very annoying as we were the other side of town so multiple train tickets were purchased)). We came back for the 10pm trip which was fairly empty and were the last group to attend the ferry. We weren't disappointed - was amazing to see the city at night with hardly anyone upstairs. We used our phone for the commentary but at times was nice to just take in the sights. Shame the company don't ticket the time slots to avoid initial disappointments with queing.

they were super nice and the time flew by. If you sit on the deck you wont have the audioguide but if you sit downstares there will be enough guide-phones for everyone. One of the workers kept informing the entire boat (the deck too) whenever we were passing bye an important sight, to make aure we wouldn't miss it. It was great!

Our guide, Lilly, was deeply knowledgeable and a wonderful story teller. She was able to pull the pieces in the museum into an overall narrative of the progression of art in France. It was very educational and very fun. She spent time pointing out the "jokes" and secrets that you might not notice as a lay person.

The Musee d’Orsay, as beautiful as it is, literally came life with our excellent guide Anja. Her enthusiasm and knowledge of the history and importance of the art was mesmerizing. She was a delight to be with and we cannot thank her enough for taking us along on her magnificent journey through the Musee d’Orsay. Ten stars would not be enough! Don’t miss this beautiful experience.

We went on a Mon and was told it was closed for private event and told to come back next day. The cruise was much bigger than expected. Most people went to the upper deck to catch the views outside but soon, most came down to the lower deck which was warmer since now is winter. Value for money considering is an-hour cruise ride. Just relax and enjoy and scenery.

This has been the second time we have had a guided tour of Musee D’Orsay. While both were highly focused on detail and very informative, Jessica had a unique approach and depth that was well focused and meaningful.

Lucineia was fabulous! So informative and made the museum very interesting for my 8 yr old daughter. In fact, Zoe said this was one of her favorite things she did in Paris!

The guide was pretty good. I recommend sticking with a group of six or smaller, as it can be hard to hear the guide and walk around in a larger group. The guide was friendly, but I wish she went into more detail about the history or technique behind certain paintings. The museum itself is wonderful and definitely worth exploring.

An enjoyable and informative tour. A fantastic way to get a feel for the art, the museum and the history associated with both. About the right length too, not too short or long, and left us with the opportunity to explore more at the end of the tour.

Good tour. Guide was on-time, meeting location easy to find. Group entry allowed us to avoid a long line for general admission. Guide gave understandable explanations, good for new to intermediate level of prior knowledge of impressionism. Meal in the museum's restaurant was enjoyable and convenient.

Our guide provided a wonderfully coherent overview to the Musee d Orsay. She was very knowledgable and conveyed her comments on each painting with insight and clarity. She was constantly aware of the group and encouraged and answered questions fully. She did a wonderful job and is a credit to your organization.

Daniel was a perfect guide with his vast knowledge of art. He was, by far, the best guide I have ever had. We had a great time!!

6 days in Paris with a group of 6 adults/young adults, saw all the sights, museums. We unanimously agreed that this tour with Mila R was the highlight! Felt like a walking college art history tour with top professor. Fast paced, lively, loaded with context. Only regret is we wished we could have added an hour, then taken Mila to lunch. She is a lovely person and fantastic guide.

My family and (3 people) joined this tour in Dec 2022. Booked online, went to the banks of the Seine opposite the Eiffel Tower, then embarked on an exciting journey, seeing parts of Paris by river. Since we left just before sunset, Paris with the lights on and the Eiffel Tower looking golden, were truly the unforgettable sights.

Our delightful guide was prompt, pleasant and very considerate. He was interesting and articulate. He had a well-considered plan for the tour of this great museum so that we could grasp the topic in a way that makes it possible to remember it. We definitely left with a greater knowledge of artists from late 19th century France than when we arrived. All-in-all, our tour was a wonderful experience and my husband and I consider this time and money very well-spent.

I gave our guide, Oliver, a very difficult task to help me recreate my year as a student in Paris. He was charming, knew his art history, got us in and out of the museum on time. This guided tour was a total self-indulgence on my part. I was short on time and visiting Paris for perhaps the final time. It was a treat to be a "student" once again. The only negative is that the company expected me to "review" the tour immediately. I was enjoying a trip and kept my "internet" time to a minimum. Let a client get home before requesting a review! Please don't send repeated requests. If a client enjoyed your services, they will post as soon as they are able. Thank you, Oliver!
