Description

Many parents would love to bring their children to the Louvre, but are not sure that they would appreciate it. Sometimes museums tours seem too boring and art history is probably not the most passionate subject for children. However, this museum tour will be an entertaining adventure full of quizzes to be solved. Both children and adults can participate in this game while discovering some of the greatest masterpieces in the Louvre: Ancient Greek and Roman art, Ancient Egyptian civilization, the Italian Renaissance and, of course, the famous “Mona Lisa” by Leonardo da Vinci. As a result, during this tour, both children and their parents will have fun. Believe it or not, adults are often just as passionate about the game as their children.

    Oxana is the best museum guide we have ever had. She is informative and thoughtfully efficient. She manages a visit to the Louvre very well–she covers all of the major sites in depth without appearing to rush. Oxana is always our go-to guide when we bring relatives and friends to Paris.

  2. Marina Gupta

    Oxana was full of interesting historical stories , we really enjoyed the tour , our teenagers learned a lot in the Louvre ! I would recommend Oxana with pleasure

  3. Katita Palamar

    Oxana was a great guide for our kids in the Louvre (ages 10, 12, 12). We were tired but she kept them engaged with her quizzes. We saw the “highlights” and learned about the history of the building and about the ancient Greeks and Romans. I definitely recommend for a family tour, particularly with younger children.

  4. Michelle Mohammad

  5. Daniel Nadolny

    Oxana was wonderful and knowledgeable! She kept things interesting and engaging for our 6 year-old and was a wealth of knowledge for any questions we had. Highly skilled and highly recommended.

  6. MELIDA PEREZ

    Oxana was super fast with communications which put me at ease. She was on time and made our trip to the Louvre so much more enjoyable.

  7. VICTORIA BLANSHTEYN

    The Louvre could be daunting. Oxana has a vast knowledge and makes it fun and educational for kids.

  8. JEFF BRUNELLE

    The Louvre can be daunting, especially with young kids in tow. Oxana makes it manageable and fun, and clearly has vast knowledge of the relevant history. She communicates very well with kids.

  9. NATALIE LONTCHAR

    So hard to condense all that is in the Louvre to 2 hours but Oxana did an amazing job of giving us the highlights! Our two tweens had not been before and wanted to keep them interested and that definitely worked. They have been talking about what they saw that day and really enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend using her for a tour particularly if you have kids. It is just the right amount of time. She really was great.

  10. KRISTINE JARVI

    Oxana provided our family with an excellent tour of the Lourve. The tour was age appropriate (children aged 8 to 15) and engaged us all. We very much enjoyed the tour.

  11. WILLIAM MCGRATH

    Oxana was punctual and her English was excellent. Oxana was congenial, but incredibly efficient. She followed a thoughtful plan to assure that we would see all of items that were the must-sees for most first-time visitors. Oxana was sensitives to the diverse needs of our group members. We booked Oxana because of her background in fine arts. That proved to be a good choice. She made the Louvre come alive and provided excellent context about the Louvre and its treasures.

    For large museums we have found it’s best to get a tour guide that focuses on the kids. Oxana did not disappoint! She guided us through the museum like she was telling a story and had a few “quizzes” to solve. We saw terrific highlights of the museum and the kids really enjoyed it. Highly recommend!

    At the last minute I was inspired to book a private Louvre tour, and Oxana’s info came up readily on a google search. True to her website advice, she responded quickly. Her booking info was pertinent and helpful. I am embarrassed that we had an extremely jet lagged crew of 2 adults and 3 kids (14, 12, and 9) but Oxana stayed completely upbeat and undeterred despite my kids’ cringey eye rolls and nodding off. Oxana got us to less crowded entrances, empty bathrooms and plenty of advice on what options we had. I would love to book Oxana for any tour when we return to Paris. She is a gem!

    We had a great 2 hour tour of the Louvre. I learned a lot as did my partner and children. The youngest child(10) wasn’t thrilled but it maintained her attention and she learned a bit about art. I wanted my kids to have a learning experience rather than a ‘look and see’ and that’s exactly what we got!

    We visited the Louvre on one of the busiest days of the year, a Monday (when other museums are closed) in mid August, but Oxana managed to keep the attention of our 10 and 12 (English speaking) year old for a 2 hour+ tour in the very hot museum. Her quiz questions for the kids were fun for us adults too. Oxana is very easy going and having someone like her guiding you through the Louvre allowed our family to focus on the wealth the Louvre has to offer. Highly recommended!
