Hi there! Nice to meet you

Hello, my name is Julien and I love the Louvre and Orsay museum. Sometimes I feel that these museums are a bit like 2nd houses for me as I spend a lot of time giving tours but also because I love to go to Louvre and Orsay in low season to explore new artworks and create stories about them.

First of all, Julien was spectacular!!! BUT, tickets were not available when we showed up when our voucher specifically stated not to buy tickets and just pay cash to Julien who would have the tickets. Your website should state to purchase the tickets at the same time you book a guide!?!?! But he helped us reschedule another day, but the tickets available had to be a package so we’re a lot more money. Once on the tour with Julien, he was remarkable with information and stories to make the experience memorable!Leuvre

The tour of the D'Orsay with Julien was great! First, Julien offered to buy the tickets for us before the tour to save time (we, of course, reimbursed him for the tickets) - it was wonderful that we could just meet him at the entrance and walk into the museum. Once the tour began, Julien's knowledge of the artists and their works was incredible and he kept us engaged throughout the time. We felt that we saw and learned so much during our time together. And when we needed a little break during the tour, Julien was so accomodating and immediately pivoted to explaining other art pieces to us while we rested. Julien is a master storyteller and made the tour so much fun! We highly recommend a tour with Julien! And thank you again, Julien! We're so appreciative.Wonderful tour of the D'Orsay with Julien!

Communication with Julien prior to the day of the tour was great! He kept us informed of all of the important details, including the place to meet him on the day of the tour. He purchased our admission tickets to the Louvre in advance, and was waiting in the line to enter the museum before it opened. Once it opened we very quickly made our way to see the Mona Lisa and it gave us a great view before the crowds arrived. He continued yes to point out the highlights of the Louvre and explained a lot of detail in the paintings to really help us understand the artists perspective. It was a fantastic way to see the highlights and avoid the crowds and lines as much as possible. Great Louvre Tour

Julien was a fantastic guide for my family of 4 (two adults and two teens). He was so knowledgable and the tour was interesting. We were also one of the first to get in to view the Mona Lisa before the crowds arrived. He is also just very kind and easy going. Highly recommend! Explore the Louvre with a Local Guide

Our private Louvre tour with Julien was an absolute highlight of our trip. He is deeply knowledgeable, fun, attentive, and very thoughtful. He covered the highlights beautifully, shared the history of the palace, showed us points of interest from the windows, and listened to our art interest. Such a delight evening! We highly recommend Julien!!OUTSTANDING!!

My wife, our two adult daughters, and I had the pleasure of visiting the Louvre with Julien. It quickly became clear that Julien not only shared his deep passion for the museum’s history and art, but also took the time to get to know his guests to ensure the experience was perfectly tailored from the very first moments inside the museum. We learned so many fascinating details about numerous artworks and the museum itself — he's undoubtedly one of the best guides we’ve ever had! A huge thank you from Switzerland, and a well-deserved 10 out of 10 rating! 😊Close to perfect :)

Julien led a tour for me, my wife, and our 10 year old and 7 year old children and we loved it! Julien was terrific with the kids and made sure they were entertained and educated throughout. We learned so much, not only about the art work, but about the history of the Louvre itself. He clearly has a passion for art. Highly recommended. Fantastic Louvre tour

Juliane was amazing! We toured the Louvre with our 11 and 7 year old daughters. My husband is a history teacher and has spent many years teaching Art History. Julien was able to keep everyone engaged! The Louvre was our girls favorite part of Paris, thanks to the amazing tour we had!! Cannot recommend enoughGreat Family Tour!
