Visiting the Louvre at 10 AM with a reservation was a fantastic experience. The short line allowed for quick entry, and the morning ambiance was serene. I enjoyed exploring masterpieces like the Mona Lisa without crowds. The natural light through the glass pyramid enhanced the beauty of the art. Highly recommended for an unforgettable morning!

It is very suitable for people who like to visit places. If you want to carefully taste a specific museum, you can consider buying a ticket for a specific museum and then buying a two-day museum pass!

Of course the Mona Lisa is amazing, but the works that I didn't know much about are also wonderful. Above all, the scale of the museum's splendor is something you can never experience in Japan. Tickets must be purchased in advance to enter (there are no same-day tickets!), so it's best to buy them through Klook.

Loved our cruise on the River Seine. Boarding was smooth and efficient. The commentary was available over the loud speakers on the boat, and also via a phone attached to every seat. The cruise is an excellent way to see the beautiful landmarks dotted along the river. It worked out well for us as the jetty is just a short walk from the Eiffel Tower. We did the day cruise and enjoyed every minute. Highly recommended.

As soon as we entered the museum, our tour guide immediately took us to see all the must-see treasures in the Louvre. So we didn't miss anything we wanted to see, but we strongly recommend that you choose our session, because more and more people want to see Mona Lisa later, so it will be difficult to find and squeeze in to see Mona Lisa in the front.

The three hours I spent with guide Kim Bo-ra were truly precious, and even I, a layman in the art world, was able to have a more in-depth museum tour thanks to the guide's explanations, so I am so grateful. I would like to sign up for another tour and meet you again. Thank you for giving me precious memories.
