Things to do in Grands Boulevards

Our guide, Ms. Gong Ye-jin, not only explained the historical stories but also showed us photo materials. She must have been more tired than us, who just followed along and listened, but she even gave us candies when our energy levels dropped. We were so touched that she maintained her enthusiasm from beginning to end while explaining everything. She also provided free audio receivers.

This was my first visit to the Louvre with my family. I was particularly concerned about how we would navigate a museum many times the size of a football field, especially with my parents. My biggest worry was paying a lot of money, struggling with all the walking, and then missing out on seeing the famous artworks. So, when I heard there was a tour with a Korean guide, I signed up, and to cut to the chase, it was the best decision of our trip! Purchasing tickets in advance was very easy, and we were able to enter quickly through the tour-exclusive line without getting lost, with minimal waiting. I'm not sure where Chocolat Travel's customer service operates from, but they responded quickly even when I inquired in the evening during European time. Over approximately four hours, we were able to see and hear explanations about only the key artworks, organized by era, allowing us to enjoy the Louvre in a condensed way. Even just following the tour required a lot of stamina. I can't imagine how we would have explored such a massive museum without a guide. It was truly enjoyable to listen to the explanations, with visual aids shown periodically. The guide also pointed out perfect photo spots and explained the best positions and angles to view the artworks, making the tour incredibly fulfilling. Thanks to this, we successfully viewed the Mona Lisa from a close distance! Honestly, I was worried that the viewing time might be too short given the museum's scale, but the tour alone was sufficient. Navigating through the huge crowds really takes a lot of energy, haha. Unless you've visited the Louvre multiple times, if this is your first visit, I highly recommend enjoying a tour with a guide! Many thanks to certified guide Kim Shin-ah, who led our tour :)

The saying "you see as much as you know" is perfectly true. Thank you so much, Guide Choi Jun-ho. Due to changes made by other teams, we had a great opportunity to have a private tour. I was personally worried because my knowledge was quite lacking, but he explained everything in an easy-to-understand way, tailored to my level, and I could feel his passion for the Louvre, which made me realize that hiring a guide was an excellent decision! Personally, I had low expectations after feeling a bit disappointed with the guide during my Rome Vatican tour, but his explanations were so good that I was completely engrossed. I also felt even more strongly that a guided tour is essential because phone service is often poor inside museums and art galleries, making it difficult to get AI assistance, and the sheer number of artworks is overwhelming!

The restaurant offers a wide variety of delicious food, and we had both breakfast and lunch there. The entrance to the Egyptian exhibit was difficult to find, and there were so many stairs, which was really tiring. The Mona Lisa had a huge crowd, and some people took too long to take photos, preventing others from moving forward. There are many precious items and memorable spots worth seeing.

Thank you for the excellent guidance on how to efficiently explore the Louvre Museum. Your professional guidance and explanations were incredibly helpful. The Friday evening night tour was not too crowded, which was great. After listening to your explanations, I vividly remembered everything I heard at each place we visited, making me feel that taking the guided tour was an excellent decision. Thank you to our kind and friendly guide!
