Coisas para fazer em Île de la Cité

Interpreter Gong Ye-jin was truly impressive. She not only explained historical stories but also brought along photo materials to show us. She must have been more tired than us, who just followed and listened, but she even gave us candies in between, saying our energy might be low. She maintained her enthusiasm from beginning to end while explaining everything. We were also provided with free audio guides.

This was my first visit to the Louvre with my family. I was particularly worried about how to navigate a museum tens of times the size of a football field, especially with my parents. My biggest concern was paying a lot of money, struggling with walking, and not being able to see the famous artworks. So, I applied for a tour with a Korean guide, and to cut a long story short, it was the best choice of the trip! Purchasing tickets in advance was very easy, and we were able to enter quickly through the tour-only line without getting lost or waiting too long. I don't know where Chocolat Travel's customer service operates from, but they responded quickly even when I inquired in the evening during European time. For about 4 hours, we were able to enjoy the Louvre in a condensed way, seeing and hearing explanations about only the key artworks by era. Following the tour also required a lot of stamina. I can't imagine how we would have explored this huge museum without a guide. It was really interesting to listen to the explanations while they showed us visual aids in between. They also pointed out great photo spots and even explained the best positions and angles to view the artworks, making the tour truly enriching. Thanks to this, we even managed to see the Mona Lisa up close! Honestly, I was worried that the viewing time might be too short compared to the museum's size, but just doing the tour is enough. Navigating through the huge crowds really takes a lot of energy, haha. Unless you've visited the Louvre multiple times, if it's your first visit, I highly recommend enjoying the tour with a guide! Many thanks to certified guide Kim Shin-ah, who led our tour :)

The restaurant offers a wide variety of delicious food, and we had both breakfast and lunch there. The entrance to the Egyptian exhibition area was difficult to find, and there were so many stairs, which was really tiring. The Mona Lisa queue was packed with people, and some took too long to take photos, preventing those behind them from moving forward. There are many precious exhibits worth remembering.

Thank you for guiding us so efficiently through the Louvre Museum. Your professional guidance and explanations were very helpful. The Friday evening night tour was not too crowded, which was great. After listening to your explanations, I could vividly recall 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! ^^

The guide, Mauve, was excellent. Lots of enthusiasm and explained everything in detail. It was also very easy to find the guide at the meeting point with clear instructions. The guide covered the major highlights of the Louvre, and you could walk around on your own after the tour. The tour took about an hour. Highly recommend!

It was a pleasure to explore one of the world's most amazing museums, with so much to learn about history. Unfortunately, the Islamic section was closed due to renovation. Entry was easy and smooth; it's better to arrive at your selected time slot, but if you can't, they still let people in through a different entrance.

I came with my wife for the first time, and the explanation was so good and immersive that we thoroughly enjoyed the Louvre. Thank you!

During this Louvre Museum tour, guide Yeo Yu-yeong explained the artworks from a different perspective than the usual descriptions, based on her professional knowledge. Thanks to her, I was able to gain a deep understanding not only of the artworks but also of French history. It was a truly valuable and impressive experience, and I highly recommend this tour.
