A very nice museum, and we loved the whole tour. Our guide Claude was great - easy to listen to, great energy all the time and avoiding the crowds was so smooth! I was excited to see Renoir’s Bal du moulin de la Galette as that is my father’s favorite painting. It felt so special to see it in person. Overall, the Orsay private tour was very informative and valuable for us, with all the deep insights. I would gladly recommend it for anyone wanting a more personalized and engaging visit.
Pick-up worked fine and was useful since we had limited time. The tour was quite easy-going. We skipped the line and were inside before we knew it. The exhibitions were amazing, especially Vincent van Gogh’s Starry Night Over the Rhône. Such a nice building, beautiful architecture, I loved it! If your budget allows, you’ll treasure every moment of the Orsay Museum private tour.
