Anatole was an excellent tour guide. He shared interesting and informative facts.We saw the way Rodin could have been thinking as he created his masterpieces.

What a terrific tour. We expected the Rodin Museum to be special, and it was. But what kicked it up to an even a level higher was our guide, Anatole. Knowledgeable, bright, funny is the best way to describe him. We've had many tour guides. but none have been better. Highly recommend Anatole to get an inside picture of Rodin and what made him tick.

Hugo is the best guide! Funny, knowledgeable and flexible - what more could you want? My wish is to go to every Parisian museum with Hugo as a guide

Semi private tour became private due to our lucky timing of our trip. Bel was amazing. Easy going and pleasant and extremely knowledgeable. By the end of the tour we thought we’d earned diplomas from the vast art history education she shared with us. She was very flexible and really clued us into the truly valuable sculptures, their background, their meaning. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

We had a wonderful private tour of the Rodin Museum in German with our guide Marcel. Although I had already read up on Rodin before our trip, my girlfriend and I learned so much new stuff. Marcel made his tour so pleasant and answered all of our questions brilliantly. He also showed lots of pictures and provided lots of explanatory quotes from Rodin's time. He really is an art historian with a talent for getting other people excited about his subject. If you don't just want to take pictures of Rodin's thinker, but want to understand this great artist, this...

This was our second tour with Hugo, and it proved just as delightful as the first! Hugo's storytelling and artful explanations truly immerse you in the experience and provoke deep emotions. He is a tour guide and philosopher rolled into one! Hugo will always be our top choice when exploring our favorite city, Paris. Highly recommended!

We did the private tour of Musee Rodin with Belen. The tour was absolutely wonderful. Belen is incredibly warm, friendly, funny, knowledgeable and more than anything, very passionate! We truly felt that we got so much more out of the museum having experienced it with a guide and I genuinely learned so many things. I would highly recommend!

Malaika was a very knowledgeable guide. She was on time, the check in was smooth, and she had a wealth if knowledge about Rodin, his life, his art, and artists at the time. She shared interesting facts and tidbits. Highly recommend her!One thing she did that I appreciated was to send the actual museum tickets to us beforehand. We could go inside and use the facilities while waiting for her and not wait in the heat. The importance of this became obvious when we booked another tour to Louvre by Get Your Guide and City Wonders. They do not send...

We had a phenomenal tour of the Rodin museum with Hugo. He explained the history behind the pieces in a way that was interesting and entertaining, and we left with a much greater appreciation of the works than we would have had otherwise.

We had a spectacular tour thanks to Sunday, the name of our tour guide. She was extremely knowledgeable and provided a fun, deeply interesting with a lot of humor narrative of Rodin, bringing to life the man and his talents in both the context of his time and his influence on art going forward. I’ve been to the Rodin museum before, but the experience with Sunday seemed like I had not been there before. We learned so much and had a fantastic time. Thank you Sunday!
