Damiano was outstanding. Great knowledge, great culture, and sense of humor. Wonderful way to see and enjoy the important works within the museum. If you want to get a bit more exposure to the museum, you might plan on morning tour, lunch and going back through to hit what might have been missed outside of the major works covered by the 2 hour tour.

Our tour guide Damiano was very knowledgeable, friendly, and courteous. We enjoyed our tour and would highly recommend this tour.

Terrific experience with our guide, Damiano. He curated the best exhibits and skillfully shepherded us through the immense galleries. His superb knowledge of the many masterpieces was fantastic and quite educational. Damiano’s wit was an extra bonus for me and my 18 year old son! After our tour we had a solid foundation for remaining at the Gallery for several more hours to continue our exploration. Well worth it. Highly recommend.

Four of us were arriving from different parts of the city but our guide was very patient waiting for us to straggle in at various times. Even with a shortened tour due to our own tardiness, Damiano made every effort to show us the key pieces in the Gallery. He was thorough and very knowledgeable. It was the perfect introduction to this wonderful museum.

Marianna_V

Damiano was a great guide and our daughter liked him very much! He helped us with anything needed. Would definitely recommend this private tour!

Stefania was an amazing tour guide, she was able to distill the experience by taking us on a deep dive through some of the museum’s best pieces and explaining/showing us why they were important; the links and evolution of art, how it is reflective of the time it was made and also how it ties to art over all. There were many times I caught people around us straining to hear her presentation.

Damiano is a fantastic guide. We got lucky randomly booking him in March and saved his contact information to use him again for two more tours when we returned in May. He’s easy to communicate with, reasonable pricing, excellent handle on facts and history, pleasant presentation and overall a pleasure to do have take us now on 3 different tours. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience. My best visit to a gallery ever. Knowledgeable, attentive, friendly and humorous guide who selected an interesting collection of photos, making each stop an interesting experience in itself. Damiano was open to questions and comments, and made the whole trip feel like he was part of the group of friends who were on the trip. My friend booked the appointment with Damiano, and being guided by Damiano was the most positive surprise of the trip. I have already booked new tours with Damiano when I return to London with my family and am already looking forward to it.

La visita con Damiano è stata molto interessante e lui è riuscito a spiegare con passione e ricchezza di particolari. È stato inoltre piacevole avere una guida italiana.
