Pam was wonderful! She was incredibly knowledgeable about the full range of art and the artists themselves. We also appreciated the pace in which Pam conducted the tour; we could not have asked for a better time!

Alexandra provided a memorable tour of the various art pieces in the gallery. The visit is so meaningful when you have a guide explain the intricacies that aren’t at first recognizable. I highly recommend this tour.

Julie_S

Seeing artwork with a private guide was so much better than trying to be with the large crowds. Enjoyed

Our very knowledgeable guide (Anna) made the visit a very interesting time-travel by selecting various pieces (paintings and sculpture) of the main exhibition. She included professional explanations and anecdotes that made a very libely and unique tour of the museum.

Hi Maria, our guide excellent! She was knowledge and informative with all of the paintings we saw in the gallery. Unfortunately we needed to leave early and she did a good job accommodating us by seeing the last bit of important beautiful pieces before we left. I would recommend this tour:)
