A wonderful journey into Art and History

Donna_L, Jul 2025
From the moment we arrived to the meeting our private tour guide, I knew this was going to be an amazing adventure. Not only were we going to learn about what was inside the museum, but the museum itself became a wonderful learning experience and deep dive into understanding art from many different perspectives. The time went by very fast. It was exceptional. Highly recommend you try this.

Our guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic, added a lot to the experience. Artwork was great, but building is the star.

Excellent use of our time and money

Steve_L, Aug 2023
Thorough and knowledgeable guide who explained the significant pieces from each artist, the history of their lives and the motivations for their creative periods. A guide is almost a necessity in this museum because it is laid out is such an unorthodox fashion. It was well worth the money to have her expertise as she guided us through in an efficient yet unhurried manner.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thank you very much for your words! This is very important for us and for future travellers as well. Please let us know if you need anything else. We are at your full disposal. Thank you once again. The Tour Travel & More Team

The advantage of visiting a museum with so much history and having each work and its artists explained to you is a welcome I did not expect.
