    An amazing tour and tour guide

    I recently had a tour with Shane at the National Portrait Gallery and American Art Museum, and it truly exceeded my expectations. As someone aspiring to become a tour guide myself, I was blown away by Shane’s depth of knowledge and the way he turned history and art into captivating stories. He took me on a journey from the founding of America through the evolution of its culture, all the way to today—and made it interesting throughout the tour. Thanks so much Shane!

    Our tour guide and the content she covered were both excellent. She was very good with my kids and all their questions too. I definitely learned a lot more than I would have without the tour.

    Great art tour
