Wonderful guide. Provided a deeper understanding of artist and their method of expression and communication to their peers and masters.
Small group with Julien.
super happy whit the person who did the tour for my hubby and I thank you very much
This Tour was a wonderful experience!! The processing of booking was very fast and convenient. The tour itself was spectacular! The length was perfect, as well as all of the information and history given. What made it extraordinary was our tour guide, Herve. He was well prepared, and knew the material very well. From a senior to child, we were all very engaged and left feeling and having a better understanding of the Museum. He would give us a more detailed explanation by using his Ipad to show the time periods, which gave us a more detailed and fuller experience. He was very friendly and pleasant, one of the most knowledgeable tour guides I have had the pleasure of accompanying. I will definitely book again! This is the first place I would start on my next trip there!
Our guide, Herve was amazing and provided excellent insights and knowledge around all the artist. Gave us a great understanding to then enjoy the museum and its works even further. This tour is a must.
