We absolutely loved our tour of the National Gallery with Kathy. It was not only informative but thoughtfully structured, making it easy to follow and connect the dots between different artists and time periods. Even some of the more well-known pieces took on new life after learning the fascinating stories behind them. Kathy was professional, well-organized, and brought just the right touch of humor to keep things engaging. I would highly recommend her as a guide — she truly elevated the experience.

Kathy was so knowledgeable and pleasant. We did not know much at all about art or the history behind it. She taught us so much!
