From the very first moment, Matilda captivated me with her warmth, passion, and extra-ordinary knowledge. She guided me through the Tate Modern not only with facts and context, but with genui-ne enthusi-asm for the stories behind each artwork. What I appreciated most was how she brought the art to life — weaving history, artists’ perspecti-ves, and her own insights into a narrative that felt both profound and acces-sible. She welco-med every question with pati-ence and care, and showed a real curiosi-ty for my own im-pressions and inter-pretations. This turned the tour into a true dia-logue, ma-king the experience all the more engaging and perso-nal. Time truly flew by, and I left the museum feeling inspired, enriched, and ener-gized. I wholehe-artedly recommend joining a tour with Matilda — let yourself be carried away by her energy, expertise, and passion for art. Thank you Matilda for this great birthday with you!

Luca was an amazing guide! Personable and knowledgeable, and able to bring Tate Modern to life for us. We are not experts in modern art at all, and Luca was able to explain and expand on select key pieces throughout the museum. We had a great education in an entertaining, fun way with Luca.

Luca was in touch immediately after booking and met us with a welcoming smile. He discussed the history of the Tate Art Museum and the art history of the area and surrounding countries. We started our tour with a selection of Luca’s but as we walked and stopped at any random piece or work, Luca would discuss the item and give the entire artist’s historical relevance and impact on the art world then and now. It was like looking through a magnifying glass at the artist’s frame of mind. You could picture the day and age of the time of its creation and almost feel the artist’s heart through the works. Luca was exactly the guide for an art novice like me but I’m sure he could go toe to toe with most art expert and hold his own. I would definitely book with him again and refer him to friends or family.

My tour guide was Luca! He was absolutely amazing. I do have a knowledge in the art world and been around many world museums with did guide, but what made Luca so special to me - because he is so passionate and extremely knowledgeable about his vocation and he generously shared all the knowledge he had. Being an Italian he deepened his knowledge in the museum archives of the most important olds master biographies, modern and contemporary art. I was blown away by small details he knew about all the artists I asked about and the arts on the view at the museum. Thank you so much. Left a huge positive impression after visiting the Tate Modern!
