Luca, was so well versed and knowledgeable about all of the art work. We learned more than we expected in the time we were with him. He chose works of art that truly highlighted the National Gallery of London. I hope that when you visit, you get Luca!

Enjoyed an insightful private tour with Luca. He showed me things I would have bypassed on my own. His knowledge and passion for the arts made for a very enjoyable tour.
