5.00Martina gave us an incredible tour for 2 hours! We were fortunate to have a really small group for our tour which made it even better. She was extremely knowledgeable and encouraged us to get closer to the paintings to really understand the details. Would recommend to anyone seeking a tour at the museum! She tied a lot of the pieces in the museum together and the different rooms.
Great.
