Well worth the money to have a knowledgeable guide in the museum since it is crowded and spread out.

Thus was an excellent overview of Van Gogh. Our guide was very well informed of his works and had history stories behind the major works.

Fantastic tour with very knowledgeable and interesting guide, Giovanni. We learned so much about Van Gogh’s life and the stories behind the paintings. Only two other people plus me and my husband- perfect! My husband thought it would be “boring” but he thoroughly the tour and found it interesting and beautiful.

We had a wonderful tour with Martina. I am very thankful we booked a small group tour. We only had four people on our tour.! The museum was very crowded, but Martina sequenced her tour to take us to paintings as the crowds thinned in each area. She had images on an iPad to show us background information about the influences on Van Gogh’s painting. I am not normally an “art museum person”, but Martina educated me on Van Gogh, his influencers and his influence on other artists. I now have a much better understanding and appreciation of his work. Thank you, Martina!
