Traveler reviews
Skip the lines!
The Museé gets very crowded, so be sure to book this tour to avoid all of the lines. Amalie, our guide, was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, giving us time at each piece but at the same time moving us along.

Wonderfully set up. Amelie was a great guide, spoke very clear and was so informative about the museum and the paintings inside.
Go Team Adam!
Our tour guide was Adam- and he was phenomenal! His enthusiasm was matched only by his knowledge base! He approaches the museum as a journey through art history and mixes his extensive art history knowledge with his background in science (PhD). This resulted in an intellectually stimulating tour, yet very fun and upbeat. We all learned so much and left with a feeling of truly experiencing the museum. Great guide and tour! We cannot say enough good things about “Team Adam”!

We had a very informative, enjoyable tour with Claire. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about the arts and shows it enthusiastically. One thing most enjoyable was how she connected the art and history of the period with very interesting stories. She also did a super job describing an artwork in one room, telling us to keep a certain something in mind, and making a connection with another piece by a different artist in another room. Claire was also quite good at moving around the crowds while still emphasizing the important pieces. I would gladly take another tour from her. Thanks, Claire!
Chaotic entrance, no skip the line
Finding the meeting location and tour guide is confusing and chaotic with museum employees giving you conflicting information and insisting there is no such thing as a ticket that "skips the line". Lovely museum though
