Rijksmuseum tour

Clare was a very good guide - full of information and enthusiasm. We appreciated the historical context she provided around the rise of the Dutch Masters and their subject matter. It made the viewing of the art much more meaningful. Clare gave us full value and more! We would highly recommend her.
