Masters of The Art World

Excellent guided tour of Two of the Most important Art museums of the World. The guides were interested, experts in teaching, enthusiastic and pleasant. I came away with a new critical eye for Art and its place in defining our history, culture and common humanity.

Fantastic visit with very knowledgeable guide

Lorena was a fabulous guide for the Prado and Reine Sophia museums. The museums are too large to visit without a guide. We would not have appreciated the significance and progression of the paintings without her.
