Traveler reviews
Fun and fascinating.
We had a great experience and learned so much about the national Gallery of art. Seeing it in person really helps make it stick. AlthoughI have lived in DC for nearly 50 years, I did not really know my way around the Gallery until this tour. Our tour guide, Claudia, was Kknd, fun, and very knowledgeable. I would recommend this for everyone who wants to know more about art in general, and especially the National Gallery of Art.
National art gallery
Our tour guide was Christina. She was very friendly and knowledgeable. She asked what are favorite paintings were and made sure we saw them. She not only showed us some important pieces but also provided details about the painting and the artist. I am so glad I chose a private tour of the National Gallery of Art in DC. I only hope that in future visits to any art museums I am fortunate enough to have someone like her.
