Exceptional Tour by Laura

Rob Mccullagh, 02 June 2025

We had a private tour arranged for my wife and I Monday May 19th. Unfortunately my wife was ill and could not attend so I attended by myself. Laura was my guide for the two museums. Laura's knowledge and expertise was apparent from the outset. She provided excellent background, historic information and context to everything throughout the tour. Of note is her overall knowledge of not only the art but the history of the times surrounding the art as well as the history of the building. The value of the tour was exceptional and without the tour she provided I would not have got 50% of the value of my trip to the museums. Thnka you Laura for an excdptional tour.

We really enjoyed the tour and Annabel, our tour guide, was excellent. She was very good at explaining and describing the places that we visited. We didn’t feel rushed or confused during our tour. I highly recommend taking this tour. Thank you, Annabel!
