Private museums personalized tour experience - $305 USD
Bottom line: Would not recommend this tour if it were free.
Our guide was very nice and kind older woman. She offered water and gave us a complimentary local chocolate which was a surprise.
I had a private tour with my wife. She arrived late due to traffic (not a big deal). However, the guide did not have any knowledge regarding the museums or art. Also, her knowledge of English was rudimentary at best and not adequate to give a tour. There were many miscommunications throughout the day and felt the onus on us to try to understand what was going on when she did say something. She was very slow and the only insight she provided was reading off of the placard besides the artwork and an occasional, "this artist is famous." After telling the tour company that we were disappointed with the tour, they stated that "The product we sell is not an art of history oriented experience, but rather a visit to museums of your own choice..." Please save your money and get an uber to the museums you wish to visit. It is very easy and will save you loads of money and frustration. If you are interested in art and learning I'd go elsewhere. If you want a very expensive chauffeur who will slow you down please feel free to continue. Wish someone had let me know ahead of time.
Again, would not recommend this tour if it were free.
