This 2.5 hour exclusive guided museum tour will show you the world’s most iconic artists inside two extraordinary buildings. The National Gallery of Art in Washington DC is a world-class museum housing an incredible timeline of Western Art from the old masters of the Renaissance to the quintessential personalities of the 20th Century. Raphael, Rembrandt, Renoir, Picasso, and Rothko are just a handful of artist on view (as well as Vigee le Brun, Cassatt, and O’Keeffe). Take excursion through the changes of history as told by magnificent works of art - money, power, war, hope, and triumph. From the intimacy of a da Vinci portrait to sweep of a Monet to the bold strokes of a Kandinsky, you will be dazzled by the vast holdings and the stories that accompany them. You’ll delight over familiar names and hidden gems while our passionate guides navigate you through notable highlights of technique and artwork from over the past seven centuries.

    Enter the National Gallery of Art and follow your guide through one of America’s best collections of artwork produced by Renaissance artists, French Impressionists, and great American painters. See works from Claude Monet, Raphael, Gilbert Stuart, and Edgar Degas, as well as more modern artists like Picasso, Pollock, Warhol, and O’Keefe, as you learn what’s really behind the creation of some of these pieces.

Extraordinary art museum in view of the masterpieces on display. The contemporary architecture of the extension (signed Peï) is superb and the place less frequented. A special mention for the tunnel uniting the 2 buildings with rolling pavement, parade of lights and especially a waterfall animated the cafeteria in the basement.

Of all the tour guides that I have used across Europe or the US, Leigh definitely makes it into my top 3! She has this passion for what she decides to cover within the museum that is hard to beat. She can also quickly grasp what it is that is of interest to you specifically and will happily rearrange her tour plans to take that into account. I have saved her contact details for the next time I am in DC!
