I had Steph and she was wonderful, so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The tour was fully thought out and researched, and hit a perfect balance of learning but not pure academia.
100% recommend.

This was an incredible start to my weekend! I went on the tour with my sister today and we loved Steph's infectious enthusiasm and knowledge for her subject. Steph told the stories of the female painters we explored in such a captivating way, it was hard not to want to become both the best friend of these historic female painter's and Steph's! I learnt a huge amount and the tour has left me hungry to learn more about women in art. Steph made some great reading recommendations which I am keen to follow up on. An amazing way to celebrate the week of International Women's Day.

I loved the way Becky was able to explain everything throughout the museum making it easier to understand what we were seeing since we didn’t have audio guides. She’s super sweet and fun made everyone feel comfortable in a new country.
