Terrific Tour with Damiano - Terrific experience with our guide, Damiano. He curated the best exhibits and skillfully shepherded us through the immense galleries. His superb knowledge of the many masterpieces was fantastic and quite educational. Damiano’s wit was an extra bonus for me and my 18 year old son! After our tour we had a solid foundation for remaining at the Gallery for several more hours to continue our exploration. Well worth it. Highly recommend.

Don't just see but understand the top paintings! - Four of us were arriving from different parts of the city but our guide was very patient waiting for us to straggle in at various times. Even with a shortened tour due to our own tardiness, Damiano made every effort to show us the key pieces in the Gallery. He was thorough and very knowledgeable. It was the perfect introduction to this wonderful museum.

Wonderful In Depth Guide - Stefania was an amazing tour guide, she was able to distill the experience by taking us on a deep dive through some of the museum’s best pieces and explaining/showing us why they were important; the links and evolution of art, how it is reflective of the time it was made and also how it ties to art over all. There were many times I caught people around us straining to hear her presentation.
