Our English speaking... - Our English speaking guide, Clare K., was excellent. Her knowledge was comprehensive and impressive, making all the particular art works we saw thru her eyes come to life. I highly recommend taking the 2-hour tour of the Rijksmuseum with her. And the communications and organization with Viator was also excellent. A great experience overall!

One of our best museum tours - What an amazing tour! Our guide Martinas was wonderful. She is soooo knowledgeable about the art in this museum. She shared so many details of each exhibit with us. I wish I could retain even 10% of what we learned. Take this tour and ask for her.

Touring the art museum - Seeing a Rembrandt being refurbished. The tour guide was very good. Van Gogh was mediocre as they had moved a lot of the paintings and didn’t indicate they were gone

Fantastic experience - Fantastic! The guide was very well informed and did an excellent job. The trip was postponed by 3 hours, but, the agency did an excellent job to reach out to us the day before you try and reschedule.
