Great museum - This museum is one of the best we have ever visited. We booked a private tour, which we recommend for anyone wanting the best experience. The museum is large and has many things to see and learn about. Our guide, Elvira, was very good, knowledgeable, and informative, and improved the experience. She could answer all of our questions and gave us excellent insight into history.
