Connected the dots; learned a ton; gave great historical context - Sophie was a great tour guide. Her knowledge of art was profound. I loved how she started slowly providing history and context finishing with the Impressionist masterpieces. Because of her stories and background provided, she was able to point out things about the famous pieces that made instant sense. It gave me a fresh look at pieces I have seen in my past.

History and art comes alive - Our guide was fantastic. She helped us understand the context and history that influenced the building and the art within it. I feel like I took a whole art history course in one morning.

Skip the time, learn a lot - We arrived early for our tour as requested. Alas, we still waited beyond our entry time to enter the building. Being part of a tour was essential. Otherwise, the line to get it would have take forever. Our guide was knowledgable but was not particularly engaging. She didn't seem passionate or enthusiastic about the museum, the history or the art. I am still glad we had a guide to help us learn more about the artwork we were viewing. I just wish she had been more passionate and more personable.
