Guided tour with Paola

Published on Jan, 2025

I toured Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh with Paola and thoroughly enjoyed my time with her! She has such a wonderful knowledge of history and art and was a joy to be with. I had a special treat in that my small group tour turned out to be just me and I got some extra time with Paola to exchange stories of mothering toddlers. She's a gem!

Great museum tour

Published on Jan, 2025

We had a great day touring with Paola at the museums. We learned so much more touring with her than we could imagine. Paola is very knowledgeable and passionate about art. Definitely recommend this tour!

Well Done! Thank YOU.

Guide Jo was very informative - almost too much so - she has a degree in Art History and brought it to life

Great experience

Published on Dec, 2024

Excellent tour. One of the best art museum experiences. Romy has both the passion and knowledge to bring Van Gogh to life. Great tour and museum.

Great guide, great tour

Ewald was a fantastic guide. He helped provide a lot of historical insight to the art we were seeing. My mom was also feeling sick and he was super helpful and attentive to making sure we were okay.
