Very good communication before the meet-up. Our guide Javier, was very welcoming, and clearly knew his stuff ! He was very knowledgeable about the museum, its history and the various sculptures and artists. His enthusiasm was quite infectious and he helped us experience the museum in a much better way than if we’d visited it on our own.

We very much enjoyed the tour. Our guide Javier was very friendly and explained many details inside and outside the building to us. It was definitely worth booking the tour. They were also very flexible and supportive when we had to move the date for a private matter. Recommended tour and plenty of time with the guide!

We are very happy with our guide Javier. In addition to being super nice, he has extensive knowledge that he knows how to transmit in an entertaining way. With Javier one manages to fall in love with works of art and above all to understand them. I recommend this tour and of course the guide. Thank you Javier for everything and more. You are an excellent professional. My husband and I are very grateful to you for that special time that we will never forget; we feel as if we have lived a magical tale.
