We had a wonderful tour with Steve! He was so knowledgeable about the sights and all the history and was so pleasant and personable! This guided tour was so much better than one with the audible sound devices! Our driver was Eddie and he did a wonderful job getting us to all the many sites. Would highly recommend this tour. It also included a 24 hr hop on hop off tour that we were able to use the following day.

Used MuseMuse for my trip to London and did the National Gallery. I hadn't planned on visiting more than one museum, for my trip, but the app made the experience so fun that I ended up exploring Tate Britain as well. The content was really interesting and not generic, making it, in my opinion, the best museum guide app out there!

Our guide Chris Smith was an informative and funny guide. He brought the tour to life!! He was knowledgable, loves trivia and history. Great tour!!

The amount of information was spot on and there was a good variety of artworks covered. Would certainly recommend!

Great way to get tickets when the National Gallery Website was all booked out!
