Our guide Miriam was excellent. She shared an extraordinary depth and breadth of knowledge about the art and its related history that added valuable context. She energetically guided us through the holiday crowds, always weaving a coherent narrative linking artwork to artwork. We could not have been more pleased. We highly recommend her.
