    This tour is an absolute MUST! Our guide (Mattia) was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and engaging—the kind of storyteller who makes every painting come alive. He shared fascinating insights that added depth and context, and his enthusiasm was contagious. Hands down the best tour we've done!

    Excellent and knowledgeable guide. Unfortunately, most of the group arrived rather late and the tour turned into whirlwind in order to finish before closing times. We took the golf cart garden tour a week before. That is the recommended schedule.

    Vlotte gids die met veel kennis van zaken de meest belangrijke kunstwerken tot in de details heeft besproken. Timing gerespecteerd. Een aanrader.
