What to expect
Your guide meets you near the entrance with your tickets sorted. You'll walk straight past the main crowds into the galleries. The pace is yours—linger on paintings that grab you, skip the ones that don't. Your guide reads the room, pivoting between a rapid highlights tour and deeper dives into composition, provenance, or the artist's life. Expect genuine conversation rather than scripted monologues. Two hours gives you breathing room to absorb rather than sprint through.
