This 2.5 hour exclusive guided museum tour will show you the world’s most iconic artists inside two extraordinary buildings. The National Gallery of Art in Washington DC is a world-class museum housing an incredible timeline of Western Art from the old masters of the Renaissance to the quintessential personalities of the 20th Century. Raphael, Rembrandt, Renoir, Picasso, and Rothko are just a handful of artist on view (as well as Vigee le Brun, Cassatt, and O’Keeffe).
Take excursion through the changes of history as told by magnificent works of art - money, power, war, hope, and triumph. From the intimacy of a da Vinci portrait to sweep of a Monet to the bold strokes of a Kandinsky, you will be dazzled by the vast holdings and the stories that accompany them. You’ll delight over familiar names and hidden gems while our passionate guides navigate you through notable highlights of technique and artwork from over the past seven centuries.

Loved our tour. Our guide, Leigh, made it all the better. I felt like we saw the best that museum had to offer, with really interesting information of each piece. It’s wonderful to understand what and why the piece is noteworthy.

Annemarie was so effective at communicating by text even before the tour. We knew exactly where to meet and what to expect. She was a good communicator, spoke clearly, and was always aware of our pace. Thank you for an excellent tour.

We have been many times. It is a very interesting museum.
So is the National Museum of History, less renowned but very valuable.
