Washington National Gallery of Arts Masterpieces Guided Tour

2 hours to 2 hours 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

The "Anti-Boredom" Guarantee: Skip the dry lectures. I focus on the scandals, secrets, and human stories that the museum labels leave out.

Zero Museum Fatigue: Don’t waste hours getting lost. I provide "Art GPS," taking you directly to the top 1% of the collection in a high-energy, 2.5-hour sprint.

A Complete Journey: Most tours stop at the classics. We bridge the gap, traveling from the 14th-century Renaissance to 21st-century modernism via the famous "Multiverse" light tunnel.

Provenance & Politics: Learn the "D.C. side" of the story—how these global treasures were acquired and why they call Washington home.
