Description of service

My family and I took a tour of an art museum. It was $25.00 for the tour and $5.00 for the admission per person. The tour guide showed use many different paintings, sculptures, and items worn by well known people from the 1800s-1900s. She took us from room to room explaining when the most important paintings and sculptures were made and how they affect our learning process and lives today. She also handed out pamphlets to the customers explaining what "Special" art pieces they have as well as any originals.


Review of Service

The quality of the service was incredibly successful. The experience was very educational and my family and I learned a lot of new things. I think actually taking a tour and seeing the items in person teaches you a lot more then if you was to sit down with a textbook and try and read what it’s about. This is a good opportunity for children to learn new and exciting things. Maybe even get them to switch from the video games. I definitely recommend taking a tour, especially at a museum.


Tips

I recommend that you get there early to avoid big crowds. The less people that are in the group, the better learning experience you get.
