Daria was a phenomenal guide with a deep knowledge of the subject matter. Her presentation of facts was engaging and her experience really came through. She is a strong advocate of art and very passionate about sharing the stories behind the artists motivation. Flawless language skills in both French and English. I have no hesitation in recommending her for personal or corporate engagements.
Thank you Thomas, I am really glad you enjoyed your experience!
