Description

We're like a museum tour, but fun. We tell the stories you won't find on the wall labels. What You Get Access to a mobile app that guides you through the museum and makes the most of your visit. You'll have access to all of the following tours: Highlights (1 hr): TEN essentials Grand Tour (2 hrs): Icons + hidden gems Controversial (1 hr): Looted? Borrowed? Rescued? The objects everyone argues about. Solved and Unsolved Mysteries (1 hr): History’s greatest puzzles Who Is This For? For the 99% of us who aren't art historians. We focus on the juicy stories rather than the brushstrokes and colour palettes. Why Us? Other apps are generic, copy-pasted from Wikipedia. Our tours are written by actual humans who know how to tell a good story. Think of us as visiting a museum with your most knowledgeable friend, or a sold-out-for-months tour guide, minus the hefty price tag. IMPORTANT: ⚠️ Digital tour only. Entry not included.

Dont waste your money

When I arrived at the Museum reading room the staff person told me this tour is not a tour that the Museum supports or any other external digital platform. I had downloaded the app with the tour on as I had paid for this tour, I tried to follow it. It wasn't easy to follow, find rooms and artifacts. I gave up on the tour and looked around on my own with out the commentary.
