Brenda gave us a wonderfully educative tour of the Natural History Museum and Air Space musuem. She was very knowledgeable, engaging, and fun! Our children 11 and 6 thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommend Brenda!!
Maureen was so knowledgeable and helpful. She answered our questions and was very pleasant to be around. I would request her again.
Brenda was super knowledgeable, entertaining and driven to focus the tour based on our preferences. I suggest you let her lead because she knows where the magic lies. We had our 11 year old granddaughter with us and she engaged with her as much as us. I highly recommend Brenda.
Very informative and entertaining tour guide. He is clearly very educated and it seems his background of both history and biology is perfect for this exhibit.
We visited the Natural History Museum, the Air and Space Museum, and the National Gallery with our 5-year-old son. Rebecca F guided us for three days, and she was incredibly professional at every museum. She was patient and understanding even when our child was distracted, and she kindly engaged with him at his level and interests. We were so glad to have had Rebecca as our guide. Please pass along our sincere thanks once again.🥰
Our family had an amazing time touring the Natural History Museum with Leigh. She was super knowledgeable and, just as importantly, kept our kids engaged throughout the entire tour (a very difficult task with 4 kids under 11). All of our kids said afterward that they loved the tour and asked if we could do another Tour with Leigh the next day!
