Having a knowledgeable guide made the experience at the Getty outstanding. The Guide had extensive and expert understanding of all of the art and artifacts and was able to communicate the historical significance of the eras represented. I felt like I had a university level instruction without the exam. It was the best money I spent on my visit to Los Angeles. I highly recommend taking a guided tour to the Getty and any museum where it is available.

A Glimpse of Another Time and Place
The Getty Villa is a multi layered, packed experience. On meeting, our guide Kara led us to a high point and provided an overview of what we were seeing, how we would proceed through the Villa, and of what the builders had in mind for the structure. We proceeded through time viewing the art that captured the history and how the people lived at that time. An orderly and engaging discussion that was easy to absorb and remember.

Wonderful Villa Tour
It wasn’t my first time at the Getty Villa , but it was certainly the best one in terms of immersion in Ancient Rome daily life. The real added value was Sasha, our art historian tour guide, with her knowledge and enthusiasm. She really conquered us. She was just back from a trip in Italy visiting the excavations at Pompeii and Herculaneum , therefore she was able to provide us the updates about the recent discoveries. We already had Sasha as tour guide last year at the Getty Museum and we were very lucky to have her for this tour too. What we really appreciated it was her ability to entertain us for more than two hours , transporting us all the time into the daily life of the Ancient Rome “ gentes”. We really wanted to know more and more about Paul Getty and the beautiful place he created. I highly recommend to visit the Getty Villa having a tour with Sasha.

Getty Tour
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the Getty Villa with accomplished art historian Sasha. Sasha is a wonderful guide with fascinating personal background. She made the Getty come to life for us with highly informative and entertaining tour. The depth of her knowledge and enthusiasm for Getty was the highlight of our trip to LA. I highly recommend Sasha if you are fortunate enough to have her as a tour guide. you will not be disappointed!

Sasha was our guide and...
Sasha was our guide and she proved to be very informative and at times, even funny. She gave us background information before we even started the tour that enhanced our understanding and appreciation of the exhibits

White glove service for Getty Villa visit!
We were delighted with our tour! Ellen at Quick Culture made sure all our arrangements were in order prior to the visit, especially ensuring we had received our tickets. They were excellent in communication prior to our visit. Our Tour Guide, Yana Polshina, was so knowledgeable and explained the art in the Getty Villa through wonderful stories and historical context. Even the non-art lovers in our group enjoyed it. Having Yana take us through Getty Villa took the experience to the next level. Totally worth it!

Transported to Ancient Herculaneum!
Kara was extremely knowable about history and art. She kept us entertained AND learning the entire time! We could have talked to her all day, the 90 minute tour went by in a flash. Definitely worth the investment to get a deeper understanding the structure and antiquities. If you have folks in your life who are obsessed with ancient Rome, they will love this place!

Excellent experience at the Getty Villa.
Sasha was outstanding. She offered unique and interesting information that would not have been provided with a self-guided tour. I would highly recommend this tour.
