What to expect
Your guide will meet you at the museum entrance and lead the group through key galleries at a measured pace. Rather than straight commentary, the tour uses the activity booklets as anchors—children note details, spot patterns, or answer prompts about what they see. Adults get proper art historical context whilst kids stay actively involved. Expect roughly 90 minutes inside galleries and 30 minutes for introduction and wrap-up. The route avoids overcrowded galleries where possible, though weekend visits may still feel busy.
Good to know
Bring water and wear comfortable shoes; the museum is large and involves considerable standing. Activity booklets work best for ages 5+. Entry tickets included, but plan for café breaks separately—food isn't covered. Moderate fitness required due to stairs between gallery levels.
