“As a historian, I can put most of the things I see in a museum into a bigger perspective. Still, I enjoyed the insights, Jens, a classical archeologist, could give me when he showed me around the Palmyra exhibition at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen. With a personal guide with a high level of knowledge I got to know details of an important archeological site, which I could not have acquired by myself without having spent a considerable amount of time pre-studying.”

“I usually do not enjoy visiting museums, as I find it a bit boring, but my experience changed when I booked Ashraf, a five-star GoMuseum guide, for a tour of the highlights at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Ashraf made the museum come alive, I could ask him a lot of questions and I left with a much better understanding of the ancient Egyptians. Ashraf is himself a student and his fee for the tour was within my budget.”

“In my job, I travel around the globe, and I always want to get as much out of my visits to new places as possible. With a GoMuseum guide I am always sure to see and learn so much more within the short period of time I have available for museum visits. Choosing and booking a personal guided tour is easy – and I can do it whenever it suits me. There are so many options for different tours, but for a first time visit to a museum, I usually go for the highlights tour.”

“Many apps will offer guided tours, but I like that GoMuseum specializes in museums, as guiding at a museum requires special knowledge. Also, GoMuseum gives a short and reliable introduction to the guide I am booking which gives me an idea of the competence level, passions and style of guiding. With two small kids it makes visiting museums so much more fun when we have an engaging guide. During our last visit to the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Elvira, our GoMuseum guide and a young student of Rembrandt taught my kids why all of Rembrandts models never wear colours. Do you know why?”

“When my boyfriend and I travel we like to be impulsive and plan our museum visits at the spur of the moment (or the weather!). The GoMuseum app gives us the flexibility to book a guided tour at the time that suits us – some times in the very last moment. We usually explore art museums, my favorite being the Tate Modern. I don’t have the patience to download separate apps for every museum we like to visit –with the GoMuseum app we have all the basic information about the different museums in one app.”
