Anna was exceptional, and very accommodating with the group. Anna’s love for the history and the art in museum shone through and she was so knowledgeable, and did a wonderful job. l only gave a good score not because of Anna the tour guide but because of a group who did not appreciate her concern and tolerance, so l feel l did not get the value of Anna's knowledge, and it meant that we also ended late. There was one person in a wheelchair and Anna spent a lot of time helping them,l don't mean to sound unconcerning - but l felt annoyed with them only because they relied on Anna to support them way too much. Anna if your reading this - you were great!
