“As set up, not for arthritis sufferers. We did not meet our guide at the museum itself, but about 3 or 4 blocks away. We then took a roundabout route from our meeting point that included walking on cobblestones, so by the time we got to the museum one of us (the husband) had gone from a tender ankle due to a mishap in the airport, to a sore ankle where every step was painful. Consequently the husband had to rest a lot in the museum’s atrium while his wife did the actual touring. The guide seemed to have trouble adjusting to us. We are not typical tourists in that…”
Private half-day trip from Copenhagen to the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art with hotel pickup, an English guide, Sound views, and free time.
“Whitney was an exceptional guide and really brought this singular museum to life. We took a beautiful drive from Copenhagen to get there, along the shore , seeing swans and cormorants and then urban forest. The museum has some wonderful paintings by Asger Jorn and a breathtaking show by a Swiss Artist Franz Gertsch. The view from one room, overlooking a man-made lake, looks just like a Monet painting. There is a magnificent outdoor sculpture garden with terrific views of the water. Whitney told us something memorable about each piece we saw.”
