We enjoyed his 'curriculum' to the max and appreciate how he devised the un-tour stories and games so that we would playfully interact with the works he chose, and our attention never flagged. We learned gross, saucy, and gruesome details that are unforgettable." 2. "Kris was an excellent guide: smart, funny, and he made the 2 hrs full of fun facts! He’s a keeper! Thanks, Kris." 3. "This was, by far, the best museum tour I've ever been on! Our guide, Adrian, was incredibly knowledgeable and at the same time, incredibly hilarious! So great to get information about the art and artists with a sense of humor instead of a droll dialogue."
