Abed, our guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic ! There were 6 in our group. Abed was delighted with our questions and became more enthusiastic. He gave the basics and much, much more. Our tour also included the great paintings that were missing due to being out on loan. Yes, it was an "awesome" experience.
