2-hour tour: For the convenience of all guests, it is best to have 1 licensed guide per maximum of 25 guests. If there are 26-50 people in your group, we will provide the service of 2 licensed guides so that all guests can get the best experience, ask questions and hear the guide well.
4-hour tour: Due to the museum's rules, 1 licensed guide can show a group of 1-6 people, so the price of the tour will be higher if you need more than 1 guide. For groups of 7-12 people we will provide the service of 2 licensed guides.
