Some of the more well-known museums have guides ready at the entrance since most tourists would not dream of going to a place like the Louvre without one. When you visit a smaller local place, it can feel like the process of hiring a guide is an added expense and that a visit can be done without an expert. What we end up doing is missing some of the most important aspects of the art. Just make sure that you call in advance to set one up. Even at the little local museums there is always someone available and often times the price is not unreasonable.
