This rating is a review of the tour, not the building, since thats how most people will access the site. i've been on 2 tours here now, since I love the building and wanted to come back and visit again with a friend. Here's the short version of the review: if you're going to give me an expensive tour, give me an expert; and if you've got lots of poor students on site, help them to make money by allowing them to give tours and sell their work in the gift shop. The foundation sees the tour guides here as baby-sitters more than anything else. However, they charge nearly the fee for the tour that you would expect for an expert. Unfortunately, the tour guides are not experts. They are typically nice volunteers from nearby. I'm not sure why the Foundation can't have the students help out or run the tours, at least once or twice a day. They do this at the Maison de Verre, for example, and they charge about the same price, but the guides are students doing PhD's in some aspect of the house. So they can speak with authority. It seems like a high-level management oversight to not take advantage of the students knowledge and skills here. For example, why can't I pay a student to take me around the house? Futhermore, nothing in the gift shop is made by students. The students are allowed to occasionally set up a little table where they can sell prints. Why can't the foundation sell their work for them in the museum shop?
