Combi guided tours
Can't choose between the exhibition and the sound programme? Keen on sneaking in an exhibition visit before your movie? With our combi tours, you can have both: a short visit of the exhibition followed by that night's performance or movie. A tour guide takes you through the highlights of the exhibition and makes sure you are ready before the start of the show.
Don't forget your tickets for the shows or movies - the reservations below are for the guided tour only.

Slow down
