Traveler reviews
What a great way to experience the Met!
We had an amazing experience! I would highly recommend to anyone visiting New York. The Met is incredible, but could be overwhelming. Charlie covered so many areas. He shared his knowledge not o Lt of the art, but also of the Met itself and the rich history that has made it the iconic museum it is. He was engaging and shared stories about that made it all very relatable. Both me and my 13 year old daughter loved it!
5 Star Experience
A true highlight of our family trip to NYC. The Met is a must see and we are so glad we got to spend it with our guide Mark V. Knowledgeable, Energetic, Kind and Curious. Thank you to our introduction to Henry Tanner and Winslow Homer with such passion. What more could you ask for! Terry, Monique, Zoë, and Callie. P.S. Don’t forget John Brown was a Jayhawker :)
Great way to see the Met for first time visitors
Our first time at the Met and I am glad we chose to go on a guided tour to get a good introduction to one of the world’s great art museums. One of the advantages of booking with this company is your tour size. Only had four people on our tour and I think the tour size limit is eight, so you aren’t going to be in a huge group trying to squeeze in to seeing the artwork. Price of tour includes the admission ticket. Our group’s guide was Charlie, who did a great job keeping us entertained and on our toes. Very knowledgeable about what we saw. We also got a great workout trying to keep up with his fast pace. LOL. Saw the museum highlights, which included the Temple of Dendur, Washington Crossing the Delaware, and the Impressionist rooms of the museum. The Met museum is huge and no one should expect a 2.5 hour tour to include everything. I would use this tour as a good introduction to the museum and then you can go back and see what interests you once the tour was done.
A fun afternoon at the Met
Mark V. was the perfect guide for us! He was energetic, informative, engaging and a lot of fun to spend a few hours with. He gave us an in depth, and most importantly relatable, exploration of The Met and we walked away having thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. We randomly ran in to our kids who were doing a self-guided tour and he always took a minute to give them some "hey, you may not have seen this" attention. You can tell that he is well respected by the staff at the museum which makes getting in and around easier (you bypass some lines!) We will return to the Met on our own and continue our exploration with the information he gave us in our back pockets.
Highly recommended MET experience!
Our guide Mark was amazing…so glad we booked this experience! The tour was perfect…highly engaging and effective coverage of the MET.
