Highly recommend!

Published on Dec, 2024

This is a fantastic way to see one of the world’s great museums. Dan was our guide and he took us to the places we wanted to see. He was highly knowledgeable and engaging.

Awesome Dan!!

Published on Dec, 2024

Dan was our guide. He was amazing! Super knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and a pleasure during our tour. We highly recommend using a guide for The Met.

100% Take This Tour with Kevin!

Published on Dec, 2024

9 family and friends toured with Kevin through the Met and it was exceptional! One couple has been to the Met many many times and have had private tour guides at museums around the world. They both claimed Kevin’s tour was the best they’d EVER had! He kept it fast-paced enough for the young adults and gave us insight into not only what’s in the Met, but also how the Met came to be and how it is ever evolving. Can’t wait to go back and hire him for his other NYC tours!

A Merry Time at The Met!

Published on Nov, 2024

Jared did an excellent job guiding us through The Met. He asked about the type of art and historical periods we wanted to see specifically and made sure we hit the highlights throughout our tour. His knowledge of the art along with the museum itself was impressive. He was flexible and entertaining.

Welcome to the Met

Published on Nov, 2024

My adult daughter and I took this tour. We had both been to the Museum before but never felt comfortable on our own. This tour helped us understand the layout of the museum, its history, and the huge variety of its holdings. Our guide, Kevin, had lots of interesting tidbits to share, and everything he showed us was wonderful to see and enjoy. He was friendly, on time, helpful with coats and other items, and patient with my slow walking. We highly recommend this tour company.
