A tour de force at the MET with Charlie - Charlie gave us a wonderful and illuminating private tour in the Met. He was funny, focused and always kept us captivated. We highly recommend this tour and having Charlie as a guide. It was a highlight of our visit to nyc!

Adventures await! - Mark! After meeting us at the sphinx statue in the lobby, it was nothing but high energy and excitement! Mark totally tailored the experience to the three of us in his group. After finding out about each of our interests, he skillfully maneuvered us through the Met and we experienced the beauty, awe, and wonder the Met holds. Mark made the trip so special. It was so worth the extra cost for this kind of concierge service. He gave us tips to continue our adventures in the Met as well as farther afield in other Manhattan spots. What a lovely local. What an amazing museum. I highly recommend this tour especially if you are lucky enough to get Mark.

Museum tour of Metropolitan Art in 2024. - Cherie was great. She is so knowledgeable and pleasant. She always asked the group if they had any questions and was very patient with all of us. I would highly recommend this company (we have used on several prior trips to NYC) and Cherie!
