Amazing afternoon at the Met - Kevin was an excellent and highly knowledgeable guide who took us through the highlights of this amazing museum. Not only did he show us the major exhibits but he took us to let known areas and gave us great background. This is a very worthwhile your for anyone visiting NYC, and even for locals.

Dan’s the man - Dan was awesome! We saw and learned a lot from him. He navigated us through large crowds and kept us moving, but made sure we were able to see a good mix and what we asked to see.

A great tour - It was the best! Kevin was so knowledgable and engaging. We highly enjoyed the fact that it was a seamless experience from start to finish, and it was just the right amount of time. We will definitely be using Kevin again when we return. Worth every penny!

Wonderful experience - Kevin did such a great job - loved the variety, the amount of time allotted was perfect, and I loved finding out about the Mets’ rooftop terrace. Kevin’s knowledge was encyclopedic, and he is so engaging. Will be using him as a guide again!

Gem of a tour - My mother and I had a wonderful time with Kevin as he guided us through some of the lesser known facts and features of the Met. While my mom has been to the Met numerous times over the years, she learned a great deal of new information on this tour. Kevin was funny, engaging and extremely knowledgeable about the Met and NYC history in general.
