Very enjoyable way to spend the morning. Merrily was engaging, knowledgeable, and approachable. She allowed us to see New York's art district like we likely wouldn't have on our own. She gave us an idea of what's going on in the neighbourhood, as well. Highly recommended.

Merrily is an excellent guide, she was calm and engaging and incredibly knowledgable. She chose great shows and made them even more interesting by adding background information about the artist and the works and engaging in conversation if we had questions. It was a delightful experience--I look forward to my next tour with Merrily!
