The Metropolitan Museum of Art
Its roughly 2 million works of art and artifacts cover everything from Ancient Egypt to modern art. From the Great Hall, you’ll visit the museum’s most important galleries. Pass through the Medieval Europe Gallery on your way to the Studiolo from the Ducal Palace. Explore armory form the Middle Ages, including pieces worn by Henry VIII. The American wing hosts the staircase from the Chicago Stock Exchange as well as the famed portrait of Washington crossing the Delaware. A host of European painters including Vermeer, Picasso, and Van Gogh await you as you learn about their troubled yet exciting lives. All the while, your guide will explain how this iconic American museum differs from its older European counterparts, especially since it began before the United States was even 100 years old! Highlights generally include (if artwork is not on loan or being restored): Henry VIII armor, Tiffany Autumn landscape, Chicago Stock Exchange Stairs, Madame X, Pop culture then and now, Hudson River School, Washington Crossing the Delaware, Jan Vermeer, Madonna with Child, Picasso, Seurat, Van Gogh, and more!

Really enjoyed our tour with Mark. His knowledge of the art was outstanding and he entertained us with unusual facts. He read the room very quickly and went off piste with us a few times which we really appreciated as he very quickly saw where our interest went. I thoroughly recommend this company for their connection with us and for keeping us posted with times etc. lovely to meet you mark, good luck. Knott family

Mark was a wonderful tour guide. His passion and enthusiasm for art was a joy. He read the room very quickly and altered the plan if he saw we were interested in many other things. It was a pleasure and we thoroughly enjoyed his wisdom and explanations. He is very well read on his favorite subject......ART. I would recommend this tour

Mark was a wonderful guide! He was very knowledgeable about the history and architecture of the museum, and he offered interesting artist’s insights to the works. He did a great job of understanding what I thought was interesting and showing me pieces I wouldn’t have normally examined on my own. I’d highly recommend this tour.
