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!

Mark was our tour guide at the Met. I highly recommend requesting him by name. He is an artist and a former art teacher, and on top of that he’s funny and friendly. My husband and I learned a lot and had a great time.

Awesome tour! Mark was wonderful and incredibly knowledgeable. We would not have been able to cover 1/2 of the art we did without him. I HIGHLY recommend Mark and Viator for your NEW YORK tours.

My husband and I really enjoyed ourselves! Mark gave us a real insider experience while still showing us the "must see" pieces. We highly recommend the tour-our hearts felt full from taking it all in.
