The Metropolitan Museum of Art
New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art attracts nearly as many visitors as other leading galleries like the Louvre or the British Museum. Its roughly 2 million works of art and artifacts cover everything from ancient Egypt to modern art. From the Great Hall, you’ll see 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.

Greg was a fantastic guide and very knowledgeable and interesting. A great way for my 12 year old to see the MET and stay interested and I enjoyed it as well.

Robin was our guide and she was simply amazing! Having such a knowledgeable guide who could give us the history of the artifacts, paintings, etc, as well as guide us very efficiently through different parts of the Met was absolutely the best experience I have ever had with my children (5, 7, and 9 year old) at a museum. She was also very engaging asking the children questions and making them think about history and art. We are looking forward to seeing Robin again on our next trip to NYC.
