This was our first experience with Viator and we were very pleased. We visited the Met last year but found it overwhelming. Katie guided us to the highlights, was very knowledgeable and answered our many questions.
This was the extended tour. For non-New Yorkers who walk everywhere this is about too much. We were whupped.
Enjoyed the tour guide, he was both knowledgable and quite funny. It added SO MUCH to hear the little extras he went through at practically every stop. We would have missed a lot even if we had followed the exact route on our own. Several times he went off the path to show me a painting that I asked to see.
The Met is impossible to do in a day or even a week, but in three hours we really got a great feel for it. Most important, we found several areas that we returned, even though exhausted, to after the tour, to examine works of art in even greater detail.
I would strongly recommend this tour Though the lines were not long when we got there, at another museum, the Skip the Line access was a true life saver.
A fabulous and unmissable museum. Well organised and beautifully set out.
