Indisputably one of the best museums in the world, the Metropolitan houses over two million artworks covering 5,000 years of human history! The museum is as fantastic as it can be overwhelming. This curated tour will help you make the most of your time in the museum and see the collection highlights. Join me for a stroll through the Metropolitan, filled with tales from Greek mythology, stories behind the masterpieces, and glimpses into the turbulent life of the artists.

- Egyptian Art: The Temple Dendur - a gift from Egypt, Faiyum portraits from the 1st Century, Hatshepsut - the female pharaoh

- The American Wing: Spectacular glass paintings by Tiffany, a living room by Frank Lloyd Wright, and a gilded Diana weather vane

- Old Masters: Paintings by Rembrandt, Rubens, Vermeer, masters of the Dutch Golden Age and Italian Renaissance

- Impressionism and Post-Impressionism: Works by Monet, Degas, Seurat, Cezanne, Gauguin, Van Gogh and Picasso.

Like sightseeing with a good friend!

Iren was friendly, on-time, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, well-prepared, and just a joy to spend time with. By the end of our time with her we felt like we were seeing the city with a good friend. We had told her what we were interested in seeing, and she set it all up in a very logical order. We has such a good time with her.

John G.

Dear John and Elaine, thank you! It was a joy exploring the city with you, and - you took the words right out of my mouth - it did feel like spending time with friends. I'm very happy you had a good time in New York and hope you'll come back to visit again, there are just too many stories left to tell!

Discover New York that tourists don't usually get to see. This tour starts in one of the oldest bars in New York that used to be a Prohibition-era speakeasy. We'll stroll around the Gramercy/Flatiron neighborhoods and see the only private park in Manhattan, beautiful 19th-century mansions, and iconic New York skyscrapers.
