Great tour - It is one of the best tours. Tour guide (Evan) is very engaging with intriguing selection of topics and vast knowledge. I love the Metropolitan Museum, and hope to learn more as it fascinates and inspires me. I recommend this tour to all visitors.

Evan Levy’s guided tours of the MET - Many thanks Evan for two wonderful private tours of the MET. Evan’s Ghost Stories tour was fascinating as was her very informative ‘The Art of Stories’ tour which took us on a wonderful journey through the MET to discover 2000 years of stories which ranged from the twelve labours of Hercules to the significance of Arthurian legend in J K Rowlings Harry Potter series. Evan brought these and so many other well known stories to life through the sculpture, art and objects on display in the labyrinth of galleries that make up this fabulous museum.
While the museum was busy, Evan expertly navigated the crowds allowing us to get very close to her selected works.
To further enhance our experience of the art relating to these tours, Evan offered us a curated list of recommended books to read and films to watch. In doing so, the memory of these tours will live on for many months to come. Thank you for the lists Evan. I have made a start. 😊
I would recommend anyone wishing to take a tour of the MET with a delightful, well informed guide to contact Evan whose fee represented very good value for money.

Knowledge and Understanding - Evan Levy has a wealth of Knowledge and experience dealing with the Metropolitan Museum. She was filled with fun facts and an excellent conversationalist. The array of knowledge she hosts could possibly be overwhelming, but she is able to bring it into containment within highlights realm. Started with the first piece ever obtained a rather beautiful and heavy sarcophagus. It ended within the armory. A joy to have such a well-versed guide in such a large plethora of installations.

Incredible by a very experienced lady - This is an incredible and fascinating experience with the most wonderful Evan who worked at the Met for fifteen years. She is so full of knowledge so you can also ask questions about the art and museum. We loved every second.

The story of the story, must see! - So glad we were able to book this tour! Evie was amazing. She led us through the museum, detailing the history of “the story”. She was very engaging and knowledgeable about the whole museum, but the “story” and displays she shared to convey it was a wonderful way to see the museum in that light.

A fantastic whistlestop literary tour of the Met and its many treasures! - The tour was brilliant. Evie was a charming and inspiring tour guide with a real passion for her subject and an encyclopaedic knowledge of the museum! Evie transported us from Ancient Greece through Persia, ancient Egypt, medieval Britain, and Imperial China (to name but a few!) all the while cleverly interweaving the theme of stories and narratives, and their fundamental role in our lives. Highly recommended!

The Met but with a Literary Twist - Evan took us on a lovely tour and Hero's Journey through the Met and incorporated some well known literature and story telling styles that made things fun, and approachable. My literary-minded daughter and her best friend had an amazing time and so did I! Thank you, Evan!!

A fascinating Met experience - Evan is a wealth of knowledge and such a compelling storyteller and tour guide. She brings more dimension and depth to the Met than one could find individually or on a standard tour. Very interesting and entertaining !

excellent tour - My group of friends took Evan's "Art of Stories" tour. This was a perfect tour for our group's love of books, art and stories. Evan is a wealth of information and knows how to weave a tale that intersects the story with the beautiful art in front of you. We had an amazing time and learned so much.
