Worth it-includes mudeum entry- skiped long line to buy pass - Our guide, Cherie was personable, accommodating, cared about each visitor's experience, and most importantly passionate and knowledgeable about the museum. She gave interesting insights to various highlights throughout the museum. This Met is too much to explore in a day so a guided tour is a nice way to see several highlights with great context about each targeted piece.

Great highlight tour - Michael was an awesome guide who helped us to quickly see highlights throughout the museum. We learned so much about the building as well as the significance of the many works of art and artists. This tour is a great introduction to the museum.

The Met - A very interesting and informative trip and tour of one of the most remarkable museums of the world, our guide, Kevin, an artist and history enthusiast did a wonderful job explaining in but a brief two hours of this activity.

Not worth it - The instructions asked us to arrive 15 minutes early and we did. And then we stood around for 15 minutes after the scheduled start time listening to the guide advertise to us all of the other tours they offer. The tour also did not provide any meaningful insights intk the exhibits that we could not read or see on our own.

Very disappointing - The tour guide was supposed to be in blue so you could easily spot her. She wasn’t. The tour was supposed to come with headsets so everyone could hear easily. It didn’t. She spent the first 20 mins of the tour in the main lobby, telling random jokes/ stories and not giving an overview of the museum. Everyone was eager to get going. The tour guide wasn’t able to answer questions, wandered around reading off the labels on the walls (which we could have done ourselves for free), seemed to have very little knowledge of the art, had to ask security guards for directions several times, etc. Everyone seemed pretty annoyed and we left early. She said she came an hour early to see a special exhibit. Perhaps that hour would have been better spent preparing for the tour and understanding which sections were open etc. She was nice but I would not work with this tour company again.
