Our tour guide was Kevin and he was fantastic ! Had so much knowledge to share with us about The Mets incredible collection of art and history behind all the key pieces that he reviewed. Had a nice personality and kept us captivated. It was our first time at The Met. When we return, we will again use the tour guides.
Our tour guide Jett was great! A good choice of things to focus on. It was enjoyable.
