Met Express: Highlights of the Metropolitan Museum of Art

You can spend days wandering the Metropolitan Museum of Art, but if you only have two hours, the best way to see it is with an expert guide. It took us months of work and refinement to create an itinerary that showed you everything you really can't miss in just two hours. But when we finally did it, we knew we had something special.

This isn't just a stroll through an art musuem, it's a whirlwind adventure through the history of global art. Along the way you'll see selected works from Van Gogh, Monet’s Water Lillies, mummies from Egypt, ancient sculptures from Rome and Greece, and even Bisj Poles from Papua New Guinea.

Of course, we also have to take you inside the Temple of Dendur, an Egyptian Temple that was transplanted into the museum, whole, from Egypt. Whether you're a seasoned art buff or a young child, this ancient structure will drop your jaw.

As you move through the museum, your guide will give you and your small group of no more than 15 people the context and background to help you enjoy and appreciate each masterpiece you encounter. Whether it's the story of exactly how the museum managed to tansport an entire stone temple from Egypt, or what makes the Water Lillies such important works, you'll come away from this tour with a deeper understanding and appreciation for all types of art.
