Metropolitan Museum of Art
Walk up the hallowed steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, a New York icon since its founding in 1870. This world-renowned institution boasts a collection of more than 2 million objects, from Roman artifacts to 19th-century paintings.
Your guide leads you by models of Egyptian tombs to the Temple of Dendur, which dates to 15 BC. Cross over to Tudor-era England to check out King Henry VIII's suit of armor, and hear the legends that surround the Antioch Chalice—believed to be the Holy Grail. Meander through the Greek and Roman statuary, absorbing the sense of history as you admire ancient frescoes and the busts of emperors past. Hear about the scandal behind John Singer Sargent's Madame X and enjoy the highlights—and even a few hidden gems—of the Met, with a knowledgeable art expert guide to lead the way.
