Description

Your expert kid-friendly guide will make sure that all the family has lots of fun while learning all about the fabulous exhibits on display. Meet your guide at the main entrance to the museum, and begin a fascinating journey into the wonderful world of the Metropolitan. You will see up close some of the museum's most beautiful works of art, none more so than in the Roman and Greek collection. Dating back to the foundation of the museum, the exhibits here are mainly from ancient Greece and the Roman Empire, but there are also pieces representing the wide range of cultures and styles that were present in these geographical areas. The Amathus sarcophagus and the Etruscan Monteleone chariot are two of the collection's many highlights, while the Greek and Roman galleries can also boast a variety of classical wall paintings and reliefs from a number of different periods. Your guide will also make sure you see the Arms and Armors Hall, featuring one of the most recognisable and distinctive exhibits in the whole museum, a parade of armored figures on horseback. Other important sections include the American Art collection, ranging from the 18th to the early 20th century, and the Modern Art collection, featuring works of art created by the likes of Pablo Picasso, Jasper John and Jackson Pollock. Thanks to the skill and know-how of your highly qualified, kid-friendly guide, your tour will be enlivened by specially designed games and treasure hunts, and can be customised to cater for your family's specific requirements. So, don't miss this fantastic opportunity to see the best of the New York Metropolitan Museum.
