Fast moving museum tour - Alex was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable tour guide. He clearly loves this museum. He was willing to take us to see any items of special interest to our group, which was just two of us. One word of warning, Alex moves fast, so if you have difficulty walking or prefer a slower pace, This may not be the tour for you. But if you want to experience as much of the museum as possible, then I highly recommend it.

I definitely recommend getting a guide if it is your first time visiting the museum because it can be overwhelming. Alex's enthusiasm and love of the museum was awesome!

A good tour if you want an overview of the museum. - Our tour guide, Alex was very knowledgeable about the museum and the art pieces on display. He was very energetic and we enjoyed his tour. The museum is huge so it would be impossible to see everything in one visit. The 2 hour tour gave us an overview of the museum but we didn't get to spend much time in any one area. You are able to stay at the museum beyond the tour though so you do have chance to revisit your favourite areas or explore further. The roof garden is stunning and worth a visit to see the incredible New York skyline. The queues to get into the museum were quite long but they try to move you through security as quickly as possible. The museum has a number of cafes but we didn't try them out.
