So many artists and different works. Something for everyone. And a nice cafe and bar to relax for a while in. Well laid out.
We were able to see the arts of the old and new artists. Some installations were fun and interactive. I enjoyed browsing the gift shop slso. Ticketing with headout was quick and efficient.
The Museum Of Maoder Art was a wonderful experience for me and my 8 year twin boys. It was way bigger than I expected it to be and there was so much to see! Saw some really beautiful art as well as some interactive art instillations that the kids really loved. The Museum Store also had some amazing gems and we made a few purchases. I will definitely be coming back, it was a fun interactive learning experience for all of us.
It was great to skip the line to purchase tickets. The complementary coat check is a great perk I think joyed the cubism exhibit.
The enormous space of the museum and all the different rooms

I like it, such of beautiful art style on it.
I enjoyed the various artworks displayed around the museum, although my absolute favourite was the retro-design and pop culture section located at the northern part of the 3rd floor. It featured a walkman, first Mac PC, and a first moka Express along with various facts about these pop culture icons
The experience was wonderful. From the moment we ordered the ticket through the very user-friendly hall, the possibility of bringing wine into the hall was wonderful. The audience cooperated, the perfect direction, the talented cast, we enjoyed every moment. Thank you.
With the pre-booked ticket you still have to wait in the same line with everybody else before you get into the museum. But it goes ahead pretty fast. In the MoMa most people seem to go for the most famous paintings, while it's more acceptable in the other rooms. It's crowded anyway. However, it's a great museum and absolutely worth a visit.
I enjoy the exhibits and arts. Amazing and wonderful. This is my very first arts visit. It could have been better had I have a little background about these famous people and their works. It's a great place to visit
I always enjoy MOMA, especially the large collection of Impressists. This time in addition to my usual favorites I really enjoyed the Turning Point Exhibition. It was fascinating to read about the thoughts and intentions behind these innovative designs. The exhibit was also displayed in a very enticing manner with each exhibit allocated its own mini stage.
Seeing the works of Monet, Picasso and Van Gough, I was speechless. These were priceless jewels and no words I can utter to further explain the beauty that comes from each canvass.
The museum is phenomenal that goes without saying I can walk around there for hours. But I am taken aback about how loud it is how everybody seems to be comfortable to have full conversations. When I'm at the Met or the Whitney, I can hear my heartbeat. I really had a hard time. Enjoying everything with how loud it was. I also think you should make some efforts to organize the crowd around starry night. I'm not gonna pretend to have the answer. But putting it in the corner seems like maybe not the way to go. I had a few interactions with the staff and they were polite, respectful and very helpful. Nothing but great things to say about them.
An exhibit Jack Whitten was stunning. We slso had a bite at the Cafe ehich was good. The tapestry "Cadence" was gorgeous!
The ticket process was easy, thanks to you. The Caspar David Friedrich exhibit was astounding and captivated me most of the day. Love The Met!
We were delighted at MoMa! Great place of art! The zoo needs a refres, we hoped to see more animals but it wasn't the case. In both experiences, the Headout tickets worked perfectly! Great!
The art collections. High quality,imaginär all these artists like Picasso,Matisse, Magritte etc plus all these fabolous American artists.
The ART, of course! Easy to get lost in the galleries, though.
Everything was wonderful, fifth floor is the best.
Zero tails and wonderful paintings Picasso,Van Gogh Cézanne fantastic

The visit to the museum. We haven't visit all ( no time enough :-) The rooms we visited are very interesting and we will come back to visit the others. We appreciated the reception staff and I want to thank them for their kindness
Our experience was awesome! Alex our guide was an excellent communicator right from the start. He was so knowledgeable and very passionate about the art! You could tell he really loves art and enjoys his job. He kept us moving along which I loved but also gave us a nmoment to ask questions. I definitely would recommend this tour and tour company!

I booked a ticket to MET. For some reason I was forced to cancel my booking. I did it in a time frame specified on the ticket. However, the request for cancellation was not submitted. I tried to contact your support through your Chat, but it didn't work (I pressed the button "Chat", but nothing happened). I wrote an email about my request cannot be submitted. It's very helpless "help"! I'm very dissatisfied!
We would like to have AN italian guide, not all family speak english, otherwise we would have the possibility to know it before
Good afternoon, regarding my reservation, number: 23267525, which was to be a visit to the Metropolitan Museum, I had a problem. I was unable to pick up my tickets at the museum, and they could not find my reservation or the tour staff who were supposed to be there. I had to buy two last-minute tickets at the museum ticket office, as that was the schedule for my day trip to New York. I would like to request a refund of the amount I paid for the tickets. Best regards
I liked everything, but I fell in love with the Impressionists and Tiffany glass! Everything was outstanding!

We liked being able to point out landmarks to our young granddaughters. I personally couldn't help thinking about the horror that preceded this "Phoenix" .
