We thoroughly enjoyed this unique tour of contemporary art galleries around Chelsea. Merrily was friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating - the perfect guide! She chose a terrific selection of galleries and artists. The tour was super enjoyable and relaxed. We had lots of interesting discussions and Merrily provided all the information we needed about the artists, galleries and architecture around us. Merrily’s guidance made the art and galleries so much more accessible than if we had visited alone. Looking forward to doing this tour again when I’m next in New York!

What a treat to have an inside look at the latest art in Chelsea! Merrily was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, which led to excellent discussions about the art she showed us. We can't wait to return - Merrily and New York Art Tours are now a permanent fixture on our "must do" list when in the city!

This was my third tour with Merrily in person. I have also enjoyed her virtual tours via Zoom. It is a wonderful way to view the best of the Chelsea galleries. Merrily provides context and background for the artists and exhibits, which adds so much to the experience. I can’t say enough good things about New York Art Tours!

Art museum docents (Getty and Carnegie), we had high expectations; Merrily exceeded them. We especially appreciated her artist selections and thoughtful narrative.
