Griffins, Goblets, and Gold: A Magical Arts Adventure in the Metropolitan Museum of Art
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Evie and the incredible, fun, informative experience we had at the Met. We took our child (then ~10 years old) to the Met on our last trip to NYC, and we learned from that experience that taking our child through a museum unguided was asking for lots of complaining and misery. The experience was radically different this time with Evie. She was so engaging in the way she connected the art to stories that kids know (mostly Harry Potter, but other fantasy series as well and peppering in interactive activities throughout the tour. All of us (adults and kids) learned a great deal about fantasy and myth as well as general recommendations for books, movies, TV, and NYC places to visit. We would absolutely book another tour with Fable & Lark again! Highly, highly recommend. -

American Museum of Natural History: Un-Highlights Tour
We have been to the Museum of Natural History many time over the years, but really enjoyed hearing the inside scoop about some of the most popular attractions. Lindsay, our vivacious guide, made it lively and fun!! Who knew where that huge meteorite was found and how it made it to that hallowed building in NYC in the mid 19th venture? And the hilarious prank played on the poor guy responsible for adhering the enormous blue whale to the ceiling in the oceanography hall? You don’t forget these stories. -

Metropolitan Museum of Art: Badass Bitches Tour
Ladies - run, do not walk - to sign up for this tour. So affirming to our gender. Our tour guide Kylie was hilarious in the stories she built around the brave women who unapologetically created art or influenced some of the masters. What a great way to view the Met's collection. You will never see it the same way after this. Kylie was incredibly charismatic in the tales she wove of behind the scenes and little-known facts about these women. We played fun interactive games. My daughter and I can't wait to do another tour. -
