I had been at three of the Chelsea gallery tours twice with Maya and once with Tal. Their tours are one of my favorite and a must when ever I am in NY. All three times they had taken us to incredible galleries and hidden gems. Exhibitions in NY are always changing, and there is always too much to choose from, which can be a bit overwhelming. The Chelsea gallery tours helps narrow the interesting things down and the places we went to seem to have been chosen very carefully since each time has been incredibly insightful, and with the explanations it just makes the experience all the more worthwhile. they are always up to date with the information and latest exhibitions. Highly recommended!! 5 stars!
