I went on the Chelsea art tour with Merrily. It was so fabulous I then went on her Architecture tour. Merrily has a wealth of experience and enthusiasm. I will definitely go on her art tour next time I visit NY!

Merrily was marvelous! 100% responsive to our requests re: what we wanted to see. Very friendly and flexible, and tuned into what was resonating with us and she was happy to move on when it wasn’t. She was obviously immersed in the art world, but never was there any sense of condescension. After just one tour we already think of her as our “go to” for NYC art.

We took a private tour with Merrily Kerr yesterday and can't sing her praises enough! The 2 hours flew by as she held our attention with her depth of knowledge, interesting history behind the buildings, use of her iPad to illustrate key points, all in a light-hearted manner. Merrily is a college professor of Art Appreciation. The tour does exactly that!
