Starting with the magnificent lobby of the breathtaking Met Opera building, this tour offers an exclusive backstage look at one of the world's premier performing arts center and a NYC icon, including visits to the scenery, costume, wig, and carpentry shops, rehearsal rooms, dressing rooms, and stage area*. A not to be missed experience!

IMPORTANT: This is an active tour of 75 - 90 minutes, mostly on your feet with very few places to sit down.  There are some steps - longest flight is 36 steps - all with a handrail.  After that there are three sets of steps of roughly 6 to 8 steps each, again with a handrail. 

*Please note that as this is a working opera house, not all areas may be available on every tour.
