About Museum Hack

Museum Hack is a non-traditional private tour company that encourages visitors to look at museums in new ways.

Our un-highlights tours put an alternative spin on the museum, featuring other sides to the highlights we love, as well as some of the strangest, wildest, sexiest stories hidden throughout the museum. Each Museum Hack tour is customized based on the audience. Because we have small groups, the guides can modify the agenda based on your experience. We promise you will have an active, fun, engaging session. 110% satisfaction guaranteed.

We are experts in leading business practices: from team building to storytelling to marketing to millennials -- and we consult for the world’s leading organizations, including Fortune 500s and top museums.

When it comes to our team members, our primary mission is that each person can progress further and faster in their career while working here than they could anywhere else.

We invest in skill building and side projects and we provide a stipend for developing relationships with clients and colleagues.

Museum Hack also expects a lot from you. From the moment you join our company, you will be thrust into positions of responsibility, and you will be expected to get better every day. But you won’t have to go it alone: you’ll be surrounded and supported by some of the best and brightest people you’ve ever worked with.
