| Me, my parents, and my best friend recently participated in Accomplice: New York. It was a blast. The phone call I received the day before got me very excited for the event. All the actors and actresses played their parts very well. We also got to see parts of Manhattan normally not seen by tourists. This is a fun activity for anyone, you just have to jump in and play along. |

| What a creative and intriguing way to see parts of the city. It was such fun to interact with the actors along the way. Wear good walking shoes and expect the unexpected. Our group ranged in ages from 18 to 55, were from Texas, Ohio, and North Carolina and everyone in the group had a ball. This experience helped to make this my best trip to New York, yet. |

| My friend and I located "The Accomplice" online and were intrigued enough by the description to take a leap of faith and book the tickets. I am soooo glad we did - this became the highlight of our trip! The event took us in to areas of New York we wouldn't have thought to enter and provided great entertainment with the host of characters you encounter. Truly a fabulous way to experience New York - I highly recommend you add this to your trip (be sure to wear comfy shoes)!! |

| My friends and I participated in the activity on a recommendation from someone who had participated 3-years prior... He did not give us any specifics but the website wet our appetites just enough to find it alluring. There were 10 people in our group including myself and 2 friends and we were thoroughly entertained. Not only was the experience engaging, but sharing the experience with ourselves and the other participants (strangers) made it more fun; because we got to meet new people from other parts... even Luxenburg. As commented before, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would recommend anyone to try it at least once, you won't be disappointed :) |

| This was truly amazing! Hard to describe, but a definite must do while in NYC. You will see parts of the city that you may not have seen while touring. Be prepared to walk A LOT! If I go back to NY I will do the Greenwich Village accomplice. |

| My husband and I found the Accomplice NYC online and thought it would be a great idea to take our visiting teenage niece and nephew for a different kind of city tour...the Accomplice NYC turned out to be a hit for the adults and teens alike. Clues were interesting and exciting (difficulty level was appropriate for teens), and the group of excellent actors were a definite highlight. We also lucked out that it was a good-weather day, considering all the outdoor walking! Although it felt very free-form, the activity wrapped up in good time.This was not your usual city tour, and although there is a lot of walking through various parts of the city, the emphasis is not really on the attractions.
Thanks to the creators for giving us some unforgettable memories! |

| My husband and I had just the weekend in NYC and this was the perfect way to spend an afternoon. The experience was thoroughly enjoyable and I will encourage everyone I know who will be visiting to "do" Accomplice. |

| I am so not the right audience for Accomplice: New York because I really don't enjoy interacting with people who are "in character" as characters other than themselves. Unfortunately, that's what Accomplice: New York turned out to be, which is something that I'd have known if I'd bothered to read the material on the web site -- or even the review that my daughter brought to my attention.
Because I'm not really the right sort of audience member for this sort of theatre-on-the-street, I felt pretty uncomfortable when having to interact with the various fictional characters. However, the actors' performances seemed campy, engaging and fun; the performers gave off vibes that made them seem nice -- even when they were supposed to be tough characters -- and everyone seemed to want to engage the audience members / tourists. In fact, everyone else on my tour seemed to be having a great time, including my daughter. And parts of the tour did seem surprising and original.
I had been interested in Accomplice: New York because of its promise to us sights that we as tourists might not ordinarily see. On that count, the tour succeeded pretty well, although the actual number of identifiable "spots" were few and (this is a strength) obscure. I will tell you that, when my daughter and I found ourselves in unfamiliar territory two days later, we were able to find our ways back to familiar neighborhoods and the subway by retracing the path from the tour -- a real boon that made the experience worth the money in my book. |
