| Our guide, Issac, was a knowledgable and entertaining chauffeur. Everywhere we went, we felt like celebrities because of the Red Convertible. I only wish that there was a Red Convertible Tour of Uptown Manhattan! |

| We thought this was a great worthwhile tour. During our time in NY we travelled on all modes of transportation - helicopter/subway/cab/boat. Because this was unique it drew attention from people on the street and was a great way to see the city. We were lucky enough to be collected from our hotel in midtown which is not the preferable collection point due to traffic however we believe that it is key to take a tour through the central area where you can then fully experience the whole NY scene.
Highly recommended. |

| When we were planning our trip, I think I was more excited about this tour than anything. Much to my delight, it was even better than I had imagined! We saw so many wonderful sites: Greenwich Village, Soho, Little Italy, Chinatown....even Brooklyn.....which was fabulous - who knew? We never could have scratched the surface of New York on our own. This tour allowed us to get a crash course on the city and it's history in only 2 hours. Isaac, our guide, was extremely knowledgable and clearly loves his city and knows so much about it. The only thing I wish is that I would have taken notes so I could remember everything he told us! He was great and alot of fun. I was also impressed and very grateful that they warned us well in advance that the forecast called for rain. They came up with a couple of back-up plans that worked with our schedule and kept in constant contact with us via email and through the hotel to ensure that we would not only be able to take our tour but have nice weather to boot. The car does attract alot of attention and it's wonderful to just tip your head back and take in all of the fantastic architecture. I would enthusiastically recommend this tour to anyone planning a trip to New York - it really turned out to be the best part of our entire trip. Don't be a geek riding on top of a big red bus - tour in style! oh, and have Isaac drop you off at Bleeker Street pizza for a slice - it's THE best pizza in New York! Thanks Isaac - we had a blast! |

| If you want a personal tour of the best places in New York City, Isaac will provide just that. You can actually interact with him and ask any and all questions that you want. Great guy. Very personable and accommodating. My sister and I sat in the back seat of the convertible and we put our mother in the front. We all had a blast and agreed that it was the best thing we did in the 4 days that we were there. We were able to mark off many sights on our "to do list" after being with Isaac for just 2 hours. Wow! What a beautiful day it turned out to be (9/17/06). If they ever extended the tour to 3 or 4 hours that would be great. I just can't say enough good things about it. People on the streets gawked at us because we all looked so good in the red convertible chevy. We were the envy of everyone we passed on the streets. If we ever go back to the "Big Apple" we will definitely make another date with Isaac. Believe me folks. This is the only way to go. I am very picky and somewhat spoiled. Maybe even a little hard to please. So if you want something special/different/private (one-on-one) and NO Crowds, sign up here. It is well worth the money for what you get in return.
So, from the girls here in TEXAS, we give you a big thumbs up!

| I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. On the day that our tour was booked for there was a threat of a thunder storm and we were called two days prior to tour to reschedule, this gave us plenty time to make other arrangements for that day. When the tour did take place we had a fantastic time. The car is great and Isaac was very well informed and very pleasant. The tour lasts for approximately two hours but the time just flew by and before we knew it we were back at the start. Isaac stopped at various points and we were able to take photographs. So please do not hesitate - make a booking. We will certainly go back to New York and book another tour. |

| A very informative, enjoyable tour. Our tour guide was very friendly and being a local, knew so much. We were able to stop at certain spots which meant we were able to get some great shots. It was a fantastic way to see the sights really easily, rather than a conventional car! |

| You are shown NYC in a wonderful convertable driven by a real New Yorker who tells you everything about New York.
He shows not only the city but he's also a very open and nice person what gives the tour a personal touch. We loved it. |

| This tour was the highlight of our stay in New York. They were a great company to communicate with while in New York and their service was outstanding. They were flexible and professional. The car was so much fun. In fact we became the tourist attraction for New Yorkers - nothing subtle about this big red convertible! People would wave and check out the car as we drove around. The tour itself was a great introduction to the different areas of New York. We received lots of information that was personal and interesting. It was a memorable and fabulous tour where we felt like rock stars. A big red convertible, blue skies, the Brooklyn bridge....this is what we talk about when describe New York. The photos are great. It was worth every cent. A far cry from the morning's gospel tour and display of mass and crass tourism!
Thanks Isaac - next time we would love to do Brooklyn with you.

| As this is was our first visit to New York and having read other's reviews, we decided to treat ourselves to this tour. I'm so glad we did. We opted for a Sunday morning and chose right - unusually for New York the streets were virtually empty and our guide managed to show us a few extra sights as were not caught up in traffic.
The car is great and onlookers seem to like it too - a few people even took our photo!
Our chauffeur was informative and we managed to see Greenwich Village, Little Italy, Chinatown, the financial district, SoHo, Tribeca and then drove over the Brooklyn Bridge to get some great photos of the Manhatten skyline from Brooklyn.
If your feeling indulgent and like us, only had a short time in the city, then I would most definitely recommend this tour - it is our most treasured memory of our holiday. |
