| 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. |

| We all highly appreciated this tour, our 17 year old son as much as we. The driver was pleasant and very knowledgeable, and showed us interesting sights plus a few "secret" places. The day was sunny but cold and windy, we survived thanks to the blankets supplied, but recommend warm clothing. This was on a Sunday morning, which seemed perfect from a traffic point-of-view. A fortnight after coming back to Geneva, we can say this memory stands out as a highlight of our holidays. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed driving around lower Manhattan with a very experienced, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable guide. This is a great way to assimilate quickly the various neighbourhoods and would provide many ideas of what to do during the rest of your trip if you booked it as one of the first outings of your visit. We did it as the very last thing, but it has left us with a thirst to return and spend more time in some of the places we saw. |

| We were met on time by the chauffeur, Isaac, who came armed with ice cold bottles of water and a sunny smile! He was very welcoming, friendly and enthusiastic about his city and told us all about it in a relaxed and comfortable manner. HIs knowledge was considerable and he was able to answer all our questions. There was hardly a moment when he wasn't telling us something about the city and its sights. He also knew all the best vantage points and stopped to give us time to take photographs.It was certainly an education and the two and a half hours the trip took flew by all too quickly. All in all, a throughly enjoyable experience - without doubt the highlight of our four days in NYC and we can recommend this to any visitor to the city without hesitation. |

| We chose to do our tour on our first night. Although we were a bit tired touring around in the convertible the first night gave us a great feel for the city and gave us our bearings. Going across to Brooklyn at night was something we really wanted to do so we could see the skyline all lit up. Being driven across the Brooklyn Bridge in a convertible is definitely the way to do it!
Our guide was fantastic and gave us some really great tips on restaurants and bars in Greenwich.
If you sick of the usual tourist buses and tours this is an excellent alternative. |

| On the day we had booked the rain was coming down sideways! However, we had a phone call the day before to advise us of the forecast and suggest another day - very impressive!
Two days later all was well and we met up with the 70's Chevy and Isaac who was very friendly helpful and informative.
We had a very interesting and enjoyable tour and would strongly recommend it to anyone visiting New York city.
