| We loved the drive around downtown manhattan with Isaac. He was very informative and we had a ball. We were on our honeymoon so I had booked it as a surprise for my new husband and he was delighted. I would highly recommend this . |

| I took my teenage nieces on this trip. We all had a great time despite the weather. Issac was very sweet , knowledgable, and lots of fun. I will book another trip next time I am in town and will recommend it enthusiastically to anyone visiting NY.

| The tour is an experience we will always remember. It was my third time in NY and this was far better than any tour I've been on. It was my girlfriends first time in NY and she hasn't stopped talking about it since we got back. Good times! Isaac was informative, funny, a great story teller and gave us the opportunity to shoot some great pictures. We felt like movie stars in the car. Oh and thank you for the pizza tip!!

| I booked this tour as a surprise for my mother on our recent trip to New York. It was her first time in New York and my 8th so I wanted to find something that would interest us both, and this really did. My mother's face as she rounded the corner to see the car we would be travelling in was priceless. And Isaac deserves huge praise for being the perfect host, showing us sights that we would otherwise have missed.
I would heartily recommend this tour to anyone wanting something a little bit more personal than many other tours on offer ... and it's a great feeling cruising around Greenwich Village and SoHo and watching the heads turn to look at the beautiful car!
Only tip - if you are planning to do this tour during the autumn months, it can get chilly in the car, so take a hat! |

| We had the best time on our tour! It was informative and helped us get a better perspective on the various regions of town. Isaac was extremely personable and insightful. The only thing is I wish we had a "route map" so that we could have marked some of the fabulous places we'd like to have revisited. We saw so many things and heard so much information that at the end of the day it kind of ran together. As a "visual learner" I should have at least had my tourist map out taking notes.
I would most highly recommend the tour for those who are a bit overwhelmed by the Times Square scene and are more interested in how "real people" live in NYC. |

| 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! |

| We were really impressed with the fact that having booked once and had to cancel because of illness, we were offerred another trip which we were able to take. Isaac proved to be a very thoughtful host. He was extremely knowledgeable about the districts we we went through, and he took us through many! He was a great conversationalist. We would reccomend this tour with Isaac unreservedly. |

| Fisrt-timers in New York and we couldn't have had a better introduction. The car is fantastic and drew admiring glances everywhere we went as well as lots of comments from other drivers.
Isaac, our guide, was knowledgable, friendly and patient when answering questions he must get asked daily.
The places he took us avoided Uptown and Midtown Manhattan and we realised this is still a group of small neighbourhoods, each with their own distinct personailty. The sights and atmosphere were truly amazing. If you don't know New York, this is THE tour. We loved it. Thanks.

| 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!
