Authentic Lower East Side Manhattan and Brookyln

| Even if you live in New York -- recommend this tour. We are local and went on the tour with a friend in from New Zealand. This is a nice blend of different authentic, ethnic neighborhoods and progressive new Brooklyn (DUMBO) plus a good amount of authentic food from neighborhood establishments that have been around for ages and ages.... a slice of old New York seen through the eyes of the locals. Our tour guide, Isaac, was great -- he knew tons about the area's history, answered questions and gave us an educational tour that was, well, fun. Great views of Manhattan you can only see from vantage points across the river and the combo of Issac driving and a bit of walking made the tour perfect... Go. | ||||||

| Isaac picked us up and whisked us off in a living room on wheels, butta leather white seats in a red convertible that was a scene stealer. highly recommend nightime as you're picked up in daylight and the city twinkles around you as it gets darker. Saw parts of lower manhattan and brooklyn that as someone living in NYC for 25+ years I'd never seen. was with a friend and her 13 and 15 year old and a good time was had by all!!! HIGHLY recommend. | ||||||

| We had a great time with Isaac, he is enthusiastic and knowledgable and obviously loves New York. The food stops were great, I wish we'd had time to go to one more neighborhood, perhaps Greenpoint. Would have preferred a bus to a limo. | ||||||

| Well, it was a small group of 7 which was wonderful and since the van was broken we were driven around in a stretch limo!!! Isaac knew his stuff and I should know as I visit nyc about 3 times a month for the last several years and do stuff EVERY TIME!! Getting to Old Williamsburg where the Hadassic Jews live probably wouldn't be done on my own much less finding places where the food was excellent and seeing the views of Manhattan while eating Jacques Torres sweets was great and having cuban sandwiches in a cuban area of Brooklyn where there is a park that gives an ENTIRE view of manhattan was great. Recommend it to new visitors and others who have visited manhattan 50-500 times! You'll see something new!! | ||||||

| Isaac was a terrific guide! He was extremely knowledgeable about the area, food and culture. He answered all of our questions and it was like spending time with an old friend. Even tho we are fairly local (in Jersey) there was still so much to learn and enjoy. We look forward to more tours from this company. May you continue to have many years of success... | ||||||

| My girlfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour we had around NYC with Isaac, who was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We were only in town for the one day, but with the tour we really felt we'd crammed a lot into 2 hours and seen many highlights of the city. Very highly recommended. | ||||||

| Isaac does a fantastic job of covering hidden spots of New York. We were very impressed with his knowledge of New York City and its history. I would truly recommend this tour to anyone who wishes to see real New York because you will truly leave this city with a great memory. | ||||||

Best of Brooklyn - Eating out the traditional way
|

| We really enjoyed our day in Brooklyn, seeing and tasting our way round the parts of New York not usually visited by tourists. It was good that we were in a small group (6) as we bonded quite quickly and were able to visit the various small eateries without overwhelming the establishments themselves. I particularly liked the Torres chocolate shop and the kinishes and the chollent and the cuban panini was amazing. It was good to be informed by a native New Yorker who really knew his stuff and weaved the MPV adeptly through the streets. We felt completely relaxed and comfortable the whole time we were with him. After we made our Brooklyn trip ,our son came to join us in New York for two days on his way back to the UK from San Francisco and we enthusiastically told him about all that we had seen - he was so impressed that he hired a bicycle and toured Brooklyn on his own and saw some of the sights that we saw - though of course he didnt have the beneffit of our lovely tour guide or taste the food. The sights, the sounds and tastes have left a favourable lasting impression. If I am lucky enough to return to New York in the near future I will definitely take another Zerve trip. | ||||||

| We booked the tour prior to leaving Australia in April and visited Turkey, Greece, Paris and Frankfurt before arriving in New York 2 days before the tour. Having experienced a diverse range of ethnic cuisines en-route, it was a delight to sample the varied range of food and wine, as well as experience the cultural diversity encountered in Brooklyn. It was a fabulous tour and Isaac was an excellent host. We enjoyed every moment, and would certainly recommend this tour to anyone visiting New York, and wanting to do something totally different. This Brooklyn food tour was very memorable to us and stands out as something that we very much enjoyed taking part in. | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||

| We had my two college daughters AND elderly mother. Guide Sam and driver Shariff went out of their way to meet our special needs, adjusting the walking portion as necessary with pleasant and fun attitude. Sam was awesome, completely prepared with history and interesting facts. This gave us a great intro to the city. Since we did it on the first day, they also answered questions and gave advice about our plans for the week. Wonderful. | ||||||

Exciting and fun introduction to the city

| I purchased this tour for my sister-in-law, her two teenaged daughters, and my three teenaged daughters. My SIL and I have been to New York numerous times, but it was a first-time trip for our girls. We had show tickets and other outings planned, but we really wanted to start out the trip with a bang, and this tour was just the ticket. We kept it as a surprise for the girls. We wanted them to be wowed with some of the "glitz" factor of the city. Having a gleaming white limousine pull up in front of our hotel on Saturday morning to take us for a private three-hour overview of the city made for some excited, giggling teens. Our tour guide, Sam, was personable, informative, and friendly. He was also (my thirteen-year old informed me afterwards) "a hottie." He seemed very proud of his city and not only told us myriad facts about the history and culture, but pointed out some neat shopping places which the girls hit with credit cards blazing the next day. He was a terrific tour guide and I recommend him whole-heartedly. The limo was very clean and the driver was uniformed. We all felt very "uptown." Although the limo will pick you up and drop you at your hotel, when our tour was over, we requested to be dropped in Chinatown for some shopping, and Sam was happy to do that. I only have one complaint about the tour, and that is why this rating is four stars and not five. Our driver conducted some kind of business on his cell phone for the entire tour. Whatever business he was conducting seemed much more interesting and important to him than we were. We all noticed, and it did detract from the "glamour" of the experience. The driver is supposed to open the limo doors, help you in and out of the limo, and pick you up when you make a stop and walk for a few minutes to see some attraction, like the view across to Ellis Island, or the Irish Hunger Memorial. But our driver talked on his cell phone during the entire tour, even if he did open the door -- that phone was glued to his ear. Several times he did not exit the limo when we did, and once he failed to meet us at a rendezvous point at the WTC Ground Zero for about ten minutes. I think that when one pays that much for someone's time for three hours, that their mind should be on their job, not on their own personal business. Our tour guide, Sam, was very attentive and made us feel very special. The driver, whose name escapes me, made us feel as though we were intruding on his private time. If my daughters had not been with us, I would have said something to him about it. But other than that one blot, the experience was first-rate, and I highly recommend it, especially if your children have never been in a chauffeured limousine before. | ||||||
