| 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.

| We booked the open top bus tour for two days and used that to get around the city. We did the entire bus loop approx. three times. Your tour covered a lot of the same stuff. Because your driver was a local, he was knowledgeable, more so than any other tour guide. I know time is an issue, but you should try to cover different things. ( the Irish countryside is a good example). It was fun and I would recommend this.

| So glad we found this site as it gave us the opportunity to see a different side of New York at night.
We really appreciated the chance of being able to stop and take photos at some of New York's less known views & attractions.
We'll always remember being a movie "extra" on Brooklyn Bridge and the "unique" aromas and sounds of Chinatown (Remember the garbage truck Isaac???)
(Both of these an unexpected but still fun addition to the tour!!)
Thanks Isaac for making our son's 21st birthday and our first visit to New York so special
****A Highly Recommended & Informative tour**** |

| Really enjoyed the day, the tour was very informative, the guide was very pleasant, and knew New York like the back of his hand.
The only down side was that we had to get a cab to the other end of Manhattan, maybe it would be a good ideal to collect customers from their hotel.
Ideal way though to see New York, something different which will always stay in your mind.
Many thanks for the experince!!!

| Having a ride with a classic convertible car in NYC was really an unforgetable experience. I strongly recommend it especially if you have limited time in the city. Even if you have more than 2-3 days to spend, it is still a very good option because it gives you a sound idea how the districts of the city looks like, which will be very usefull for your future planning. Also I want to take this oportunity to thank our guide, Isaac for making this short trip so special for us. |

The convertible tour of New York was one of the highlights of our holiday. From the ease of booking, the phonecalls to our room advising us of weather issues, the convenient meeting place to the content of the tour made it a very special experience. However, to make it even better, the knowledge, experience and manner of our driver, Issac, was outstanding. From the moment he picked us up to the moment he left us he was friendly and full of interesting information which gave us a great insight into the history of New York and it's inhabitants.
We would like to extend our thanks to Issac and FunTours of New York for a truly excellent package and would recommend ANYONE to do this. It was so much more personal than sitting on a crowded bus!
Thank You

| I recently purchased 2 tickets to the convertible tour as a gift to friends visiting New York from out of town. They are a tough audience to please and have been flying around the world during the past few weeks, so I knew I needed something unique and different from the other tours around the city. This was the perfect choice! They had an amazing time and had only great things to say about Isaac. Later on we looked at photos of them standing next to the car with wide smiles. I am happy to say that I sent them back to Australia with priceless pics and a story to tell all of their friends and family. Thank you, Isaac! |

| I'll keep it short because I would just repeat myself over and over by saying "Great"! Our guide, Isaac, was informative, personable and knowledgeable. My wife and I had so much fun and everybody stares at the red convertible. You feel like a big shot, even though you didn't pay big shot prices! The neighborhood in Greenwich Village where we started and ended our tour has the perfect atmosphere of what we had pictured Greenwich Village to be. My wife and I would rate this a "must" tour if you are coming to New York! |

| We were disappointed when our tour was postponed by a week due to unseasonably wet weather. However, when we did take the tour it was a fabulously sunny day and we had one of the best experiences we have ever had! You feel really special driving with the top down and the car gets a brilliant reaction. We have seen a lot in New York having visited before; but Isaac, the driver, showed us a couple of places we never even knew existed (The Irish Hunger Memorial and Battery Park City) - both well worth a look. These were the highlights of the trip for us as they were so unexpected. We also enjoyed the trip over the Brooklyn Bridge and the tour around Brooklyn Heights. This is a nice touch. This is highly recommended if you want a tour of Lower Manhattan in style!! It's certainly the most original tour available. |
