| We were only in NY for a short trip to celebrate a big birthday, so this tour gave us such a individual and different perspective of NY. Isaac, our driver, was brilliant and so informative. We were fortunate enough to do an early evening tour and got to see the wonderful Manhattan lights from Brooklyn Heights. The car is wonderful and is a real head turner! We were able to sit back and look up from the comfort of a sofa on wheels!
We would highly recommend this tour to anyone - even if you have visited NY before - just to get a different perspective.
Thanks also to Isaac for the birthday gift! |

Great fun with lots of local highlights!

| Found this tour on the web and read the reviews. They were absolutely correct and my husband and I had a wonderful time celebrating my 50th birthday. We met Isaac (who came with birthday cupcakes) in Greenwich Village and everyone turned to look at the bright red convertible! The tour was the highlight of our weekend in New York. We were able to get more information and see everything without the craziness of the big red bus generic tour. We lucked out with beautiful weather too. Isaac was very knowledgable and had lots of stories to share and answered all our questions. He even made a follow-up phone call to be sure we got back to the hotel safely on the subway. Would reccommend to anyone visiting NY to make this trip a priority. Thanks for making my birthday memorable. |

| I loved this tour. Isaac, the guide, is fun and accommodating. The red Chevy convertible is a hoot to ride around in -- everyone notices you, talks to you, comments on your "hot" wheels. And being roofless is the best way to take in the "canyons" of New York. Greatly enjoyed it. |

A really good 2 hour insight into New York

| We had a mid morning time slot for our 2hr tour which was ideal.
Izaak, the guide was friendly, informative and knowledgable about the areas that we visited. The weather was fab! clear blue skies and unseasonally warm temperatures, ideal for the open topped aspect of the tour.
We were only visiting the city for 3 days so it was an ideal way of covering a lot of ground in a short space of time enabling us to decide which areas we would like to return to on foot to explore in more depth.
It was a great morning, well worth booking if you are visiting New York. |

| Enjoyed the 2 hr. tour. Issac was informative and showed you the city rather well. Really enjoyed going over to Brooklyn. Weather cooperated which was a real plus.
Also wanted to say that it was great to have the tour company keep in touch. They contacted me before I made it to NYC and also on the Saturday of the tour. This left you feeling that you were dealing with a reputable company.

| 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.

| 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. |
