| We were recommended to take this tour by friends who had done it and we were not disappointed. This was our first trip to NY and the tour was a perfect way to see the main sights and get a good feel for the city. Steve's depth of knowledge, his enthusiasm, his humour and the clarity of his delivery make him an ideal guide. The bus was comfortable and the duration of the tour just right. I and my partner have done quite a few city tours and this was far and away the best we have ever done. Absolutely brilliant and thank you so much. |

| I hate guided tours and normally go it alone with a map but was recommended to the king of new york city and came away with a font of knowledge about new york and the people that live there.
There were three of us aged between 73 and 13 and all of us thoroughly enjoyed our day.
The tour was in a comfortable bus, ample refreshment and toilet breaks and stopping at Katz's deli was a true new york experience.
So my advice is - if you are going to take any tours, make sure it is with the king of new york. |

| Steve was knowledgeable and very enthusiastic about his city. He shared his knowledge with the tour and we all learnt things about New York we would never have known if not for the tour. He also shared some of his ides and thoughts which was great to here things from the perspective of someone who lives in the city and travels around it every day. I would recommend every first time visitor take tis tour. |

| Stephen was a great guide, extremely informative and funny. He gave our small group a rare insight into some lesser known aspects of NY life. I would heartily recommend the tour to friends. |

| We enjoyed the tour and felt that the items included were excellent. You covered a great deal in the day. We also very much enjoyed lunch at Katz.
We felt that there was too much political view given and we felt uncomfortable. As international visitors, you suggested that we would not necessarily see things the same as the Americans and that may be so, but it would be nice to not be singled out when we don't even know anybody else in the group. We realize that Ground Zero will bring discussion, but as the tour guide we feel that you should be impartial and not let your own opinions come forward |

| Our first time to New York. Decided on Time Square location for base as we had a little over 24 hrs. The tour started promptly at 9:00 a.m. with Steve. We covered so much territory between 9:00 and 3:30, it was unbelievable. Steve is full of knowledge, and very ambitious, not a slacker by any means. He is so passionate about New York and making the best experience for the customer. This was unbelievable. Beautiful day and great time!! I will use this service again, just hope we get Steve. |

| I highly recommend this tour. Our guide Steven shared so many interesting details about the city. He was also an excellent driver. You are on a small van with around 12-15 other people so it isn't impersonal like the double decker bus tours. Steven knew all of our names and where we were from. We were only able to do the half day tour due to time constraints but will definitely do the full day tour on our next visit to NYC. |

| This tour is an excellent way to see the entire city in one day. It was a great option for us as it was our first visit to the city and we only had one day to sight see. We were able to view all the traditional sites from the comfort of a shuttle. Although there were numerous opportunities to get off the shuttle and explore for a short period.
The tour only allows 12-14 people which ensures that it will be personalized. The tour guide, Steve, is very entertaining and funny. But, what amazed me most was his vast knowledge of the city and all of the boroughs. I learned so much about NYC and now know what areas I want to return to in future visits.
My brother in law was on the tour with us and he has been to NYC on many occassions for business. He really enjoyed this tour and said he would definitely recommend this to others.
It is a great option if you have people in your group that have trouble getting around - this tour allows them to see the whole city in a day with little stress and lots of entertainment.
I would highly recommend this tour to all!!! |
