| 1. The guide was very animated, friendly and knowledgable (but did have a bit of an angry sulk when a couple of people were a bit late back to the bus - in fact he ignored them as they got on).
2. Tour was a very good introduction for New York novices like us.
3. The Katz Deli needs to be taken off the itinerary. The food was horrible, the place was scruffy and the prices extortionate. The guide made us feel obiged to have lunch there, and why anyone needs that much meat in a sandwich is completely beyond me! A horrible experience.
Kind regards |

| We highly recommend the Marvelous Manhattan Tour with Steve. Great 'first day' activity if you're spending a few days in Manhattan. Not only was his humor enjoyable, he gave good info about the history of many of the sights. He also taught us about the different boroughs and how the grid is layed out for Manhattan so we could navigate the island with more ease if we planned to venture out again on our own. |

| From beginning to end, the most entertaining and informative tour of Manhattan.
Steve answered all questions with knowledge, humor and professionalism. I would take it again just to enjoy a tour of NY and not have to navigate, cab or subway to so many fun and interesting sites. Please keep up the excellent tour. A great value for the price. |

| The sites that we got to see were very interesting but the tour guide was too wordy!
It would of been nice to stop somewhere along the way to buy some souvenirs also.
My friends and I enjoyed the tour but wished that we got to stop somewhere and buy some things along the way. |

| We liked the knowledge of the tour guide We fell for the cost of this tour there should have been more time spent on walking various ares of the city getting the feel of the areas.. When we talk to friends who have taken other tours we feel they recieved more value. We would not recommend this to anyone under the age of 80. |

| Steve, our guide, admitted to being under the weather. He brought his two children along with him. Neither of these conditions detracted from the valuable service he provided. He was courteous and very informative.
Steve first gave us an overview of what he would be covering with his tour. He talked about the boroughs, the layout of New York, and he went over some terms that we needed to know as we traversed Manhattan. This initial explanation helped us immensely.
Steve shared knowledge about New York that helped us to understand New Yorkers. He gave more details than other tour guides gave us.
Although under the weather, he injected humor, he was engaging and very helpful. |

| As a first time visitor to The Big Apple, it was recommended to me by a co-worker to take this tour. I'm glad that I did!
Our tour guide was great and so knowledgeable. Since there were only a few of us that day, it felt like we were on a private tour of the city. All the stops were great but the information was even better. It was great to learn things like the way the streets are mapped out and how the city is broken down. It was so helpful when getting out on your own. Whaterver questions we asked, he was able to answer.
I highly recommend this to anyone visiting the city. |
