| WE WERE CELEBRATING OUR 50TH ANNIVERSARY WITH THREE DAYS IN NYC
AND THEN OFF TO A NEW ENGLAND CRUISE. THERE WERE 6 IN OUR GROUP
AND WE THOUGHT THIS WAS THE PERFECT WAY TO SEE A LITTLE OF ALL
NEW YORK. WELL, WE WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED. WHAT A WONDERFUL WAY
TO SEE ALL THE SIGHTS OF NYC. STEPHEN DUER IS VERY PROUD OF HIS CITY
AS WELL AS "VERY" INFORMATIVE & INTERTAINING. IN FACT, HE IS DOWN RIGHT FUN. THE TOUR COVERED UPTOWN, MIDTOWN, DOWNTOWN, AND PLACES IN BETWEEN! WE ALL AGREED, THERE WAS NO WAY WE COULD HAVE EVER COVERED ALL THE FUN PLACES THERE ARE TOO SEE. FROM SARDI'S
TO GRAND CENTRAL STATION, STATUE OF LIBERTY, A PASTRIMI LUNCH TO DIE FOR, AND MUCH MUCH MORE. IF YOUR GOING TO NEW YORK FOR 1 DAY OR MANY, WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND "MARVELOUS MANHATTAN TOURS".
THANKS A MILLION STEPHEN, IT WAS A WONDERFUL DAY! |

| Having visited New York many times my wife and I decided to put it all together with the Royal Bus Tour. Our tour host was very informative and provided many entertaing moments. His ability to interact with the various tourist on the bus was awesome. I recommend this tour for a great and enjoyable way to see and learn much about New York City and not be totally exhausted by the experience. -Wayne from Louisiana |

| I felt that is was a good general (Orentation) tour of Manhattan.
I would have liked to see Wall Street and the place where George Washington was inaugrated. I was told that wer were not going there because of security regulations.
I was able to go there briefly the day before and there were no security problems.
I feel that the tour guides should have better communication with the concerages at the hotels where they pick the people up from. The congerage at the New York Hilton said that they would come in and get me and in reality they were waiting for me outside the hotel. When the tour guide (Steve?) could not wait for me any longer he left a message for me at my hotel room. I was waiting for the bus outside the hotel and I was not able to get the message until the tour was over. When I was tired of waiting in the lobby. The Concerage called ZERV who contacted the tour guide. The tour guide said that they would wait 10 minutes for me at a certian spot.
I had to take a taxi inorder to catch up with the tour group.
This could have been advoided if the tour guide had better communication with the hotels. |

| Most in depth review of such a diverse place as NYC. I would thusiastically recommend this trip to anyone that is traveling to NYC. He prepared us for a very exciting place by giving us the lingo and orienting us so we knew where to go and how to get there. Very, very enjoyable; we could have come back for day two of the tour. |

Fantastic!!!

| This was our first time in New York, and Steve was great from the get go. He is very friendly and informative. He is also entertaining....had many great laughs along the way. Geographically, I have a better understanding of the city, and I felt more comfortable finding my way around. I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone...single, couple, family, etc. |

| The tour guide was knowledgeable, personable and entertaining. The tour was comprehensive and gave us a complete overview of the history of Manahattan. The few stops we made were meaningful and relevant. The short walk in Central Park was lovely and gave us a feel for the beauty of the Park. Steve's information about the various industry neighborhoods was information that was new to me even though I have been to New York many times.
I have already recommended the tour friends, even those in New York, and family members. |

Great Overview of Manhattan

| The only regret is that we did not take the tour the first day we arrieved in New York. It was so much more than just pointing out buildings. Our guide was very informative. I couldn't recommend this enough. Great job!!! |

| My wife and I were very pleased with the tour. Our guide Art Zuckerman was exceptionally knowledgeable about New York. We saw all the sites with a narrative that came from a long study and living in New York. I talked to others that took other tours and they would not compare to this one. Art did a masterful job. I found out about the tour from the people at the Marriott Marquis. Thanks for a wonderful experience. |

| Steve was our tour guide. He did an outstanding job. We were a three generation family of four. I was the oldest (77), my two daughters (50) & (48), and my granddaughter Kelly (24). It was Kelly's first trip to NYC and it made a lasting impression on all of us. We loved every minute of the tour. Steve remembered all of our first names and made NYC come alive for us. His knowledge of NYC and the history of it was incredible. We took the mid-town and downtown tour and the next time we visit we plan to do the uptown tour. Truly New York is a wonderful town! |
