| We were not disappointed. We reserved for this tour because of what we read on the internet. We chose Marvelous Manhattan Tours because of the small size of the group and the method of transportation - small, comfortable van/bus. |

| When we started the tour I found Steve to be charming, witty and informed. He had witty comments and sort of teasing and bold.
At this point I was a little taken back I turned to see if my family was hearing the same thing, their astonished faces said it all.
They rest of the trip did not get better. He gave his political views, social commentary, and race relations hindered the trip. I found myself holding my tongue rather than enjoying the trip.
He was very informed however his views at time extraneous and inappropriate left me in a bad mood. At one let go and set him straight.The sentiment was felt on the bus as people made cracks at his "preaching".
I also noticed no one leaving a gratuity!
New York it a great place to visit and see! I love the city but not the tour.

| Steve was great at presenting an introduction to New York that prepares you for the rest of your stay. We intentionally took the tour on the first day so that we could paln teh rest of our stay and it sure did help alot. We were able to revisit some places in more detail and also go to others that Steve mentioned that were interesting. He kept everyone interested and had a great conversation, not just a monologue so that every one felt a part of the trip. I would highly recommend this tour and would even take it again the next time that I and in New York. |

| This was the second time I have taken this tour. This time I was traveling with my daughter and daughter-in-law. Our tour guide, Steve, who is native to the area knew all there is to know about the city. There wasen't anything we asked about that Steve didn"t know the answer. We liked the fact that the tour is small groups and not some
big double-decker bus. I have recommended this tour to many people and would certainly do it again. |

| The host, Steve, was fun, knowledgable and a real hoot.
I was sorry to see the tour come to an end, I could have driven around all day with him. After the tour, my group felt that we were New Yorkers from birth. |

| 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! |

| We took the six hour tour which was excellent! Steve was our tour guide and was very informative and friendly. He gave us an extensive tour of Manhatten and highlighted many areas and buildings that we would not have known about on our own. Lunch at Katz's Deli was great. We highly recommend this tour for both the content and price. It would make any visit to NYC highly memorable. Thanks Steve!!! |

| it ws wonderful. Our guide, Steven, was great. He was humorous, accommadating and full of facts . He was also charming and gracious. His love for New York was very evident. The tour was wonderful. It gave a glimpse into the authentic part of the city, not just the tourist things. I would highly recommend it to my friends. |
