| I really enjoyed this very thorough tour of uptown and downtown. The day went by so fast! Stephen was a great speaker with a lot of knowledge about his city. I loved that we stopped for lunch at Katz's Deli! I would recommend this tour to anyone. |

| Marvellous Manhattan tours gives you exactly what it says and Stephen is a truly great guide. He is passionate about New York and not only shows you all the main sights but gives you information and takes you to places that really makes you understand this great City and how is continually changing. I had been on another tour on my first time to NYC but this was the first time for my son. I saw and learnt more things on this tour and we both thought it was fascinating and a great day. Well done Stephen and long may you continue to show the true New York to countless other tourists.
ps. the pastrami at Katz's was fantastic |

| The tour provided my friend, a first time visitor to New York, an insight into all the main highlights of Manhattan Island in one day. I had already visited the city on two previous occassions, but getting the insider view from a local was great and I saw the sights from a different perspective. Steve, the guide, was friendly and enthusiastic. He created a good group atmosphere and was ready to answer all questions. By the end of the day we felt we had certainly seen the highlights of the city and could then choose the parts we wanted to go back and explore further. I would certainly recommend the tour and suggest that you do it on the first day so you can get you barings and decide what you want to see more of. Only downside was the lunch stop at Katz diner, which was billed as a highlight but was ridiculously busy and in our view, not overly clean. I guess it was an authentic New York experience, but not one I would choose to repeat. This aside, it was fun, friendly and good value. |

| 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. |

| Our group consisted of three adults and one child. Would definitely recommend to others visiting New York. Tour was Very interesting and informative and made even more interesting by our tour guide. Being able to visit some of the sites on foot made the day even more enjoyable. |
