| Steve is consistent and energetic about New York. A good representative for New York City. My fifth tour with him and probably will not be the last. |

| My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the Royal Bus tour of NYC. The tour was highly recommended by our friends in North Carolina. Our 17 year old daughter and her friend learned so much about the city in a very short time frame. Steve was so entertaining. His passion for NYC is evident and is shared by all tour members.
I would highly recommend this activity to anyone. Several members of our group were on their 5th tour with Steve. I plan to recommend the tour to anyone I know planning a trip to NYC. Thanks so much for sharing NYC with us, Steve. You were fantastic! |

| Steve was a fabulous tour guide. He was very entertaining as well as informative. Our group even passed one of the other tour lines and commented about how bored they all seemed to be!!!!! Not the case with our group.
We also thought that George, the driver, needed some kind of award for maneuvering the "people mover" in and out of traffic.
The only complaint that I had was the lunch stop. I know that it is a favorite of Steve's, but of all the meals that we had over a period of six days, that one was the worst. Maybe I just chose the wrong thing. I didn't get the Pastrami. I got chicken salad instead.
Overall, I highly recommend the Marvelous Manhattan tour. If information and details were priced by line item, the price of the Marvelous Manhattan tour is a real bargain!!!!! |

| On the day we, my wife and I, had booked the tour for, there was noone else on this tour, but Stephen did the tour altough, what is not naturally.
This was the best tour we've ever had, we feeled like exploreing New York with a friend. It was informative, it was greate. Whenever we should be in New York again, we will do a tour with Stephen again. |

| This tour had been recommended to us from a friend who had gone to NY about 6 years ago. She said if there was any way we could get the "King" to do our tour we would be VERY lucky! Since it had been six years and I read on the website that other tour guides had joined the company I figured the chances were slim that we would actually get Stephen (aka King) heading our tour. Needless to say I was thrilled when the bus pulled up and there he was... smiling away. This was not the average tour. There were only eleven of us on the bus and it was very interactive. It was more like having a friend from New York show you around. I would most definately recommend this tour and thought it was worth every penny we spent.

| I took this tour on the day before I left NY and what a fantastic way to finish off my wonderful trip! Joe, our tour guide, was perfect - a true new yorker with a love and knowledge of the city which made you want to go back!
A great way to start any trip to NY because you get to see the places you might like to go and see some more of. It was great to sit back and be driven all around, we were a nice small group on the day I went and so it was a chance to chat more with the tour guide.
I would highly recommend this tour, it was an insight into the city and the day just flew by! Thanks Joe! |

| The tour with Stephen as our fearless leader, was truly more entertaining than the two Broadway plays we attended while we were in NYC. He gave a huge insight into the lives of local New Yorkers and a vivid history of this crammed town.....( coming from Texas there was a lot of close quarters....) Highly recommend this to all my friends and give it 5 stars... |
