| This tour was recommended by someone who had taken it in the past. I was skeptical at first, thinking of how much of NYC I could see from a van just driving around and five hours seemed like a long tour. But I was pleasantly surprised of the amount of things we saw and how much information was shared about the city. I can truly say I was disappointed when it was over....I wanted more!
Steve was great. In addition to the knowledge and history of the city, he also shared with us his personal experiences and view of the city. I would recommend this tour to anyone and everyone. |

| The best thing we did in New York was take the tour with King Steve. I first thought that we should take the tour on saturday but it was full so we decided to take it Friday. This is after realizing we would not get to sleep the night before until atleast 2:00 a.m. and also try to get up 3 kids the next morning. But it was well worth it. We learned about the city - that it made the rest of our trip better. There is something for everyone on the tour. All the kids enjoyed it (18, 17 and 9). He was interesting, funny, opinionated and very enjoyable. I will recommend King of NYC to everyone and also to make sure to take it as soon as they get there. |

| The background information given by the guide helped us understand the different areas of Manhattan so we could later go to any area for an in depth visit. We were impressed by the cleanliness and safety of the city. It was easy for us to traverse the city after our tour. |

| We first took this tour about 8 -10 years ago, on our first trip since 1970 (when we hated NYC.) We took the tour on the recomendation of a concierge and absolutely loved it! Since then, I have sent a number of friends on it and they, too, loved it, so we decided to take it again. Steve has such a wealth of information about NYC, its history, and really seems to love the city. He communicates that love really well and helped us to understand the city much better.
One member of our group was a relative who lives in NYC and she intends to take her out-of-town visitors on the tour so they can experience it, too.
My only problem is that Steve doesn't "pitch" his program enough -- he should give everyone a business card and encourage them to send their friends. Everyone who goes to NYC should go on this tour!

| Steven is a showman with a lot of information. The time spent with him was energetic and enlightening. He added great insight into stone buildings and neighborhoods, not just regurgitaing facts. He made you feel the heart of the city. |

| We thoughly enjoyed out tour. We were looking to see as much of NY as we could thats why we picked this trip. I would like to have had more time at a few places. I didn't enjoy the Katzs deli. I didn't like the no refund policy. We had one person who couldn't make it at the last minute. |

| An excellent tour in a very comfortable coach with a marvellously informative host whose outgoing personality, sense of humour and philisophical meanderings(!) were a major factor in our enjoyment of it. We took the tour at the beginning of our holiday because we wished to see as much of the city as possible and learn about its history, its people and its many places of interest and, thanks to our host, we were not disappointed in this respect. It was a most enjoyable day and was a brilliant starter to our stay in New York. We chose your Company on the strength of a personal recommendation and would be happy to make a similar recommendation ourselves. May you continue to reign supreme as "King" for a long time to come!!
Very many thanks. |
