| If you do nothing else in New York, book a date with this Company.
The Guide is a guy called Steve, who is not only your guide for the day, but he is also a great companion who knows his stuff. We enjoyed every minute with Steve, a true embassador of Manhatten. His wit and enthusiasm is endless, and I am sure he enjoys HIS work as much as we enjoyed his tour. Basically Steve has so much energy for his days out with his customers. A real New Yorker who gives you the benefit of his knowledge of the City. He has the answer for every question you can throw at him, and the Guy really knows New York.
Thanks Steve for a fabulous day out, we didn't want it to end.

| What a way to start a short break in New York. Steve was an absolute gem !! very knowledgeable and humorous, kept us interested and amused all day. It was our 40th anniversary and Steve and our fellow travellers made it a day for us to remember. I cannot rate this too highly. Thanks Steve for a tremendous day out.

| This was a tour recommended by friends. It was an enjoyable experience but expensive. Worth considering alternative tours that appear similar for far less money (about $60). Perhaps we were unlucky as there were only 8 of us on the day and two of them were not booked on the full day trip and consequently left at midday. Avoid Mondays as first stop of the day is closed.
On a positive note the Guide/Driver was a nice guy and immensely knowledgable - an encyclopaedia of information.
Glad we did the trip as it was our first visit to NY.
New York is just amazing! |

| 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 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. |

Can not imagine doing NYC without this tour

| First time to NYC. We could not have had trip we did and enjoyed ourselves more than expected, had we not started our visit with this tour. Steve was outstanding, truly cared about the city and made all of us feel as a special guest of both New York and his. Steve is a rare find.
Starting the visit off with this tour allowed us to then maximize our time in the city. Extremely valuable and should be mandatory for all first time visitors and should be considered for most of the residents of the city to appreciate where they live.
Great great great. Please do yourself the favor and do this tour.
Thank you for making our trip that much better. |

| Steve is terrific: He doesn't bore you with a ceaseless flow of trivia but rather informs you and shows you a fantastic slice of NYC. It is really obvious that he is a committed NYer who gets a kick out of his product.
There are MANY guides in this city. I am one of them. There are a number of good guides in the city but a vastly greater number of awful ones. Steve is a VERY good guide.
Highly recommended |

| Friendly and very informative. This was our second trip to New York. I got to know New York in one day compared to two days from the last time. I felt like having my own chauffeur.
The only thing I recommend is Steve have a portable microphone so you don't need to lose your voice as much.
I made copies from the internet to share with my friends and their friends.
Keep up the good work. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed our fantastic tour with our host Steven at the wheel. Stevens supurb knowledge of New York City and the surrounds along with his humorous presentation was most enjoyable. From time to time Steven's opinions of none tour related items and of items of current events and/or political happenings were both outright funny and interesting. A full day of informative sight seeing and enjoyable conversation. Well worth the price of admission!
