| My wife and I are from central Illinois and were visiting New York for the first time last week. We wanted a small tour that would give us a good, "beginners" overview of the city and some of its highlights. The bus was immaculate. The group size (16), George's skillful driving and Steve's narrative were just right. Steve's enthusiastic presentation, depth of knowledge about all things New York and consideration for his clients (two eight year olds were with the group) was outstanding. Boy, do we know a lot about New York now! It was so entertaining and enjoyable we could easily have repeated it the next day. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone. Thanks Steve and George for a great introduction to your city. |

| Steve is very passionate about his city and he shares his love of it and its history with you in his lively descriptions. He makes you feel like you were part of the moment when the history was made.
Steve possesses a vast knowledge of facts and figures about the city and its historical sights. He knew the answer to every question anyone would ask. And his sense of humor made him more than just a walking New York City encyclopedia.
We appreciated our visit so much more because of what we learned from Steve. Please take this tour if nothing more than to learn how to get around the city, and you will not be disappointed. |

| We enjoyed the up close and personal tour with Steve. The background information and neighborhood tours really increased our knowledge of the city. We felt comfortable with further exploration of the city after learning about avenues, streets, midtown, downtown, etc.
Great information! |

| 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. |

| 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!!!!! |

| The tour was fabulous. I would recommend it to anyone. Tour guide had real indepth information and history to share. His enthusiasm for NYC was obvious and made the tour so much better. I have never been on such an informative tour. We did the half day but wish we had done the full tour. |

| 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... |
