| Steve, our guide, admitted to being under the weather. He brought his two children along with him. Neither of these conditions detracted from the valuable service he provided. He was courteous and very informative.
Steve first gave us an overview of what he would be covering with his tour. He talked about the boroughs, the layout of New York, and he went over some terms that we needed to know as we traversed Manhattan. This initial explanation helped us immensely.
Steve shared knowledge about New York that helped us to understand New Yorkers. He gave more details than other tour guides gave us.
Although under the weather, he injected humor, he was engaging and very helpful. |

| As a first time visitor to The Big Apple, it was recommended to me by a co-worker to take this tour. I'm glad that I did!
Our tour guide was great and so knowledgeable. Since there were only a few of us that day, it felt like we were on a private tour of the city. All the stops were great but the information was even better. It was great to learn things like the way the streets are mapped out and how the city is broken down. It was so helpful when getting out on your own. Whaterver questions we asked, he was able to answer.
I highly recommend this to anyone visiting the city. |

| This was the second time I have taken this tour. This time I was traveling with my daughter and daughter-in-law. Our tour guide, Steve, who is native to the area knew all there is to know about the city. There wasen't anything we asked about that Steve didn"t know the answer. We liked the fact that the tour is small groups and not some
big double-decker bus. I have recommended this tour to many people and would certainly do it again. |

| This tour was awesome because the guide knew his stuff on what he was talking about. He also kept it funny and he catered to everyone's age differences. I would take this tour again and I would reccommend it to my other family and friends. |

| As first time visitors to Manhattan with a limited number of days to spend there, we took this highly recommended tour. Our tour guide was energetic, humorous and was very thorough in explaining what to expect and a brief history of each experience. We saw and learned about more sights and fun Manhattan insider stuff in 6 1/2 hours than we could have in 3 days. |

| My husband and I chose this tour based on other reviews and because we prefer a smaller group - we were not disappointed. Steve provided us with a lot of information (as well as laughs) about Manhattan and we saw places we would not have seen otherwise. I would absolutely recommend this over a large group tour.

| The tour guide knew a lot about the city and took the passengers to all the main points of Manhattan with short stops to get some closer looks. It was some long stretches in the car though, and with all the traffic, there were some jerky stops, so if you get car sick, this is not the tour for you. My friend and I are in our early 30's and some of the commentary by the guide seemed geared more toward some of the older people on the tour, but since there were eight guests all together, there were times for individual questions. Overall though, it was a nice overall glimpse of Manhattan and gave us ideas of what areas we would like closer looks at. |
