| This is a wonderful introductory tour to New York. It has the feel of a private tour given by a guide who is really interested in making sure that you get a comprehensive understanding of the history of New Yorks buildings and other sites while also giving you insight into the daily life of New Yorkers. Steve was our guide and we were very happy with his lively personality and intriguing stories. A definite must do for anyone visiting New York. |

| It was an excellent an very thorough tour. However, I have taken the tour before and it is not quite as good as it was. Before the person giving the tour went with us to provide highlights of the various places we visited. This time he also served as the bus driver and therefore was not able to provide the additional insight. With that said, the tour was excellent and much better then the local competition where you are constantly stopping to pick up and drop off passengers. |

| Steve Duer, the owner of Marvelous Manhattan Tours, lead our tour and it was fantastic. His enthusiasm and passion for New York City combine to create an informative and entertaining experience. We went on the tour the first day of a four-day visit and it really helped us feel more at home and appreciative of what the city has to offer. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who is planning a trip to New York City area. |

| While not new to NY, we did learn a lot during our 4.5 hour trip through midtown and downtown Manhattan. Our guide Stephen communicated his love for the city and did so in a humourous and informative way. Being a small group (12 people) in a minibus helped create a congenial atmosphere and allowed for interactivity; at one stage, we even got into a heated argument over the respective merits of Obama and Bush. We only had time for the morning trip, but next time we will definitely do the whole day tour. |

| This is our third tour with Steve. The first time with another couple. We liked it so much that when we organized a trip of 20 friends to go to NYC we thought this the perfect way to intoduce them to the city. They still talk about it.
This third tour was with my family. There were 9 of us. This included 6 adults and three grandchildren ages from 12 to 15. All greatly enjoyed the trip.
Obviously if you take something three times and all who go with you rave about the tour it is something you want to also recommend to others, |

All the hype is right! Rock on Steve!

| I don't normally do tours, I read up on the subject and do it myself. But now I'm an old boy with less time than I want, I thought I'd get as many boxes ticked as quickly as possible. Steve ticked them for me, and many more besides! Knowledgeable, informative, witty, a cool driver, well organised and a good listener, which these guys often aren't. We bounced stuff to and fro, and I hope I wasn't a royal pain in the ass, but it seemed to work okay. As he said, I was an extrovert and couldn't stop myself, so let it roll. Steve is definitely on my recommend list. Great tour! |
