| My daughter and I enjoyed this on our first day of our first trip to Manhattan. It provided a good overview of the importanty sights, and pointed us in a positive direction on things to explore on our own. |

| Before we purchased this tour I read other reviews that had been posted by previous visitors. Well, I must say everything they raved about was true. The whole day was packed with information. The group was small which allowed for personal questions & comments. We took the tour the second day we were there which was great timing. The city had seemed so busy & mashed together. The tour guide explained the different districts that make up the city. That really helped us to see how Manhattan is laid out. He even explained the lingo that the locals use to identify where in the city you are. It was great to have the history of many areas explained to us as we drove through the streets. The tour guide gave us so much information about Manhattan that we definately got our money's worth. He was very personable & really made the day. We had our 15 year old daughter with us & she enjoyed the tour.
The place where we stopped for lunch had options within a very short distance. Good location choice!
If you're looking for tour options this is the one you'll enjoy. WE DID!! |

| 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. |

| I had this tour recommended by a friend. It was small and personal and fun too. I can say that I definitely saw all of Manhattan or least every well known site. I also visited some things on my own tour which the tour helped me get acquainted. Steve was very energetic and lots of fun too. I will definitely recommend it to my friends and family. Since it was the first time to New York I wanted to get a good feel of it which I think this tour did that.
Thanks,

| I really enjoyed our tour of NY. Instead of just focusing on the main tourist stops Steve showed us the city through a local's eyes. It is a great way to start your visit to NYC. Lunch was spectacular! |

| 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. |

| Loved the tour and Steve's personality. Lot's of information. We took the tour our first full day and it really gave us a "lay of the land". We felt very secure the next day on our own exploring the city, then we knew uptown from downtown. Steve has lots of opinions on various subjects and I personally felt it was refreshing to hear his take on things, rather than the usual tour guide script.Totally worth the money. Katz Deli's was great for lunch. Never would have gone there if not for the tour. |
