| Our group thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The tour guide was funny, friendly and very attentive. It was as though he knew everyone personally. And to top it off his knowledge of NYC was exceptional.
I definately recommend this tour to anyone who would like a good overview of NYC.
Thank you very much Marvelous Manhattan Tours :)

| 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. |

| We were not disappointed. We reserved for this tour because of what we read on the internet. We chose Marvelous Manhattan Tours because of the small size of the group and the method of transportation - small, comfortable van/bus. |

| i thought this trip was great fun and informative of the city. A great trip to learn your way round the city. The host was great fun and made the day very enjoyable. I would recommend this trip as soon as you were in the city because it gives you a great over all look at the city and learns you the lay out of the city. I have been to the city many times and still enjoyed it very much. |

| When we started the tour I found Steve to be charming, witty and informed. He had witty comments and sort of teasing and bold.
At this point I was a little taken back I turned to see if my family was hearing the same thing, their astonished faces said it all.
They rest of the trip did not get better. He gave his political views, social commentary, and race relations hindered the trip. I found myself holding my tongue rather than enjoying the trip.
He was very informed however his views at time extraneous and inappropriate left me in a bad mood. At one let go and set him straight.The sentiment was felt on the bus as people made cracks at his "preaching".
I also noticed no one leaving a gratuity!
New York it a great place to visit and see! I love the city but not the tour.

| I highly recommend this tour - it is wonderful! I now know more about New York than our friends who have lived there for years! We were able to see just about everything we wanted to see on this tour. It was a great way to spend our day.
It's so much more than your typical tour - it's fun, it's informative, it's interesting, it's taking a day to experience New York. |

| 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! |
