| We were first time visitors to New York City and feel we received a fabulous overview of the city from Stephen Duer, our tour guide. Stephen is exceptionally knowledgeable of New York City and enthusiastically shared this with us. We arrived with no concept of New York and left knowing uptown from downtown, the fashion district from wall street, soho from greenwich village, Manhattan from the Bronx, and how all this fits together. It was a great tour. Well done, Stephen. |

| The tour was excellent. It more than adequately covered the areas, culture, and history of New York. Our guide, Steve, was knowledgeable, entertaining, and courteous. I would recommend this tour to everyone, whether the trip to New York is your first or fifth. The children also liked the tour. Forget the red bus or any bus tours. This is THE tour. We highly recommend it. |

| Tour could be rated as 7 in a scale 1 to 10. The guide was good, but the group didn´t connect, so it was not that fun. |

| I can honestly say that this is the best tour that I've ever taken.
In fact, this is the 2nd time in the last year that I've been on it, and I brought my wife's parents because it was so good. They raved about it for the last week.
The enthusiasm and quality of the tour is unparalelled. |

| After reading about Manhattan Tours on Tripadvisor and looking at their website I decided to take the morning tour of Midtown / Downtown. My wife and I opted to be picked up at the Waldorf Astoria (as we were staying close by) after initially not knowing which entrance to be picked up at, but thanks to the receptionist at Waldorf who phoned the tour operator for me, we were picked up by Steve at the main entrance.
My wife, myself and 3 others were the only people on the tour so we were in a minivan which added to the experience and Steve was very friendly and chatty for 8.30 in the morning. He took us via main avenues and side streets to areas not normally visited but also took in the main attractions with lots of facts and local knowledge about New York’s different areas and history. He answered (nearly) any question we asked even if it had nothing to do with the area. Overall a great way to see New York and helped us decide what attractions to visit by ourselves and where to eat and shop. This tour was great for us but may not suit everyone who might want to spend a little longer at each attraction. One last thing as for the lunch stop – never tried Pastrami and Rye but all I can say is Yes, Yes, Ohh ,Yes!! Take the tour and find out.
