Fantastic way to see N.Y. from a real New Yorker!

| Steven the tour guide is great! The tour bus was comfortable, he answered all our questions and he's a character too. This was our first trip to N. Y. and it was great to get on and off the bus with the tour guide so that he can give us the history while we were in Grand Central station or in the Northern part of Central park (which was gorgeous in November). He's a New Yorker that has been running tours for 18 years so he knows his stuff. This is the personal attention we wanted compared to the sitting on the top of a bus getting sunburned partially listening to an announcer on the intercom. I will definitely come back to New York as soon as I can and I enthusiastically recomemend this tour! | ||||||

| Steve is a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable, witty, personable. We went all over the city, saw most of the major landmarks and had a truly enjoyable day. My husband and I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting NYC. | ||||||

| This was my third time to take this tour. I recommend it to everyone going to NYC. Since this was my daughter's first trip to NYC, we took the tour. It is a small group that allows for interaction between the tourists and the tour guide. We got great info that helped us understand the area better and enhanced the whole trip. It is planned with your comfort in mind and covers the best points of Manhattan. It is lengthy but worth the time spent. | ||||||

| We enjoyed the tour with the King of NYC. He was interesting and knowledgeable about the city, culture, history, and local flare. We learned alot and appreciated his attitiude and professionalism. We felt like he loves the city and the people who visit there. Steve helped us to have a better understanding of the city, its people, and how to get around town. Thanks we will do it again. | ||||||

| The half day tour gave u a real insight into the basics of new york. It enabled us to get our barings, understand how lots of things work and to get a look at a lot of teh major sights. The rest of our trip was far more enjoyable having done this tour. I was with my 16year old dauughter and her friend and it was the first trip for all of us. The tour was totally appropriate for all. We would definately book again and recomend to others. | ||||||

| We chose to do the Royal Tour and learned so much more about the City than we ever knew we needed to know! It was extremely informative, interesting, and puts things in perspective. Stephen is a walking history book and his love for the City shines! His buses are so much nicer and more comfortable than are the other over-crowded tour buses. We appreciated getting to see so many things we would not have been able to do ourselves since we had only a few days there. This is a great intro to the City; then you can choose to go back for longer visits at each of your favorite places since there's not enough time on the tour to stop at each place. It's also extremely courteous that we were called by our names all day. My family and I highly recommend this tour. | ||||||

| We all really enjoyed the tour. This tour should be something you do early in your trip to Manhatton because it helped with getting around the city for the rest of our trip. I would highly recommend it. | ||||||

High Energy NYC Tour -- The Best!!

| I've been on a variety of tours throughout my life, but rarely have I been on a tour that left me with such a "feeling" for the area as this one did. Rather than just a series of facts and figures, Stephen gave us the real flavor of New York. He described the people in places in such a way that you could really imagine what it would be like living there. In addition, rather than stopping for lunch at a sterile "Wendy's-type environment", he took us to a real New York deli -- Katz's -- and we ate with the locals. Stephen's energy level was amazing. I really appreciated the way he "told it like it is" instead of simply spouting off tired, politically safe facts. The tour was a great overview of New York. The next step would be if you could offer some specialized tours where maybe you just see two or three places in more detail. This was perfect for my first visit though. For those people who want a traditional non-emotional "to the left you see the Empire State Bldg." kind of tour, this may not be for you. But if you want a high energy in your face tour that will leave you with a real taste of New York, then i highly recommend it. | ||||||

| Our tour guide (Steve) was very knowledgeable. He was quite humerous, and held our interest by involving the entire group. We saw quite alot of the city and had the right amount of stops. The bus we were travelling in was very comfortable. Once again a great job. We will not hesitate to recommend this tour to our friends and family. | ||||||

| Living in NJ and only 13 miles from the city, we have come to the city many times and visited individual sites but never took a tour. This tour was recommended by a friend who enjoyed it. We have taken tours of other cities and decided to try it. We found the tour entertaining and informative. Steve, the owner and tour director, is personable and knowledgeable. We have already recommended it to family and friends. A group of friends who regularly exchange Xmas gifts have decided to take this tour together in lieu of shopping for each other. Thanks, Steve. Nice Job! | ||||||

| We were hoping that this tour would form a solid foundation for our learning about New York and its people; and that is exactly what we got. We were a little concerned that a day of listening to our guide could become a bit wearing at some stage, but we needn't have been concerned because Stephen is a master communicator who could teach a few useful tricks to teachers in schools who complain that their students do not learn; Stephen obviously knows that it's no good giving information unless it is enjoyable, varied in its content and delivery, and pitched in ways that suit the different personalities that make up his audience. Having said the above, if the information had no added value over and above what is generally known, then the whole experience would have been merely enjoyable but not exceptional. However Stephen seems to have a rare insight into quite a few subtle nuances which we feel gave us an exceptional insight about this extraordinary city. Probably, for us, the most impressive thing about Stephen is that he appears to really care that his audience learns about the real New York. We had alot of fun, alot of learning, and are still amazed at the fact that he could hold our attention throughout the whole day. He made an extra effort to ensure that his customers were comfortable with the content of the tour. | ||||||
