Informative & Personal Manhattan Tour

| We found & selected this tour by searching the enternet for personal tours of NYC. Their home page was informative and easy to understand. Our tour was on Aug 29th and with a small group, having Stephen Duer as our guide. The tour was fantastic. Stephen provided enormous amounts of information about His city. He is proud of NYC and you can truly pick up on his home town experience. The tour lasted approximately 6 hours having photo time, walking time and eating lunch at a true historic NYC deli, "Katz". I will recommend this tour to all of my friends as I believe it to be well worth the charge of approximately $100. per person. | ||||||

The King of New York tour is the pips!

| Touring with the King of New York (Steve) is like traveling with an old friend who is showing you around his hometown. You travel on a small bus so your tour group is quite small (no larger than 26 people I believe). Steve shows you the real New York and tells you the history of that lovely city. This isn't one of those generic tours where you're craning your neck trying to see the site the tour guide is describing as your bus passes it, and where you're herded on and off the bus at the tourist stops. While in New York in August of 2006, we also took the NYC Party Tour, and it was one of those hectic drive past as many sites as possible tours. We didn't bother with the Hop on and Hop Off tour based on the bored looks we noticed on the faces of that tour's passengers. If you are interested in learning about New York City as well as seeing the sites, then I recommed that you take the Marvelous Manhattan Tour with the King of New York. He costs a little more, but the extra expense is well worth it. | ||||||

The One and Only Tour of NYC

| My boys and I have traveled extensively and always search for a tip top tour of each destination prior to venturing out on our own. This tour is by far the best I have ever had in any city, domestic or abroad. I have been visiting NYC for many years and each time I bring someone along that has not been to NYC, I take them on this tour. I have been on this tour 5 times in a period of 10 years. Each time Steven makes it a joy. If you really want to learn about NYC, be entertained, and have a true first class guide, this is the only route to take. I wouldn't even bother with another tour of NYC unless I could take Steven's. I wish he could franchise out his expertise to other major cities! EXCELLENT Linda Walsworth Kansas City | ||||||

| Steve, the King, did a tremendous job. He loves Manhattan and shares his feelings openly. He's full of energy, personable, and makes sure he knows the name of each of his guests. We enjoyed the lunch at Katz deli, his feelings about 911, and all the great sites. Our group was Mom and Dad and our 30 year old daughter (actress/guide who is often hard to please when it comes to tours & entertainment). She thought everything on the tour was great and enjoyed Steve's candid approach. | ||||||

| We went on this tour with our three children, ages 11 through 15 and everyone enjoyed it. I thought Steve did an excellent job of introducing us to Manhatten and giving us a good working knowledge of how to get around and what makes the city special. I felt we got a good overview of the city. He was entertaining and held everyone's interest. I would recommend this tour to anyone. | ||||||

| We thoroughly enjoyed the Royal Bus Tour of NYC. When we first arrived in Manhattan my initial thought was why would anyone want to live here? I was also a little afraid. After the tour I felt totally comfortable and ready to explore the city at my own pace. Steven Duer is exceptionally knowledgable about NYC and has a wonderul sense of humor. He made learning about the city entertaining and fun. He was also very patient with my elderly parents who were much slower than everyone else on the tour. (Thank you Steven.) This tour is a little more expensive than some but well worth it. I would recommend this tour to anyone who really wants to learn about the city and not just visit tourist hot spots. | ||||||

| The tour was well done, kept very much on schedule without being rushed and pushed. We were given a lot of history and interesting information about New York City that we would not have found any other way. | ||||||

Entertaining and Informative way to see Manhattan
|

| From start to finish of this tour, we were educated, informed and at the same time, entertained. Steve reminded us of Jim Carrey, but with a wealth of information on NYC at his fingertips. We covered most of the main sites on Manhattan Island and had a great lunch stop at Katz's Deli ( of "When Harry Met Sally" fame). From the moment Steve greeted me by name until we said goodbye, this was probably the best tour of this sort I have been on- in ANY city. From being first time visitors to the city, I now know the difference between a neighbourhood and a district, why the fence around Bowling Green is uneven, where to look for the "dirty patch" in Grand Central and which president took his oath on Wall Street. By the end of the tour, I felt I was beginning to have a real feel for Manhattan. Highly Recommended | ||||||

Wonderful Experience

| Steve, the tour guide was extremely personable and knowledgeable. I will recommend anyone who takes this tour to ask for Steve. He made the city come alive for us and I believe I can find my way anywhere, thanks to him. To take a tour with any one else is a great loss. It was well worth the money. | ||||||

a brilliant way to start a trip to NY city

| We were recommended to take this tour by friends who had done it and we were not disappointed. This was our first trip to NY and the tour was a perfect way to see the main sights and get a good feel for the city. Steve's depth of knowledge, his enthusiasm, his humour and the clarity of his delivery make him an ideal guide. The bus was comfortable and the duration of the tour just right. I and my partner have done quite a few city tours and this was far and away the best we have ever done. Absolutely brilliant and thank you so much. | ||||||

| We took this trip last week and it was WONDERFUL! We had taken a similar tour of NYC several years ago and this one is far more comprehensive and informative. Steve is excellent as a guide. He made the sights and places so interesting. He is so dynamic and entertaining as he shares his knowledge and love of New York City. The tour was inclusive of many of the places we wanted to see. We did not have to spend time figuring out where and how to get to places (and probably getting lost) and thus had time to do other exciting things. The day passed too quickly! You get what you pay for and this tour is worth the price you pay! If you are wanting a tour this is the one to choose! | ||||||

| Great tour - small group which allowed easy access to the guide for questions and able to hear the answers. Very informative and interesting. A better appreciation of New York after the tour. The teenagers even enjoyed it, so it had to be good. | ||||||

Best Tour in NYC
|

| Mon, May 29, 06 9:15 AM | jmaxwell | Male | 40-49 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Family With Children | |
| I would recommend this tour for anyone. My wife and I brought our 2 kids (ages 6 and 9) to NYC and they loved the tour. Steve is very personable and really wants his customers to enjoy the city and learn. The best thing about this tour is the small size; only 11 or 12 of us on the tour. Probably the price weeds out a lot of people; I believe we paid $100 per ticket for each adult and about $70 for each kid. Believe me, it's worth every penny. You can ask questions at any time; this is much better than the large tour buses you see rolling thru the city. It's like having your own personal tour guide. Steve is a wealth of knowledge about New York. We took the all day tour; lasts from 9:30 to 3:30. | ||||||
