Tour well worth it.
Tue, Sep 23, 08   9:00 AM missymoo Female 50-59 International Tourist(s) Individual
The tour was well worth it for me travelling on my own to get my bearings, & to give me an overall 'picture' of New York City. It enabled me to feel more confident in venturing out on my own to more places. Good to meet others & the guide (Steve) was informative - a wealth of valuable knowledge.

This tour is a good introduction to the city. It helps you get your bearings and gives you the opportunity to decide what is of interest to you. Then you can go back and explore these areas in depth. Our guide, Steve, gave good advice so we could get to Ellis Island on our own. The deli stop for lunch was great! We were thankful for Steve's information beforehand on how the tickets and lines worked. We followed his suggestions on what to order and had a great lunch and experience. The morning went very quickly.

The best city tour I have ever done
Sat, Sep 20, 08   9:00 AM Lynda60 Female 60-69 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Fantastic tour guide - excellent knowledge and a brilliant communicator. He definitely added to our enjoyment of the tour. A perfect itinerary. We were only in NY for three days so couldn't possibly see everything. This tour gave us a flavour of Manhatten and enabled us to plan the rest of our stay. As Londoners we felt we had a real flavour of NY. I have recommended this tour to everyone I know. Our stay in NY would definitely not have been as fantastic.

Marvelous Manhatten Tour Is All That !!
Fri, Sep 19, 08   9:00 AM vickylee Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
We entered the very clean, comfortable bus and were greeted by our wonderful tour host Steve. Steve made all of us feel like we were all old friends out for a day of informative and entertaining sightseeing. We learned so very much about the history of New York and all the inside stories were wonderful. We would recommend this tour to all who want a relaxing day of seeing the spots that are important and learning the history and secrets of New York.

I TOOK THE HALF DAY MARVALOUS MANHATTEN TOUR FOUR YEARS AGO AND LOOKED FORWARD TO SHARING THE FULL DAY TOUR WITH MY SISTER AND HER HUSBAND. I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED AND NEITHER WERE THEY. MY DAUGHTER LIVED IN PA. AND TOOK THE TOUR SEVERAL TIMES WITH HER MANY VISITERS. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT AS A "MUST DO" FOR ANYONE VISITING MANHATTEN FOR THE FIRST TIME

Another great tour!!!!!!
Thu, Sep 4, 08   9:00 AM haylee913 Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
This is the 3rd time I have been on this tour and I have recommended it to many others going to New York City. It was great and I again learned new and interesting facts about the city! Steve is a hoot and makes the day very enjoyable. My friends and I really appreciate the fact that he is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor! He took us to so many beautiful places and the lunch at Katz' Deli was perfect. I feel sorry for the people on the double decker busses listening to the guide on a microphone, Steve is so personable. It's great that he makes a point to know everyone's name. I just can't say enough about this trip! If we get to NYC again we will definitely take the tour again!! Steve, you are wonderful!! (Don't forget George, he is a great driver!)

We Highly Recommend This Fantastic Tour of NYC
Sun, Aug 31, 08   9:00 AM Saurastri Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I was born and raised in New York and moved to the West Coast when I was 26. I thought I knew everything there was to know about this great City. How wrong I was. My husband, a native of India and my two cousins, native New Yorkers who now live in Queens and Long Island loved the tour as well. Our tour guide Steve was funny, helpful and very informed about each of the areas that we toured. We chose to take the half day tour of mid-town and downtown Manhattan but next time we are back in the City we want to take the remainder of the tour which goes uptown. It was such a wonderful experience to re-discover the City of my younger years. Thank you Steve for a very rewarding adventure. Susan and Pan Saurastri Fountain Valley, California

As a native New Yorker enjoying the tour with family from out of town I found the tour to be highly informative. I was made aware of so many interesting facts related to the history of New York which I had never known and certainly would consider another tour if the opportunity presented.

It was one of the highlights of New York
Fri, Aug 29, 08   9:00 AM JuneJohnson Female 70+ Domestic Tourist(s) Other
We took other tours in NY too and we were very pleased with the tour and the tour guide. The driver for the tour was very good too. The guide was able to answer our questions very well and we feel as if we got a very good tour for our money. I would encourage any tourist to the city to take this tour.

A Truly Marvelous Tour of Manhattan
Thu, Aug 28, 08   9:00 AM Burtonduo Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
On this tour we saw everything we wanted and so much more! The route is very well thought out with just the right amount of opportunities to get out and step foot. We learned a lot - all the facts and the little insider secrets.

A MUST DO on your first full day in Manhattan!
Thu, Aug 28, 08   9:00 AM Bonney53 Female 50-59 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I could not say enough about this tour. If you have never experienced New York before, as my sisters and I had not, be sure to experience this Bus Tour. We chose the 7 hour tour, and it was worth EVERY cent, and more. Steve, our tour guide, taught us more about New York than even our nephew knows, WHO LIVES IN NEW JERSEY! We left New York with a huge desire to learn even more: Burroughs (5 in total), how to pronounce Houston properly, the TRUE meanings of Uptown, Midtown, Downtown and Crosstown, there are only 2 homes in Manhattan (wow!!!), the cost of renting in Manhattan (ridiculous!) etc. etc. etc. Steve made it informative and entertaining, and the fact that he is 'easy on the eyes' did not hurt one bit. He made navigating through New York for the next 6 days a real treat, rather than a stressful adventure, as it is to many. Pass all other Bus tours by, and jump on this one. My only complaint would be where we had lunch. We were looking forward to experiencing Katz Deli, where that memorable scene from "When Harry Met Sally' was filmed, however it was so stressful and frantic, and those working there very abrupt and impatient, it really dampened our previously high spirits. The situation actually brought my sister to tears. Because of the line-ups both to order and to pay, I actually delayed the bus leaving by 10 minutes, for which I felt very bad about. I will admit though that that was absolutely the best Pastrami sandwich I have ever tasted! Just be prepared to be treated like a number, not a person when you get there. Other than that, do NOT miss this tour - fantastic job Steve! Thank you, on behalf of my two sisters and I, from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada - remember ('I'm sure that she is NICE"). : )

good route, but too opinionated
Thu, Aug 28, 08   9:00 AM lmacquisten Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
I liked the areas which were covered, but our guide spent too much time with his opinions on everything. More facts regarding the city & the specific areas we were touring would have been better.
