Revolutionary Era Walking Tour of Lower Manhattan

The tour guide, Karen, was very knowledgeable and friendly. Although most of the sites of historical value no longer exist, the tour does an excellent job of identifying the location of the site, and describing the site and the surrounding area.

While a bit of an info overload for my 10 year old, my 13 year old recognized much of her recent Social Studies curriculum and really got into it. It was great to get a deeper understanding of our hometown's history and make conections to the significance of things we see every day. Karen was superb! She was friendly, professional and informative.

The tour was very informative and enjoyable.

This walk was full of great information about the Revolutionary War era in New York with lots of discussion about the interesting citizens during that time. We found it fascinating.

Exceeded our expectations! The guide was Very enthusiastic & Very knowledgeable. Very relaxed pace... We highly recommend this tour... especially for NY ers ... we're locals and no idea of the historic places and sights that we pass by on a regular basis... a new appreciation for Lower Manhattan! I'm getting tickets for my two daughters....

The guide was very good. She shared a lot of historical facts that were interesting. She had a good attitude and a friendly nature. I would highly recommend her tours to all of my family and friends. Thank you for the wonderful tour.

The stories and information brought a little more to the table than what we are taught in school. It is interesting to listen to how things have not changed politically or how little we have learned from our own history. It would be great if we had someone like Washington who only cared about the success of the country and not about his own ability to get elected. Someone who would be honest and not spend all his time telling us what he thinks we want to hear.

The tour guide from Patriot Tours was extremely good at what she did. She made history come alive for us as we walked among the many sites NYC has from the Revolutionary War. It was a cold and rainy day in June so she also tried to spend as much time as possible inside buildings (such as Saint Paul's Cathedral) to allow us to warm up between jaunts. I would whole-heartedly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see a side of New York City you won't get from a tour bus.

My wife and I booked this tour and are glad we did! Karen is a wonderful guide and in very short order you realize she REALLY knows her history! She took the time to answer any questions and made us feel as if we'd been friends for years. Anyone interested in historical New York must take this tour!

This was one of the best tours I have been on. The guide was very knowledgeable and made you feel like you were there during the time period. Even history buffs will learn something new. The city has a fascinating history and the guide loves the city now and then. I highly recommend this to everyone!
