Karen knows her stuff!

Karen is highly knowledgeable and very enthusiastic about the topic. On the day we toured, it was unfortunately just too cold for us to last more than an hour, however, both the grandmother and the 8 year old. I would enjoy trying again!

Karen provided us with an entertaining and informative day. It would be hard to top her enthusiasm and knowledge of Colonial New York.

We were looking to have a special day as we left Amsterdam on a bus trip with 3 bus loads from my fiance's office. They are the largest employer in Montgomery County where we live. Karen was interesting and personable. She really knows her stuff and linked it extremely well with our interests and personal knowledge as well. She included everyone in the group and kept it lively. THANK YOU!!!

We met our guide at City Hall Park entrance just as the directions described. She was excited and enthusiastic as we were. The walk as easy and the stories were great! You could tell that she knew her subject and we had done some research and we knew she knew her stuff. Our guide was very educational and funny, which made it very enjoyable, one of the best tours we've ever done. We are not in the greatest of shape, but this walk was not difficult by any means. I've already highly recommended it to some friends that well be in Manhatthan for the next week. Thank you!

A great way to see lower Manhattan.

Our guide was an enthusiastic, revolutionary-period history buff. She is very knowledgeable of NYC during this time period. The tour is accurately described in the web-site listing and more than met my small group's expectations. Don't be put off by the length of this tour (2.5 hours)! The pace and terrain covered are not difficult. Don't hesitate, book today!

It was my first trip to NYC and it seemed so vast and intimidating at first but Karen helped give it a focus and made it more easy for me to relate to it not only in terms of where things were located geographically but its rich history, and some determining factors of the characteristic of the people of NYC- their buoyancy, perserverance, and strength. I learned some historical trivia and many facts, saw pictures of NYC during the Rev. era and got to know a few others who seemed to love American history as much as I do. I'd recommend it to everyone!

Well-researched, entertaining tour.

A great way to spend a few hours in Manhattan! Karen, our tour guide, dished up so many interesting tidbits about the goings-on in the "town" that the time just flew by. It's amazing what bits and pieces are still present in today's lower Manhattan to tie the whole story together. Duane Reade is more than a drugstore chain!
