I was amazed at what part NY played in the Revolutionary War. Our guide was very knowledgable about the history.

The Best Tour of our Trip!
Tue, Oct 9, 07   1:00 PM ARK135 Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Our guide, Karen, made this tour our favorite of the week! She was very knowledgeable and willing to answer our questions. We had no problem hearing or understanding her (a problem we encountered on other tours). She was very friendly and accommodating as well, allowing us to take pictures as we went along. She even managed to make history interesting for the member of the group who usually is not interested in history. Karen took us to places we would have found difficult to find on our own, so we felt the minimal fee was money well spent. We are already planning to include another tour from this company on our next trip to New York City. Thank you, Karen, for a great afternoon!

Interesting historical accounts in real settings
Fri, Oct 5, 07   10:00 AM Garycardin Male 40-49 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Enthusiastic guide, small group, good pace with lots of fascinating insights and information. Our group of 3 US citizens and 4 UK tourists made the subject matter of the tour even more interesting. Plenty of time for questions and a very personalised experience throughout. Would certainly recommend Partriot Tours to domestic and international visitors alike.

Karen did such a great job passing on her vast knowledge of revolutionary war New York history in an interesting and light hearted way that the time just flew by. I love history and this was a great treat for me and my friends. I highly recommend this tour to anyone of any age.

This was our second tour with Karen and it was, once again, fantastic. We are anxiously awaiting news of a a third historic tour on New York.

Interesting, fun and informative
Thu, Jul 5, 07   1:00 PM meglover Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The Revolutionary Era tour was of personal interest because of my own long-ago family ties to the city of that era, but, even beyond that, the narrative was informative, told with humor and illustrated with documents and newspapers from the Revolutionary era. The stroll through lower Manhattan took in places familiar to many - Trinity and St. Paul's Churches, the Stock Exchange - and places I'd likely not learn about on my own - the old Bowling Green, sites of early businesses and homesteads, and the narrow streets (reminiscent of old London) and original shorelines of the lower isalnd. It's good to know and remember the part that the community and landscape of New York City played in the confusing and pivotal times surrounding the Revolution.

Much more to NYC than meets the eye
Mon, May 28, 07   1:15 PM sagesystems Male 30-39 Local Group of Friends
It was Memorial Day and myself and some friends thought a historical tour would be a great way to learn more about New York City. We live here but we knew that there is so much history that we pass by every day without knowing any better. We hoped the tour would enlighten us and we were not disappointed; it easily surpassed our expectations. The reason was our excellent tour guide, Karen, who did a great job of not only teaching us some of the history of the city, but did it in a way that kept our interest throughout the entire tour. This was largely due to her style of mixing in stories alongside pointing our various buildings and landmarks. I only wish my history classes had been run like this. I probably would have learned a lot more back then if they had.

The NYC Patriot Revolutionary War Tour
Wed, May 23, 07   10:00 AM RonaldStitt Male 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Wow! Our guide really knew her "stuff". She was friendly and took a lot of time to give us a really wonderful tour. Her insight and knowledge of the sites and related material on the tour made a very informative and fun time for us all. We live in a very historical part of Northwest Pennsylvania near Lake Erie and it was nice to get the "East Coast" point of view about this important time in our nation's history. BRAVO!!

Opinion of seven delighted women

Seven good friends were in absolute agreement that the tour was the best. Karen gave us such a good understanding of what went on in New York before and during the Revloutionary War. We all came away in awe of the courage of the people of New York and the founding fathers.

Sat, Mar 3, 07   1:00 PM Bontempo Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
I had fun. I learned many interesting things about NY and the revolutionary war. I got some exercise. The tour guide was enthusiastic, her fund of information was extensive. Her presentation was perfectly enjoyable. It was a great way to spend an afternoon, and I learned something besides. This tour guide is a gem.

Our guide, Karen, really knew her stuff and managed to keep even my 13 year old interested. I highly recommend this to anyone, local or visitor, who would like to gain a lot of knowledge about this great city. Andrew

Experience the "mind-set" of our patriots
Wed, Dec 27, 06   1:15 PM Bichon Female 40-49 Local Group of Friends
A walking tour....definitely a different concept of touring this illustrious island called Manhattan, but vital in order to experience the passion, commitment, and dedication of those who courageously came before us. While listening to the comprehensive, as well as descriptive explanation of a multitude of historic events, you are literally transported into this significant period of time. As an American, more now than ever, it is paramount for each of us to understand the values, mission and determination of our previous settlers. Their creativity, selflessness and passion is reflected and communicated by the talent of this passionate American guide. This is a must for those of you who care about this nation and understand that it is those who came before us that have generously bestowed upon us what we have inherited today. This powerful tour gives this generous gift to each of you.

Excellent in every respect
Sat, Dec 16, 06   1:00 PM mpoole Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The tour owner /guide was pleasant, answered any and all questions and provided us with an enjoyable tour. She was very knowledgeable as she talked about not only the events of the Revolution as they were connected to New York, but also shared tidbits about some of the people involved in the historical events. I think we will take her Civil War tour in the future

We all loved the tour. It was extremely insightful and entertaining. I'd recommend it to anyone interesting (even a little bit) in NYC history. It is definitely not just for history buffs.
