One of the Best

| This tour was the best tour we had while on vacation in New York. It provided us with history that is sometimes glossed over or left out in history books. All we hear about is how Boston and Philadelphia played an important role in the revolution, but I had no idea the impact that New York had. Our tour guide was very knowledgable and provided an excellent experience. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone. | ||||||

| We were very happy with the tour. Our guide provided much historical information and was truly excited about the topic which got us even more interested. Learned a lot about lower Manhattan and politics related to the Civil War that we never knew before. | ||||||

| It was a very warm afternoon in Manhattan but my husband and I didn't let that interfere with this tour. He's a history buff; I'm a history novice. Our tourguide, Karen, was phenomenal! It was obvious she had done a lot of research of that era and New York City. She had so many stories and pictures and her passion for the history was evident in the tour she conducted. I was riveted! We had a great group of 14 people from all over and yes, it was hot, but there are sidewalk stands around the area where you can purchase water. We walked from City Hall down to Battery Park and she gave us so much fascinating information about the area, the buildings, the history. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys walking the city (it was not physically challenging, a nice pace) and even if you think you are not a history buff, you will become one because of this tour. It was fantastic! And well worth the price! It was hard to believe that over two hours had passed because of how interesting Karen made this tour. Don't pass this up! | ||||||

| I really enjoyed the recent tour I took of Revolutionary New York. The tour guide, Karen, was a bevy of knowledge and enthusiasm. Very well informed and proud to be an American and a New-Yorker. I would recommend this tour to everyone. Laura E. Toronto, Canada | ||||||

| I took my 16 yr old son on this tour-it is fabulous! We felt like we were really there during the revolution-I really have not spent a lot of time downtown and even though I am a native NYer, I did not know of all the history! I highly recommend this tour, as the tour guide is AWESOME! : entertaining, knowledgeable, and has quite obviously done the research! so much so that it was really easy to imagine and be there during the Revolution-wish my history teachers were that good when I was in school. Great stories-the time went by quicker than I would have liked-my son and I plan to take the Civil War tour next! Enjoy! | ||||||

| This is a fantastic tour -- it allowed us to learn historical information that we had never known before. Our tour guide was unbelievably educated about the topic and has trained herself so thoroughly. Her antecdotes made the Revolutionary era come alive to us. Perfect group size with 9 guests. We would highly recommend this tour and would definitely use Patriot Tours again. | ||||||

| This is my second time taking this tour, and I enjoyed it as much as the first. The guide is quite learned and so informative without losing your interest. If you like American history and the part NYC played in it, then you will really enjoy this tour. | ||||||

| Pleasant and informative tour led by a polite, prepared, and knowledgable guide. I was part of a small group, which allowed for frequent interaction between attendees and guide. A nice mix of topics were dicussed including street life, architecture, landfill history, local biographies, treatment of prisoners, and escape tactics from Brooklyn Heights. All my questions and comments were addressed quite satisfactorily. Enthusiastically recommended! | ||||||

| I was very encouraged when I read that there was so much history in New York, and realized that there was much I did not know. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and energetic, and organized her tour as more of a "storytelling" experieince. Which made it interesting, easy to follow and understand. Walking through the streets as she shared the sights and stories of that time in history helped you visualize what it was like back then and how important the events were to forming the country. I was fortunate in the fact that there were only 2 of us on the group that day, so it was very personalized. Our tour guide encouraged questions, and keep us going at a comfortable pace. The time just saled by. Also, our guide spent some time at the end of our tour giving us some tips and suggestions that we might enjoy while in the city, which was very kind. Overall, I would recommend this tour....history buff or not. It is interesting to see NY through the "Revolutionary Years", because it gives you a more vast perspective and view of the city which helps you appreciate it's contribution and how it helped shape our nation. | ||||||

| We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The guide, Karen, was wonderful and extremely knowledgeable. She kept my interest as well as that of my children, ages 10 and 12, throughout the 2 1/2 plus hours tour. Not only did we learn a lot, but we saw things we had never seen or noticed before. All of Manhattan, past and present, is more meaningful to us now. Many thanks for an interesting, educational and fun day. | ||||||

| This is a terrific tour mainly because of the energy and enthusiasm of the tour guide. She is engaged, did a lot or work to get some of the visual aids, and is ready to answer questions. Admittedly many of the original structures are long gone, but the visual aids help. Also sites such as the Cooper Union are too far uptown to be part of the tour. | ||||||
