Very enthusiastic tour guide
Fri, Feb 29, 08   1:15 PM rmanges Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
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.

From the heart
Tue, Feb 19, 08   1:00 PM brocine Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
The sights were awe-inspiring from City Hall area to the NYSE and the site of Washington's first inaugural to Bowling Green and Trinity Church on the lip of Ground Zero, but the guide made the tour extra special. She was knowledgable and seemed personally involved in and by the history.

It was great! I thoroughly enjoyed our tour.

We went on a cold December morning, but the three hour tour seemed to go by too quickly, that's how enjoyable it was. We learned so much. Our guide was super-knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and very friendly. I look forward to taking tours from her again when i'm back in NYC. tom - Atlanta

Terrific experience
Sat, Dec 8, 07   1:00 PM johnlawrie Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
My wife and I decided to visit Manhattan and our twenty-something daughter who lives there for the day. On the spur of the moment we decided to take the walking tour which we found on line. We couldn't have been more impressed and pleased with the tour. Our guide, Karen, was incredibly well informed and informative about the revolutionary history of NYC. We all had a great time.

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.

Brings the human element to history

The tour guide's enthusiasm and her ability to tell the story of the people of Revolutionary War New York are the things that make this tour stand out.

Terrific Tour Guide

Really interesting tour with terrific guide. My children (22,19 and 17) all enjoyed it as well. I'd recommend it to anyone whether you were interested in history or not.

Karen's tours are brilliant!
Wed, Oct 31, 07   1:15 PM JPSmith Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
Last year I took Patriot Tours' Revolutionary War Tour and loved it. Last week I took the Civil War Era Tour and it was great too. Karen really knows her stuff. The tour was full of entertaining anecdotes and she painted a picture of 19th century New York that made Lower Manhattan come alive for me. As far as I am concerned, this is a must-do for both travellers and New Yorkers alike. I can't wait for Karen to come up with her next tour.

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!

excellent, informative, enthusiastic,punctual, fun
Tue, Oct 30, 07   1:00 PM HPM1776 Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
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.
Fri, Oct 26, 07   10:00 AM marsposa Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
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!

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!

Very Informative
Thu, Sep 20, 07   1:00 PM MWinkler Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Unspecified
My husband and I were the only people who showed up for the walk. It was in the middle of the week in the off-season, but our tour went on as scheduled and we were treated to a "private" tour. I have been recommending the tour to everyone who is interested because it was enjoyable and informative. Most people here on the West Coast do not know about New York's Revolutionary Era history. And, the tour was a great way to orientate yourself to New York City. Highly recommended!

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.
