I found this tour fun and done in an untraditional
Sat, Aug 8  1:00 PM JosephWillia Female 50-59 Local Family Without Children
In school, I studied History because I had to. Nancy did a fantastic job putting together the Revolutionary war with the prominent names we are all familiar with but more importantly she told the untold history in an exciting story format with a cast of people I knew little or nothing about. Allot of surprises. If I had her as a professor, I would have changed my major. I can not say enough about Nancy and hoe much enthusiasm she has, and the excitement she brings. She is a great communicator and story teller. I was never bored and surprised at the thing I did not know and how interesting NY played during this time period. I would HIGHLY recommend, and in this economic environment it is a great way for all members of the family or visitors to NY spend a couple of fun hours!

Enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide

I am a middle school history teacher and thoroughly enjoyed our Revolutionary War walking tour. Our guide was very well prepared and knowledgeable. I learned so much about New York's role during the revolutionary period. My daughter and sister in law also commented on our guide's enthusiasm and ability to hold their attention despite the distractions of weather and general city commotion. Thanks so much for a wonderful experience.

History in the Big Appe

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.

Made history come alive!
Sat, Jul 18  1:00 PM julapp Female 40-49 Local Family With Children
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.

Civil War Tour
Wed, Jul 8  1:30 PM TDidonato Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Our guide was knowledgable and told us about New York's role in the Civil War as well as other information that came up as we were walking. It was well worth the money and the time.

The perfect guide
Mon, Jul 6  10:00 AM kpncamelot Male 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
We were two couples from Minnesota and had a great time. It's wonderful to walk the city with a guide who is bursting with knowledge--not just someone who knows the script. So we couldn't be more positive. Whether you love history or not, there was a lot there for you. My one suggestion: my legs aren't as good as the guides. Three hours without sitting is too much for me. With a little planning, she could find places for people on the tour to sit occasionally while she talks. Not to sit and waste time, just to sit as she talks. I found them for myself. But there where steps to sit on, benches to sit on, etc. She's so enthusiastic about what she describing, I don't think this crosses her mind. If she just went to each of the locations and looked around for a moment, there are places where people could sit as she talks. It was great. We'll recommend it to friends.

Not what I expected

The walking tour was more of a narrow history lecture, and less walking and pointing out actual historical information.

Passionate About History
Fri, Jul 3  1:00 PM Tsquared Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
It's such a joy to witness someone as passionate about history as Karen. Also, she is quite knowledgeable of all the various factors which lead to the War Between the States. This is most refreshing to hear as the current simplistic version equates South with bad and North with good. Her tour is quite a bit more invigorating than the usual two hours spent combing a museum.
