I highly recommend this tour. Our guide was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable, and both my father and I got a great deal of interesting information out of it! It was very enjoyable.

Knowledgeable and Well Presented

I had my step-father in town, who is interested in history and likes a walk. Having similar interests myself, I thought the Revolutionary Era Walking Tour would fit the bill. I've taken tours in other towns, for similar reasons - it's a good way to get a different view than most guide books could or would give you. So much, however, depends on the person presenting the tour - their knowledge and enthusiasm. I was both pleasantly surprised and very happy with the tour, the depth of knowledge and ability and willingness to present the information that was consistently displayed. I'd recommend this to anyone interested - and plan on taking another tour offered, such as the Civil War Era tour - when the time presents itself.

I thoroughly enjoyed this tour, and saw much more of lower manhatten than I ever had before. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and shared the information in a very enthusiastic and amiable manner.

Karen's tour was absolutely fascinating. Not once was she dry and stodgy, with a recitation of dates and facts. Rather she focused on the personal stories and anecdotes. The tour was long -- more than two and a half hours -- and we weren't bored for one minute. Just be absolutely sure to wear comfortable shoes!

Lovely tour guide but tour not really designed for international tourists who are not fully informed on the history of the American Revolution. The tour guide was very knowledgeable on the topic but we couldn't follow some of the details (and time lines) as we only knew a small amount on the topic and the tour guide assumed we knew a lot more. As we were the only two on the tour we thought it could be tailored to us as international tourists but unfortunately it wasn't.

A great tour for history buffs

This walking tour of lower Manhattan is rich with stories and details about the area's Revolutionary history. The guide brings to life many of the people and events that were so central to the birth of our country. The walk is well-researched and presented by a guide who clearly loves what she does.

I definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting NYC. I enjoyed 100% of the tour and learned so much! I've been on great walking tours in other cities like London, but this was by far the best of its kind. I look forward to your Civil War tour next time I'm in the City. Thanks again, Yoni N., Rehovot, Israel.

Very informative and enjoyable

I am a big fan of American history, particularly around the revoluntionary period. I learned so many new facts on this trip and saw many interesting things. The tour guide was insightful, passionate and welcomed our questions. She did a great job plotting out the stops on our tour and the visuals she showed the group also added to the tour. Anyone interested in New York's history and/or the history of the founding of our country - this is a must do.

Our guide was excellent- she really made the tour enjoyable. It was facinating to learn the role that NYC played in the revolutionary war period. This tour was my favorite part of our recent trip to NYC. I highly recommend it.

Nice but long
Sat, Jul 5, 08   1:00 PM Sandrine76 Female 30-39 Local Individual
My husband and I enjoy anything that has to do with history. We took a revoluntionary tour in NYC. The tour was 2 1/2 hours long.Our guide was very knowledgeable and knew a great deal. The only bad thing was that the tour was too long...Too many stories so it was confusing at times and to much standing still in "spots were things were". I guess we were expecting more walking and showing of older bulidings or areas where things took place and not enough tidbits and little things that only a guide would know. You know fun facts. I would still use this comapny for future tours, no doubt. I just feel this one was not the best if had been on.

Our tour guide was well informed. She gave us a feel for the time period and what was going in New York and how New York fit in with what was going on in other colonies. She gave us information starting with the Dutch and the turn over to British. She also told of us stories of individuals, the roles they played and how they impacted the rest of the colonies. She also gave us suggestions on where we could go for more information and also suggested some of the places where we could go back and spend more time. We enjoyed this tour so much we look forward to go on the Civil War Tour.

No two ways about it: Karen was a fantastic guide. It was three hours VERY well spent. I've sung the praises of this tour to everyone who asked about our trip to NYC.
