| My 13 year old daughter, my 10 year old son, and I found Karen to be most interesting. She is such a wealth of historical knowledge.... I learned a lot on the tour. I highly recommend it to anyone that likes history. | ||||||

| Despite the freezing weather, we could not pull ourselves away from the tour and walked for two and a half hours in the bitter wind. A real tribute to the guide | ||||||

| 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 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! | ||||||

American Revolution in New York tour excellent

| I and my wife and daughter visited New York City for a week in mid August. I was mildly interested in the American Revolution in New York tour, my wife more so. All of us were surprised by how much we enjoyed this activity. Our teacher was knowlegable, able to tell an interested story over a period of 2 hours, and skilled in knowing what facts in the story were salient, which were not. She was also extremely enthusiastic, clearly enjoying her task. The experience as a whole felt more like a string of interesting discoveries, less like a straightforward lecture. Her narrative was well conceived to match the order of buildings and streets we visited, but also shaped nicely into a broader beginning-middle-end narrative. THe experience overall has encouraged me and my wife to begin reading more about this subject. Truly, this was one of the most enjoyable parts of our New York trip, and we strongly recommend it to other visitors. | ||||||

| As a local resident, a short distance across the river, it was interesting to learn so much history about the Lower East Side. I cannot count the number of times I visited the area and new nothing about the history of the area! Also, on the tour, we were taken to little areas of the Lower East Side that I was not aware of. The tour it full of interesting information. The tour guide was a wealth of knowledge. I would recommended this tour for history buffs and local residents that are interested in learning about their neighborhood! | ||||||

| This was quite simply one of the best tours I've been on. The tour guide, was also the owner of the company, and was enormously well informed, and personally intrested in her subject. She was not just reading a script written by others. She spent a lot of the time talking about interesting people and events that are not that well known. This really made the tour come alive. | ||||||

Excellent Presentation!

| My family really enjoyed the Revolutionary War presentation. The historian was outstanding. In our opinion, the walking tour could be improved in the following ways: (1) Keep the discussion to 2 hours, more is not always better, (2) Help the audience understand the time line of events, jumping from event to event in a non- linear fashion was sometimes difficult to follow, (3) Teach both the macro and micro, the narrative is well told by laying out the big picture of the conflict and then personalizing it with entertaining stories about the individuals involved in the places that these event occurred.. These are mild criticisms as the walk was a lot of fun and the presenter really knows and loves her subject. Thank you!! | ||||||

| I was recommended to go on this tour by a friend in Oregon. He was so enthusiastic about the tour, that I brought my daughter and her friend with me. We learned so much history (that I wished I paid more attention to my history classes in school!) Karen (our guide) was charming, informative, and attentive to detail that it made it the most entertaining tour. She answered all of our questions and had pictures to back up the history as we went along on the tour. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting New York. Next time I'm going to go on the Civil War tour. | ||||||

| I was very pleased with the tour and especially our guide, she was very knowledgable and enthusiastic. She shared many wonderful stories that really captivated my interest. I would have liked to have been able to actually go into Frances Tavern and also spend some time in the museum where the first inauguration of our first president took place. Having lived in NYC for a long time I was still suprised by sights I had never seen. I would highly recommend this tour to chlidren also because no history book can explain this era like our guide did. | ||||||

Good Combination of Learning and Exercise!

| Coming from San Francisco, we just don't have the same kind of "old" as New York City, so we especially enjoyed finding out about the early days of Manhatten and our nation. The walk was thorough but not too strenuous. I liked being on the streets rather than just seeing things from a bus window. Our guide provided great insights and obviously knows her stuff. One thing that I would have appreciated was some pointing out of other sites that we passed along the way (the NY Stock Exchange, that bull sculpture, Ground Zero). Of course, I am sure it is hard to stick to the point of the Rev War with centuries of history in every block! All-in-all, the tour was good and I recommend it. Because of the tour, our 12 year old has a much better sense of how people were living in those days -- and what it meant to be an occupied land -- than he could ever get from a book. | ||||||
