| 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. | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||

| This walk was full of great information about the Revolutionary War era in New York with lots of discussion about the interesting citizens during that time. We found it fascinating. | ||||||

The perfect guide

| 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. | ||||||

Passionate About History

| 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. | ||||||

| Since it was just two of us on this tour, our guide was most amenable to being flexible and varying the regular tour of the area to incorporate interesting architecture which was our particular interest. The guide was able to answer in-depth questions posed by us. She had a relaxed and friendly manner. The pace of the tour was appropriate to our ages and we had time to take photos along the route. | ||||||

| I could not believe how much History that our tour guide Karen knew. I advise every one who goes to New York to take this tour. I am an American History teacher and I was amazed at how much I learned. | ||||||

| I really enjoyed the Revolutionary Era tour; the Civil War era tour didn't disappoint either. Always friendly and open to questions, she does a great job of sharing interesting tidbits and little known historical facts that tie in with familiar stories/happenings in history. I enjoyed myself and learned a lot. | ||||||

| This is a great tour for locals and tourists. Karen is extremely knowledgeable about the era and history of NYC in general! This tour is best suited for UK and US tourists or NYC locals since the tour traces US revolutionary history through lower Manhattan. I really enjoyed the tour--and although I'm American my English husband and friend enjoyed it immensely as well. | ||||||

| We were all very interested in participating in this activity but Karen made it very interesting and showed so much enthusiasm that she made us enjoy it even more than we anticipated. We now want to do her other tours as well; but perhaps will do those in warmer weather. I highly recommend that you take one or all of her tours. | ||||||

| Karen knows her subject exceptionally well and provided many interesting details and facts about the personalities-lives of Revolutionary War figures. It felt like we were privy to the "inside scoop" of the news of the day. | ||||||

Fascinating insight to the Revolutionary War Era

| Even though it was pouring down rain, we had a fascinating snapshot of the events that took place on the island of Manhattan before, during and after the Revolutionary War. The tour guide was knowledgeable and interesting, she was very engaging and her stories and descriptions of events allowed us to picture the events and geography in our minds. I would recommend this tour to anyone with even a little interest in the Revolutionary War Era and the events that occured in NYC. | ||||||

| This tour is amazing. It was the second time time my friends and I had gone on the tour and we weren't disappointed. The tour guide, Karen, is great. She is very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions in detail. She was very personable with everyone, and encouraged questions and discussions. Even though it was raining and windy (really one of the rainiest days I have ever seen) it didn't take away from the tour, the group trudged on as if it was a normal sunny day. I recommend this tour to anyone. It is well worth it. | ||||||

| Our guide could not have been more informed on this topic. She was incredible! She carried copies of etchings that were very helpful in picturing what lower manhattan looking like over 200 years ago. She was very detailed in her information and really was able to give you a sense of the history and what it was like to live at that time. While it was a long walk, we went slowly from site to site. Maybe too detailed for some people, but we enjoyed every minute. We would love to do more of these tours in the future. | ||||||
