| Our "custom" tour was fabulous - couldn't have asked for more or better! Marc is a great walking partner, and we thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hours. Watching those double-decker tour buses roll by reminded us how lucky we were to be seeing Manhattan through the eyes of a New Yorker and at ground level! |

| I am very glad we decided to do the Phototrek tour. It seems expensive up front, but when you break down the cost per picture, it's less than $3 per picture. And it was probably less than that because Marc took more than the advertised number of pics! And we have all pics on a CD so we have them forever! Marc is great! He gave us three different routes to choose from for the Best of NY Tour. He guides you on poses and is open to suggestions. We also took our own pics along the way and he didn't mind. We felt like stars getting our pictures taken by the paparazzi. It was a great experience!!! |

| We got married in New York and used Marc as our wedding photographer - an amazing little tour to some of the best spots in town (we went to the Brooklyn Bridge, Times Square, Grand Central Station and Central Park).
We had a great day, and had 500 really good quality photos delivered on CD to our hotel the next morning. The photographer Marc was knowledgeable, a great guide, and clearly loved his native city. Highly recommended. |

| I was very excited about this tour (so excited in fact that I booked it 6 months in advance!) and it didn't disappoint. We did the tour back in September and Mark was fantastic.
We covered so much ground in 3 hours - started in Times Square for some photos that we never would have got by ourselves then to Central Park, Grand Central, Upper West Side, Brooklyn Bridge, SoHo and we even got some shots on the subway.
He taught us how to use the subway and we used it constantly for the rest of our stay. After the tour we felt comfortable in the city, on the subway and got a great set of photos the next day to remember how much we loved New York.
Thanks Mark for a great tour!! |

| Would highly recommend this walking tour as an eye opener to New York. We did the 3 hour tour which enabled us to cover a lot of ground. Marc was very friendly and informative and we will be heading back to a lot of the places we visited for a better look. The photos are amazing - Marc knows exactly where to position you to get the best shot - and were delivered the following day. This is our first trip to New York, and this tour has really helped us focus on where we want to spend our time. |

| My wife & I, both seniors from London, England & with walking difficulties,were delighted with the way Marc helped us on our 3 hour 'trek' around the Big Apple.
We visited Central Park, Times Square & Brooklyn Bridge & by 08.00 hrs the following morning the disc had been delivered to our hotel with approx. 130 super images.
To say we were 'knackered' the following day would be an understatement having not walked so far in years, but Marc knew all the short cuts especially on the subway network & was so understanding with our continued stopping & starting.
Not really recommended for the elderly or people with mobility problems, but we would not have missed it for the world--the highlight of our stay in New York!
Well done Marc, excellent photos, thanks & good luck for future business.

| We would definitely recommend Photo Trek--wish we could have done it earlier in our trip but we were rained out. Marc, our photographer and guide, consulted us as to which parts of New York we wanted to see so we would not duplicate what we had already seen. As we followed him around he would quickly take pictures of us as he told us about the area we were in. He went at our pace. We were all in good health so we zoomed around and saw pretty much. Since we were leaving the next day, he mailed copies of the pictures to both us and our daughter in another state. Some of the pictures we are not sure of the background--wish we had more information as to what we were standing in front of. At the time, Marc told us but we do not remember all the buildings. We had different poses but the majority of the poses were the same--all 3 lined up in front of an area. Wish we could have had a few more different poses. All in all, Marc was extremely accommodating, fun and helpful. He added much to our trip to New York. Thank you, Marc. |

| Whether you are a New York native or visting from out of Town; the PhotoTrek Tour is not to be missed. Marc our photographer was very knowledgable and insightful on the sites we visited. On our 2 hour tour we visited the City's Landmark Central Park, Times Square and Grand Central Station. Our CD filled with almost 200 images arrived in no time. The photos came out wonderful and the memories will last us a lifetime.
Since this is a tour, you will be doing alot of walking so wear comfortable shoes. It's well worth it!!! |

| my husband and i booked this tour sept 2008 having never been to to new york we were greeted with not only a professional photographer but a true born and bred new yorker!.
our tour guide took us to the best locations for fantastic photo oportunitys and a fantastic informative tour of new york was also included it was fantastic to have someone take great photos without having to ask 20 people along the way.
we travel extensively around the world and partake in many tours but i have to say the concept of this tour is right up there with some of the best it was just great.
our photos were delivered to our hotel the next morning such great and prompt service.
the tour is well worth the money and my husband and i will surely do this tour when we return to this fabulous city thanks for the memories NEW YORK xo
