| I would strongly recommend this activity to anyone visiting New York; usually I am the one who ends up taking all the photos (which means I am hardly ever in any of them!) and with this tour that isn’t an issue.
More importantly though along with some great photo's you are accompanied by a very friendly and knowledgeable local guide. Marc's tips were invaluable to our group and allowed us to discover parts of NYC that we would have otherwise been oblivious to. |

| The Best part of our Trip! Not only did the pictures turn out SUPER, but we got to see sites we would NEVER have thought to go see durng our stay. Not just professional, but very knowlegable about the city AND offered advise on what to see during our stay. It's fast paced, but you don't feel rushed. My husband and I were celebrating our 7 year anniversary. Of all the events we had planned, this was our favorite.
This is a "must do" for anyone. Make sure to do this first as you are guided by a professional with helpful hints on riding the subway, getting around town and suggesting areas to visit according to your likes! Definitely worth it! Definitely will recommend!
Thanks for the memories PhotoTrek! |

| My husband and I were so glad we found out about Mark and took his photo tour of NY's finest. He was so easy to talk to and we learned so much about his city. He snapped pictures with ease which made our time so enjoyable. Be ready to walk a lot which allows for a packed two hours. We love our pictures and tell everyone they have to take this tour. I also would recommend taking the tour early in your visit because he gives great ideas of where his favorite places are. So glad we met you, Mark. Thanks! Scott and Bev |

| The Personal Photo Tour was one of the best tours that we booked during our stay in New York. Our photographer was very informative and kept us going at a quick pace. We were able to see many different sights of New York plus get some wonderful photo's. We did the photo tour on our first day so that we were able to go back if we wanted to, to see things for longer if we wanted. I would HIGHLY reccommend that people get these tours done. |

| We bought this as a surprise for a friend in the UK who was visiting New York with her husband as a surprise for her 40th birthday. It was a great success, as they had a personal guided tour of New York and the photos are a great momento of her special trip. It was a brilliant success and is a fantastic gift for anyone. Many thanks. 110% recommended. |

| Dunno about you, but every time we go somewhere, we end up with lots of shots of the somewhere, but very few shots of us. This unique tour changed that, and we couldn't be happier. I hate to be one of those reviewers who gushes about a purchase, but we were completely satisfied with our recent tour of NYC by PhotoTrek.
Highlights:
Knowledge: "OK, when this light changes, we'll have 2 minutes to go out into the middle of Broadway to get the photo." Sure enough, light goes red, traffic disappears, and <click>, we've got a shot of us like no other.
Flexible: We were meeting friends from the city for dinner, and they ended up heading to our hotel earlier than we planned. The tour was quickly re-arranged, and we ended in Soho instead of at the Bridge. Closer to the hotel, faster to get back.
Fast: We left town before we could get the photos in our hands, but 2 days after we got home, a CD showed up in the mail with all the shots. Now we have to figure out how to narrow down our favorites.
Lowlights: none, really.
Highly recommend. |

| I took my daughter to NYC for a 16th birthday trip. This was her first time visiting NYC and she knew in advance what she wanted to do---see WICKED!
To give her an 'overview" of the city I booked the "Best of New York" tour for our first day there. It was the best thing I could have done. Mark, the tour guide. is knowledgeable and engaging. He keeps the tempo upbeat and hits all of the highlights. On the tour we saw Times Square, Central Park, the Brooklyn Bridge and Soho. This gave her an idea of what she needed to see more of in the rest of our time there.
Yes, we both loved WICKED, but we also both agree that the photos and the experience of PhotoTrek's Best of New York Tour were our favorite part of the visit! Thanks, Mark, you do a super job! I highly recommend this tour to everyone! |

| This tour is one of the memorable highlights of our trip to the USA. Marc was a great guide showing us places we would not have had the opportunity to see on our own. His tours are informative and fun and the photo's are fabulous (which he delievered to our hotel the next day). At the end of our tour Marc recommended a Pizza restaurant for dinner and we were certainly not disappointed....one of the best pizza's we have had. I will certainly be recommending this tour to family, friends and anyone else in Australia. Best 3 hours ever spent!!! Fantastic photo's and memories.......thanks Marc. |

| This was our first time in New York so we planned our photo trek on the first morning to also help us get orientated around Manhattan. We met Marc as exactly as planned and he really made us feel relaxed with ample opportunity to direct where we went. The tour was great .. not only the photos but also the information Marc gave us as we went around. So a great way to spend 2 or 3 hours in New York especially if like us you are only there for a few days. Phototrektours was recommended to us by a friend and we would have no hesitaton in passing on that recomendation having experienced it ourselves... Enjoy !! |
