| When I was overplanning my trip to New York, I found this tour on newyorkcity.com. I booked it because there is nothing that I hate more than asking people around us, "Can you take our picture?" Marc was supposd to be off during the week because his wife is having their first baby. But I sent Marc an e-mail and he scheduled us, providing that his wife did not go into labour. Luckily, she did not have the baby before our appointment, so he met us at our hotel, and we were off! Literally! WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES, because you will walk miles. Marc was pleasant, friendly, and funny. He made us instantly feel comfortable. He gave good "New Yorker" tidbits and information and took wonderful photos as well.
I really enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to anyone. I even would book it again if I came to New York because I love good quality photos. It was worth the money. |

| What an experience! Marc was fantastic, he showed us so many different areas of New York and how to use the subway. As a result, we covered so much ground and felt really confident getting around the city after the tour.
Marc has loads of tips and info to share about the City and it really is a fantastic experience when you get home and share it with your friends and family. |

| My wife and I where visiting New York from Australia as part of a Birthday gift to my wife and purchased the four-hour tour.
Marc Samuels provided a wonderful and enthusiastic service.
Mr Samuels’s obvious enthusiasm for his native New York was infectious and my wife and I not only enjoyed the photographs but also the fabulous guided tour.
We would recommend this tour to all and sundry.

| We took the "Best of New York" tour, and it was the highlight of our trip. Marc, our guide took us all over, got us around on the subway, pointed out items of interest we should go back and spend more time seeing (and explained how to get back to them), and showed things and took us places an ordinary tourist might not get to see. On top of all that, he took dozens and dozens of great pictures of group all over the city. I would strongly, strongly recomend this tour!!! |

| Mark was great. He was very knowledgable about New York and delivered exactly what was promised, a tour that showed us the Best of New York City. The CD full of pictures was delivered to our hotel the same day and we can't wait to go and print them out! Wear comfy shoes. We did the 4 hour tour and it was definitely worth the money! |

| My husband and I did this tour last weekend, and it was amazing and well worth the money. We were a little up and down at first if we should do it, but only because the cost was high for our finances and budget. But it was the best thing we did while in NYC and don't regret spending the money at all.
Marc was awesome and took us places we probably would have overlooked or passed up because our stay was so short. He made the tourist side of our weekend for sure.
Marc was very concerned with wanting to make sure we got to see as much as we could in our 4 hour tour. I had made a list of places and he asked throughout the tour to take our list back out to make sure we were covering everything and to see what we should do next.
The pictures were wonderful, my husband and I hardly have any pictures of the two of us on vacation because there is usually no one to take them. Now we have pictures of us in NYC. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos it is crazy.
Thanks so much Marc for making our trip so enjoyable. |

| What a great way to see New York. Marc told us all the great places to see shop and eat. He showed us to use the metro and gave us directions to all the places we wanted to see. We were only in New York for a weekend and would never have seen as much as we did without Marcs tour and help for getting around. On top of that we have a fantastic photo album. In the 2hrs we got alot more than the stated 70 photos and the quality is excellent (he even managed to catch my husband smiling) We had our doubts about what to expect but were really pleased and would definitely reccommend this to others, infact we will book again when we return with the kids. We booked 8am tour which was great as the streets werent too busy and it gave us the rest of the day to take marcs advice and explore the city. Our photos were at our hotel by 5pm the same evening. |

| Marc helped make our wedding day in NYC even more special - the photos he captured are great and will make the day we eloped to the Big Apple all that more memorable! His selection of poses and background shots really captured the essence of the city and the romance of the moment. Thanks! |

| If you only have 4 hours in New York spend it on this tour. If you have 2 weeks in New York start with a 4 hour tour ! |
