Great fun, excellent orientation. memories to keep

This was an amazing tour with a whole disk full of fantastic photo memories to treasure. We meet Yannie bright an early at 8am which was a great time of day to do. The streets were not too busy and the lighting on the pictures was beautiful. Yannie instantly put us at ease and the fun started straight away. We covered lots of areas on the tour but didn't feel rushed at all. Along the way Yannie pointed out lots of interesting places and was very knowledgeable. Not only was the tour great fun it was an excellent way to gain quick orientation of the city and importantly the subway. We did this activity on out first day and would definitely recommend this. Yannie helped us buy our subway tickets and showed us how to get around, which without him could have been difficult and time consuming. It saved us loads of time and money for the rest of the 5 days. We covered Time Sq, Central park, Brooklyn Bridge and SOHO, ending at a lovely breakfast pace - the silver café (I think it was called) The disk arrived at our hotel the very next day and had many more pictures than expected on it which was a lovely surprise. When we looked through the pictures we were thrilled. They captured some great memories which we would never have had without this tour. It took the pressure off the rest of the week worrying about getting the pictures we really wanted. It also avoided the holiday snaps couples often end up with that have each individual in front of each attraction and none together. The whole experience was great we would certainly recommend it to anyone. The lasting memories these photos gave us will be treasured. Thank you for a fantastic time.

Fun, energetic and memorable experience.

We were in New York celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary. We wanted special pictures so we researched Phototrec tours and knew we had to book it. Marc toured us through Times Square, Central Park, Park Avenue, subways and Brooklyn. The photos are awesome. We especially love those shadowed photos in the tunnel at central park. So romantic. In other photos we felt like celebrities as we stood in the middle of the street in Times Square (when traffic was at a red light of course) and did actions poses in front of the taxis. Marc was a great tour guide a true New Yorker and he gave us the New York experience. We have already recommended him to many of my friends.

Marc was fantastic, he was right on time to meet us and got straight to business with the tour! He was extremely friendly to talk to and gave us some great advice about where to go and what to see on our trip, as well as introducing us to the subway, which we then continued to use at complete ease for the remainder of our time in the city which made sight seeing all the more easier! We went around Times Square, part of Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge and a little of Soho, he shared lots of his interesting knowledge about these locations as we walked around them and now have 165 fantastic photos to keep our memories, which he delivered on CD to our hotel the very next morning. Be ready to smile lots and wear comfortable footwear but most of all just enjoy it, the end result will be no doubt as fab as ours!

It was our first time in New York City so a tour was a must. We really enjoyed Marc and had a great time. If it wasn't for Marc we would have missed out on alot of the good things of New York City. He explained the Subway system so we were comfortable enough to use it later in our trip by ourselves. It was a great tour and would recommend to anyone going to New York City.

Great Tour

Since we were willing to do a lot of walking on our visit and would see many neighborhoods on our own, we elected to finish by going to the Financial District and seeing Wall Street, Ground Zero, the "Bull", etc. Glad we did. I would highly recommend for anyone who is willing to do a lot of walking.

Marc was great! He gave us so many little nuggets that you could only get from a real New Yorker that made the rest of our stay in NYC great! Also we loved the pictures we got, they all turned out great and we got so many more than we expected! Thank you PhotoTrek Tours! Awesome job!

A must do!!

I booked this a surprise gift for my girlfriend's birthday. When on holiday as a couple it is not easy to get good photos of the two of you without constantly asking others to take a photo of you and apart from the hassle, the quality is often not good enough. Therefore we thought this trip would eliminate all these issues and we were not disappointed. The photographer Marc was a very enthusiastic, knowledgeable bloke and took us around the city for well over the advertised 2 hours taking in Times Square, Central Park, the subway and Brooklyn Bridge among other sites. The photos are amazing and we can't thank him enough. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone, particularly couples.

The Absolute Best!

This is absolutely the best tour for seeing NYC in a short period of time. I can't say enough good things about Marc and this tour. This is the fourth time I have taken guests on this tour, and I always learn and see something new. There is no better way to get a feel for the city; plus all the great pictures! I'm sure I'll be back!
