Best of New York Tour Review
Thu, Nov 20, 08   8:00 AM jennykniese Female 40-49 Unspecified Unspecified
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.

We came back from New York with tons of great photos. Be ready to zip around Manhattan in two hours. We walked fast!! The tour was a lot of fun and a great concept. We didn't have to worry about taking anymore photos on the rest of the trip.

Great way to get to know the City
Wed, Jun 18, 08   3:00 PM reneesue Female 40-49 Unspecified Group of Friends
We really enjoyed our photo tour of New York this past June. Mark was great, the photos are good and we felt very comfortable with the city after our 3 hour tour. We took the tour as soon as we arrived in the city and once we were done we felt great getting around on our own for the next three days - thanks to the tour we took with Mark. I highly recommend it - it's well worth the price. We love the photo memories we have of our trip. Only one strong recommendation - the tour is very fast (Mark wants you to get your money's worth) so wear running shoes - seriously!!

The photographer was professional, courteous, knowlegable and FUN! We got to pick what we wanted to see. We got some brief background histories on the places we visited; just enough to remember. Most importantly, we have GOOD pictures of us TOGETHER!

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.

A great way to see NYC!

I took this tour during a girls weekend. I highly recommend this tour! What a wonderful way to see the city as well as great pictures to share with friends and family back home. I was very satisfied with the tour. We went to places that I know I wouldn't have seen if it wasn't for Marc. He was awesome! He taught us how to use the subway system -which is a great and inexpensive way to get around the city. We would have never done this on our own and would have spent a fortune on cabs. Marc was very informative and you truly can see he loves sharing his city with you. He showed us sites that we would have never visited on our own as well as made great recommendations on the way. He even dropped us off at a great restaurant in Little Italy for lunch. He called us a couple of hours afterwards to tell us our pictures were ready and already waiting for us at the hotel. During that conversation, he gave us directions to some other sites to visit. I highly recommend this tour and I have shared his brochure and website with all my co-workers and friends. Having the trip captured professionally on film is worth the price alone. The memories are captured and everyone in your party are in the picture as well. A true benefit of a personal tour with a guide that has a great eye for photography!

Perfect Bachelorette Party!
Sat, Jan 31  1:45 PM marlawoulf Female 20-29 Local Group of Friends
It was AMAZING!! A group of 4 girls did this for my sisters bachelorette. I brought funny sunglasses and fake teeth, hats and wigs - so we could dress up and really let loose. Marc was pretty awesome and a really great guy - and the perfect guide. We were laughing so hard our stomachs hurt afterwards. Highly recommend this for families, couples, friends, and for outtings like a bachelorette - birthdays - whatever! It's a must do in NYC. I grew up right outside of NYC, and we had never seen the city like that - it was AMAZING and we all had a blast. Best photos ever!

A Must !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fri, Sep 5, 08   5:00 PM dpeduto12 Female 20-29 Local Couple on a Date
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!!!

great day out for native NYers too
Sun, May 18, 08   2:00 PM Caper24 Female 40-49 Local Couple on a Date
I grew up in Queens, but Mark from phototrek still showed me a thing or two about NYC that I didn't know! It was great fun being a "tourist" for the day. The pictures came out clear and beautiful, money well spent for NYers or out of town tourists. He takes you to photo spots you will want to remember!

Anniversary trip and first time to nyc loved it!
Tue, Mar 25, 08   2:00 PM 2schroeders Female 30-39 Local Family Without Children
I loved our tour guide Marc Samuels. He was fantastic! He took my husband and I thru the best of NYC. He took some fantastic pictures with great ideas that we would not of thought of. He gave us some great advice on how to navigate thru the subway system and the diffrent streets and how they work. He was very nice and even helped us with a little video thru a church. It was so nice having our own private tour guide and taking pictures of us. We felt like very important people and I am so glad we took the tour and would recommend it to anyone. I loved his website and that is where I got the idea to use the tour! I would love to come back there someday with some girlfriends and I will remember this place for sure. Thank you and please tell Marc Samuels - Thank you from Bill and Tammy Schroeder from Milwaukee, WI!!

Great Way To Remember Your NYC Visit
Sun, Jan 27, 08   8:00 AM jdmackiewicz Male 40-49 Local Other
We use to live in NYC. We returned for a visit and to elope. We wanted photos of our time in NYC and found Photo Trek Tours on the web. Marc did a great job and I highly recommend him. He was friendly, prompt, flexible, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Since our plans did not quite fit the tour description I called and left a voice mail requesting a call back before booking. Marc was prompt in responding and provided me with guidance for booking the tour to fit our needs. Even the booking service Zerve, provided unexpected customer service. I purchased two tours on back to back days for what we had planned. A Zerve customer service representative called me to make sure I had intended to book both tours because they were booked about 15 minutes apart. The Zerve representative wanted to make sure I had not accidentally duplicated the booking with the second purchase. I personally feel this is a sign of quality customer service. During our NYC photo tour Marc had all the bases covered maneuvering the city and catching some great pictures of our time in NYC. Marc was also helpful and informative when we went to city hall to get married. He even was the witness for our ceremony. The photo cd's of our trip were delivered right to our hotel before we departed NYC. I doubt anyone will be disappointed with Marc's service.

Definitely recommended for first time visitors
Sun, Jan 6, 08   9:30 AM deekozub Female 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
It was just the two of us, so it was wonderful to have someone take pictures of the BOTH of us instead of either having just one of us in all of the pics, or bugging other people to take pictures that may or may not be any good. The pictures are beautiful. Also, being first timers to NYC, he gave recommendations about certain areas and restaurants we would personally enjoy and also REALLY helped us learn the subway system. That was one of the best parts of this tour. We learned so much that we would have had no idea about, if it weren't for him. (By the way Marc~ if you are reading this, we ROCKED the subway system the days after your tour thanks to you!! We even rode the bus and knew to use our metro-card.) ~ Kerissa & Danielle Knoxville, Tennessee

Surprise Anniversary
Fri, Dec 28, 07   3:00 PM hirenbp Male 20-29 Local Couple on a Date
I didn't tell my girlfriend we would be going on a photo tour of new york city but I planned it out with Marc and he was Great! Marc and I talked a few times through email and over the phone and he helped organize the tour for me. He even helped me pick out a place where I could give my girlfriend a special gift I bought her in a setting away from all the commotion of NYC. Afterwards he directed us to where we needed to go and even got the cd of pictures to us a day later. Marc was great and I highly recommend him.
