Be driven and learn about upper N.Y.City

It was a delightful fun tour. Our guide knew such interesting facts and triva about NY City which made the tour very interesting. It was fun to find out where celebrities live and shop. It's truely amazing how much celebrities are willing to pay for their apartments. It also gaves you insight into the neighborhoods of the upper East and West side of town. It helped us realize the city is made up of a bunch of wonderful little neighborhoods, each unique in it own way . Each offering wonderful stories about the people who live there. We learned about Central Park and the Museums, and also what was happening at them. It was a small group, so you were able to ask questions. It was a relaxing and informative fun morning. Our guides were great!

Very much enjoyed my tour. I found it to be very informative, more personal and a nice change from the big commercial tours. Our guide was gracious with a terrific sense of humor and had a superior knowlegde of the city of NY. Highly recomended!

Informative, but I missed a lot of sights....
Sat, Nov 24, 07   9:00 AM marlene44 Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
I enjoyed the tour. The guide was quite friendly and knowledgeable, with a lot of interesting anecdotes. However, the bus utilzed for the tour , a small omnibus, was not the best for sight seeing. I suppose it was best for some of the small side streets. I sat on the right side (not the drivers side) and most of the sights seemed to be viewable only from the left side of the bus. For example, going down Central Park East and West I could not tell you if a building was higher than the first floor--I could not see. Still even if I could not see Madonna's apt on the 4th floor, I was able to see the doorway at least and was appreciative of the information shared with us. I recommend that you sit on the LEFT if this type of bus will continue to be used.

Well Worth The Money

The tour given by Mike was awesome. He was humorous, well informed and provided many interesting anecdotes, not just about celebrities, but also about New York City, its real estate, etc. I trhoroughly enjoyed the tour and it was great that we got to get off the bus and tour some neighborhoods by foot. I highly recommend this tour.

The Celebrity Sight-Seeing Tour was a lot of fun! We did not see any celebrities on the tour, but learned where we might see some later, which we did. We saw Kelly Ripa, Mario Lopez and Eva Longoria!! We were so excited!!

it was the best tour i have ever been on...
Sat, Apr 19, 08   2:00 PM yminfante Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
i really enjoyed this tour. i usually take 2-3 vacations a year for the past 5 years this trip was by far the best trip ever... i have been to nyc three times this was the best mainly because your tour was so educational and entertaining i saw a side of nyc that only a local would see. i really enjoyed our tour i must be honest there was four of us on the tour and my husband and my friends husband were kind of not looking forward to our tour as they are not into celebrity gossip... well they were pleasantly surprised and it has been the topic of conversation ever since. the tour was custom built for everyone to enjoy. thanks for that. overall i really enjoyed the tour and well defintely do it again and will recommend it to everyone i know. thanks for make this the best vacation ever. yri infante

Great Tour!!

Thank you for the wonderful tour! Jim Dykes was the most knowledgeable tour guide I have ever encountered. In our three-hour tour, Jim was able to share a ton of information on where various celebrities live, shop, dine, hang out, etc. In addition to providing a lot of history, Jim shared some celebrity gossip and scandals that we had not heard before. This is definitely a unique tour I would highly recommend to everyone!

Excellent, Knowledgeable and a bit Gossipy!
Sat, Sep 29, 07   9:00 AM Kathyschneid Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Review of Rich and Famous Tour - New York City My friends and I were recently amazed and thrilled with the Rich and Famous Tour of New York. Our tour guide, Jim Dykes, was personable, witty and very knowledgeable. We were most impressed that the tour was not the usual "now if you will turn your head to the right you will see ..." sort of tour. It was informal in that way but the tour guide gave you the feeling that you were his dearest of friends and he was showing you New York as you had never seen it before. He did not mind questions, serious, gossipy or otherwise. On the contrary, he welcomed them and answered every one. He gave us all the trivia spiced with just the right amount of newsy gossip to keep our interest peaked. We enjoyed the experience very much and will sign up again on our next venture to the city. Thank you for your service to the curious tourist! Kathy Schneider Ashland, Kentucky

A delightful and imformative tour

Not only was this a delightful and relaxing way to see several neighborhoods of the city but was also very informative as to the natives that inhabit the island. You really get a feel of everday life as well as the homes, and gossip of the famous and wealthy. Mike, our guide, loves the city and the people who live there. Would recommend to anyone who wants to skip the hassle of the large buses and impersonal tour guides.

Jim was very informative. We enjoyed all the tidbits he threw our way. It was nice having the bus trip stop a few times and be able to get out and walk and still hear lots of interesting info. Would highly recommend this tour, you won't be disappointed!

Great Tour!
Sat, Nov 8, 08   9:00 AM bemoor Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My wife and I were in town for only a couple of days, and we were interested in touring around the Central Park areas of Manhattan. We were looking for a tour that had a more personal feel to it than the typcial double decker tours, and this tour was perfect. We took this tour on a Saturday morning with Jim Dykes. Jim provided a lot of history, current facts, and gossip about the various areas and sites we were touring. The stories were not only informative, but really entertaining. The tour lasted just over three hours which fit perfectly into our weekend. We highly recommend this tour.

Excellent Tour!!
Sat, Sep 6, 08   2:00 PM Lisalathrop Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Jim Dykes was an EXCELLENT tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about where stars live in New York. He also spent considerable more time taking my mother and me to other sites (e.g., the Women's Republican Club to get a photograph from a terrace). We also enjoyed chatting with the mayor's girlfriend and admiring her dogs. We could not have asked for a better tour guide. Jim also gave us the confidence to get around the City so that we did not constantly get lost. I definitely will take another tour with Jim the next time I visit the City with my husband. I highly recommend this tour. Great job, Jim!! Thank you.
