I enjoyed seeing the designer showrooms and the fashions. The 3 hour tour passed by very quickly, leaving some of us wanting to see more. After the tour I wandered the Fashion District for another 2 hours. I never saw anything close to the access our tour provided. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and personable. I will definitely consider your other tours! |

My sisters and I flew out to NYC for our annual sisters trip. This was the first tour we took that kicked off our get together. I will let you know that our guide was fantastic! Not only did she take us to great sample sales, but also recommended other stores that may be of intrest.
The products we came back with were inexpensive (discounted heavily, not retail price) but were products that were not even not even shelves yet.
My sisters and I agree, we would do it all over again...Thanks so much for the fabolous experience...

I took my Mom and two teenage daughters on the tour and all 3 generations had a great time. Fun shops and buying opportunities not found elsewhere. Our guide Molly was a pleasure and very informative. We recommend this tour!! |

I went with a girlfriend and was paired with 6 other women, 2 mother-daughters and 2 sisters. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and helpful and sensitive to trying to keep everyone happy. It's a little challenging to meet everyone's needs but we went to a range of places (about 6) with a range of styles that allowed everyone to go home with at least one purchase. Good value all around. The challenge was trying to find and make decisions quickly so we could get it all in. |

The guided shopping tour was a blast! My mother-in-law and I went not knowing what to expect, but we had a great experience. Marla was fantastic!!! On our tour, we went to several showrooms and sample sales. There were great prices and fabulous pieces, depending on what you were looking for. I found a great shirt, a fantastic designer jacket, and a fun sweater to wear with jeans. There was something for everyone. I would recommend this to anyone visiting New York that enjoys shopping, and I will definitely do it again on my next trip. |

We have been in the city many times and were looking for something different, and this tour provided a view of the city we had not seen. The meeting location was perfect and set the tone for the tour. Marla did a great job getting our group from showroom to showroom. She took us in to meet designers that we otherwise would not have meet and we had access to their showrooms and sample sales. We enjoyed our tour of the garment district and would recommend it to others. Maybe next time we'll try a tour that focuses on accessories! |

2nd time I have taken this tour and loved it just as much. Invited a friend visiting from Sidney and she loved it too. Reluctant to spend money, but the deals were too good to resist!. We scored big a major shoe sale. This is not for the Gap shopper but for women who appreciate more interesting fashionable clothing & accessories and want a really cool shopping experience. |

We thoroughly enjoyed our Shop Gotham tour. We went to private and public sample sales and found some great bargains. We even met some of the designers. The only minor complaint I might have is that there isn't enough time in the larger places to go through all the merchandise. Other than that, the tour is quite enjoyable. It's definitely not your run-of-the-mill touristy activity. |

Never heard of most of the brands. The items clothes,jewelry,etc.look like they were last years better store clearance leftovers from 2007. No sizes after 12 thats for sure. Never saw a designer I,d heard of. The gift bag was a laugh. A tape measure and catalogue to make more money on. The guide was nice. |
