| Our guide was great, knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
Loved all the spots she took us to.
Had a great time and now I know where to go when I come back.
Very worthwhile. |

| It was very interesting and well worth the time. The trip delivered all that it promised. I would suggest that since people on the trip might need to coordinate with others that the end point of the trip be published and end within 15 minutes of the posted time. (Posted for Suzanne Courtney.) |

| Great tour leader and great information. The tour dragged a little and we were getting impatient towards the end A map depicting our route and the places we stopped would have been helpful. |

| I took the Soho/NoLita shopping tour on January 10th. The guide was very nice and helpful. She gave a lot of historical tidbits which I appreciated. Overall, I thought the tour was just OK and if you measure the success by purchases made by the group of seven women it wasn't very much. We only visited a handful of stores to be honest although we were given a list of stores that we could visit on our own which was useful. I did better on my own walking around the area. The cost of the tour wasn't too expensive so I don't think that money was lost. |

| Julie, our guide was both lovely and funky - good choice of person for the activity.
I was most impressed by our guide. She was approachable, knowledgeable, interesting, open and receptive to questions - very personable. Pay her well.
I would have enjoyed even more historical information about the area. That said, I understand this was a "shopping tour" and Julie did a very good job incorporating information with "shopping".
Not too impressed with the shops, but then, I am from an urban area.
Wish we had known that shops did not open until 11:00 in SoHo.
Oh and MarieBelle - if this is what New Yorkers think is the "ultimate" they haven't, one - read what is in the ingredient list or two, have not been abroad for chocolate.
All said, I'd still recommend the experience. |

| Hallie was a wonderful leader, and tailored her tour to the group audience. When I was done at one store, she helpfully pointed me to the next store I could visit ahead of the group. I did appreciate not spending too much time at any one store, so that we could see a maximum number of stores in the area. I never would have known about the Young Designers fair without her help. Thanks so much and looking forward to the Garment District tour in the Fall! |

| This is the second Shop Gotham tour I have taken. Having greatly enjoyed the Garment Center one, I thought the Soho was worth trying. And indeed it was! We scooted in and out of some really interesting shops, getting a taste of both high style & function.Store owners were so welcoming and I walked away with a couple of great items. The tour time goes very fast so as advised I used my discounts later on--that was a fun incentive to stick around. A last note to Shop Gotham: the group was very diverse and I commend the guide for expertly managing everyone. |

Great shopping experience! Highly recommend! A++++

| "Nature was not on our side, but this rainy yucky day was kept lively and jam packed with good stuff by an informed and very lively guide who so evidently targeted the stores to our group. I just relocated to the city and felt like a real New Yorker! Totally enjoyed the shopping selections and would recommend this tour to everyone." |

Great Tour!
