Garment District Tour was a great experience.

My 14 year old daughter and I took this tour while in New York City. Our tour guide was wonderful. She gave us information about each designer we visited and pointers as to what to look for in each shop. The designers were very friendly and happy to see us come into thier shop. I found good deals on designer clothes for my daughter. It is worth the time and the money taking this tour.

This was the best tour ever! We enjoyed the sample sales with the best deals! Meeting the designers was a plus as well. It was a good way to experience NY fashion behind the scenes. Our tour guide Christina was great. She gave us the ins and outs of how to shop in NY and not spend a whole lot!

Glad we weren't on own!

So glad we took this tour. My daughter asked "why couldn't we do this on our own?" And as soon as the tour started she saw why. On our own we probably wouldn't have gotten off Broadway and would have missed an incredible amount. We visited a great mix of shops & vendors; got an insiders point of view history of the area (past and present). A great time! Our guide, Christina, was a joy! Pleasant, knowledgable, and very personable. She shared with our group as much as possible in the short time we had ...which simply flew by! We had a wonderful time, would do it again, and will be sure to recommend it to anyone we know who might be going to New York and looking for a unique few hours.

Lots of Fun
Fri, Mar 21, 08   10:00 AM SuzMark Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I went on this tour with my 16 year old daughter and her friend. Our tour guide, Julie, was fun and knowledgeable. The group size was very manageable. The tour had a nice variety from accessories to clothing (including outer wear and bathing suits). There were styles available for all of the age ranges in the group (two other mother/daughter groups were with us), although there were not a lot of choices in larger sizes (we happen to be small sizes, so it worked out great for us). Deals were terrific and well worth the price of the tour, alone. We loved being able to get into showrooms that aren't open to the public. Julie also gave us a sheet with some other places to visit, and had other shopping tips for the rest of the week.

very enjoyable

I booked this tour so that my daughter and I could become more familiar with Soho. The tour guide immediately tailored the tour to a 17 year old girl. The guide was engaging, smart and professional. We had a really nice time.

Soho /Nolita tour great way to spend a few hours
Sat, Mar 8, 08   11:00 AM foodfantasie Female 50-59 Local Other
I enjoyed getting to see know some very interesting stores and using my discounts after the tour at my leisure. tour guide was charming and vibrant. Even though i could have gone on for many hours, i think the timeframe works really well. And by the way this is the second Shop Gotham Tour I took and I enjoyed them both

A very fun day.
Wed, Feb 20, 08   10:00 AM cellee Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My friend and I had a very good day and I would take the tour again. Although, I wouldn't want to go to the same shops. Grace Hats and Susan Bonomo were terrible and I wouldn't want to go back to either again. I design hats and was especially interested in going to Grace Hats -- what a dissappointment. If I were to do the tour again I, personally, would want to spend more time in trim shops. I was really hoping to come home with some fantastic ribbon. The people at Susan Bonomo made us feel like they were cleaning out their closet and wanted us to buy the stuff they no longer wanted. Our tour guide was fantastic. She made us feel like a group of friends and I feel she went out of her way to make our day special. The schedule and timing was fantastic and we owe that all to our guide. Oh yes, the Cosmetic Warehouse wasn't worth it either. In today's world, especially with my age group, we are using speciality make up and there wasn't anything there for us.

Great introduction to SoHo shopping
Sun, Feb 17, 08   12:00 PM kwoods Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
We had 11 people so it was difficult to go through many of the stores quickly. I would encourage the leader to emphasize that indiviudals can return to stores they like versus holding up the whole group. She did a great job in catering to the younger girls in the group, which made the time more enjoyable for all. Really enjoyed the Nolita "garage" show which was our last stop on the tour.

Great places too many women at once
Sun, Feb 17, 08   12:00 PM gowdenn Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
The idea of the tour was great but we did not get to see many places on our tour due to other women who would shop and slow down the rest of us. My suggestion is that shopping in the stores should be saved for after the two our tour. Have a salesperson from each store described the stores and the types of merchandise carried. Then let clients walk around the store to quickly view the merchandise. No more that 5 minutes per store. Provide each attendee with not only the list of stores (very good idea) but also a pen to make notes. The area is small enough , with the map provided, to go back to any locations to shop. If we could have moved a little more quickly, we could have seen more streets and stores. I went back to Soha on Monday and did some shopping. I bought from one of the stores we saw but made other discoveries while there. I would have also loved to have had more information to NoLita. I went back on my own on Monday but not being familiar with the area, I only went back to the store on the tour. Merchants should appreciate this tour. I bought several things with my discount in Soho. Tonya, tour guide was great!!!!!!!!

Knowing the Ins and Outs
Sat, Feb 16, 08   11:00 AM lakitaayers Female 20-29 Local Individual
I really enjoyed this tour It was educational, informative, and almost like a behind the scence pass to a shoppers world. If I had never taken this tour I know I would have never found or even looked for different shops outside if the tourist area. This was a wonderful trip I recommend it to all looking for there own look and taste in merchandise.

Knowledgable New Yorker provides great tour
Sat, Feb 16, 08   11:00 AM AlexRW Female Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Unspecified
The tour provided our group with a New York native that was able to explain the history of the area, the neatest unique shops from clothing to candy and even a little celebrity gossip. The 2 hour tour was one of the highlights in our trip. After the tour we knew which boutique was the one started by Project Runway participants or the boutique that carries the latest fashions from Paris. New York can be overwhelming and hard to determine which street has a great boutique squeezed between every day stores. This tour gives you a expansive over view of the area and the ability to go to the best shops so that you have even more time in this amazing city. Highly, highly recommend!

GREAT fun (with some suggestions)
Fri, Feb 8, 08   10:00 AM Whalenk Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
This is a fabulous and very fun insider shopping tour of the garment district. We bought great clothing and got good information about the manufacturing of designer clothes and accessories. We were fortunate to get Marla, the owner of the company, as our guide, and she was fun, lively, informative and brutally honest when we tried on clothes (always good to have!!). Two suggestions: a few of our group members had large breasts, and were disappointed that many of the clothes didn't fit or look great on them. The largest size available seemed to be 8. I would suggest letting tour members know this in advance. The second suggestion would be to include more accessory show rooms -- maybe shoes and bags show rooms? This would also help the purchasing power of women who don't wear size 0 - 8 clothing. Overall, however, this is a tour that is well worth it and definitely recommended!!!

It was a highlight!

So glad we did the shopping tour. Our teenage daughters really enjoyed it. We covered a variety of stores which provided something for everyone. Family members who live in NY had never heard of it and were glad to know they could recommend it to visitors.
