not as much variety as expected
Fri, Jun 13, 08   10:00 AM judytata Unspecified 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
Guide was knowledgeable but found we passed up and down one street numerous times backtracking. There was a great sample sale we couldnt get in to. The samples are open to the public and advertised on the net. Would have thought paying a guide would get us access to better opportunities. Overall not worth the money. The first stsop was a jewelry stop-saw the same stuff in China Town for a fraction of the $$ felt like I was trapped in a rug store in Moracco. Would like a refund

A great way to get into the NY Shopping groove

I recently took my daughters (18 and 15) to New York for their first visit. Whilst I knew the general areas to go (Soho etc), I had no ideas of the specifics of individual stores. The Shop Gotham guide, Adrienne, quickly zoomed in on the girl's tastes and wish list, and took us to a succession of interesting stores. After a couple of hours my partner and I were able to collapse into a restaurant leaving the girls in Adrienne’s capable hands. My daughters are now proven Big Apple Shoppers (although my wallet is somewhat lighter!) A big thanks from all of us to Adrienne and Shop Gotham

My group was looking for unknown gems.
Fri, Sep 1, 06   11:00 AM lindarosenta Unspecified Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My group was definately not looking for high end stores. There was 4 in our group two mothers and daughters. The closes thing we stopped at that had anything of interest was an asian jewelry store with a lot of imitation jewelry. ?So big? I think if you set up the tours according to interest it would be better. I was not there for myself. I came on this tour for my daughter age 22. She cannot afford most of the stores we were visited. She was hopping for funky, hip, discount stores. If we wanted high end we already know where 5th avenue is located. Disappointing!!!

Don't Waste Your Money, Do It Yourself

My wife and I had two days in New York City. We both love Project Runway and she recently graduated from fashion design school so since neither of us knew anything about where the best shops were we decided to have someone "in the know" show us around so we bought this tour hoping that we'd be shown some of those secret gems or small deginer boutiques you always hope to discover. When we started at DKNY and one of the members of our group asked to go to Anthropologie it felt like a tour through our local mall, not Soho. After DKNY we hit a place that sells interchangeable tops to flats and then a knick-knack store with the cheapest costume jewelry you'll ever find around the corner. After a stop at a candy store (yes, candy) and a place that sells very tiny cupcakes (yes, cupcakes) we were brought to one large German deginer's store full of off the rack gear that would have gotten you kicked off Project Runway. Our third legit clothing store was another boring disaster and at this point we saw another couple and a mother/daughter pair say goodbye to our tour guide so we decided to eat the $78 we spent and we left as well. My recomtmendation is to just have a cab driver drop you off at the corner of West Broadway and Prince Street and hen just WALK every street in a 5 block radius. We did that and got more done in the hour after we left the group than the hour with it. We went into Prada, Michael Kors, Dolce and Gabana and Armani one, right after another on our own and never got a whif of them while on this tour. It's really all there for you if you aren't lazy like us: just do the walking yourself up and down Prince and Spring Streets.

Fun and informative

Had a great time. Our guide was informative and had wealth of knowledge of the area and great tips. Highly recommend for those that aren't familiar with the area to get insider's knowledge of the area.

great time for all
Sun, Aug 17, 08   12:00 PM rocface Male 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
i actually enjoyed my self and will say what i saw others write and that is you truly need more than two hours to fully enjoy this tour. the guide was well imformed and did her best to cater to everyone in the group for instance if you were done browsing she pointed you into the right direction of the next place we were going to.. instead of just waiting fro everone to be done.. i accompnaied my girlfrined as this was one of her many birthday gifts and i felt it was not at all painless. i actually would recommend it for a mothers day gift or just hanging with the girls..

Better if the tours could be separated by age. I think it is very difficult to direct a shopping tour to many different age groups

Our guide, Julie, did a nice job of directing us and explaining the history and architecture of Soho.

Reaches the parts other tours don't reach.

I don't pretend to be a hard-core shopper but it was still interesting to me! A well constructive and informative tour that showed us a variety of stores that we'd have just walked past or not found even if we had spent days in the area! I think the guide tailored the tour for who was there on the day, not simply going around the route. Well done Molly & thanks again.

A unique opportunity to get an insider's view

I purchased a ticket to get a behind the scene's look into the Garment industry and I wasn't disappointed. Although the tour caters towards women and sample sales of women's clothing, there were sales for men's clothing as well. I highly recommend this tour to men and women alike.

Wife's 30th Birthday Celebration
Sun, Dec 17, 06   11:00 AM holken30 Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Wonderful tour that provided my wife and I an opportunity to shop in hidden areas of the city that we would have never ventured to on our own. The guide was outstanding and really took the time to share with us history about the city, details about where to dine, how to navigate the city, and much more. She was very fashion savy and took the time to understand what we wanted before venturing into stores or boutiques that were of no intrest to us. Highly recommended for those seeking an off the beaten track shopping experience. Get out of mid town and let the guide show you the heart of New York City shopping and fashion. A must for the first time visitor... We were most impressed with how little pressure there is to buy anything from the boutiques and galleries we visited. We will certainly be back for another trip and certainly ask for an extended length tour.

awesome tour
Fri, Apr 21, 06   11:00 AM MMazius Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Unspecified
Our tour guide was Hallie. She was energetic, extremely knowledgable and in tune with what we'd be interested in. She took us to a variety of off the beat and path stores and shared interesting trivia and history about Nolita and So Ho. After the tour, my family and I had a feel for the area so we extended our shopping tour and had even more fun. When we return to New York, we'll look forward to doing another Gothan City tour.
