Definitely a trip highlight. Photo album delight!
Mon, Oct 13, 08   11:00 AM Shondi Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This activity was a highlight of the trip when planning everything for New York City and we were not disapointed. Not only was Marc great in giving tips to getting around on the confusing subway system but he was able to point out historical buildings we passed and give tidbits of information on the sites we came across. We love to scrapbook our vacations and with the pictures that Marc captured we are sure to have a fantastic photo album to show our friends and family. It was wonderful getting creative, fun shots without having to ask people to take the picture for us. Marc was even open to suggestions when we saw a location that looked interesting for a quick photo. We particularly wanted to catch some color changes in the leaves and Marc ensured that we would get what few were in Central Park. One suggestion, wear your walking shoes and get ready to move because you are covering a lot of ground in a short period of time. It was a whirlwind two hours but we had a blast and now have the pictures to prove it.

Great way to get a taste of New York.
Sat, Oct 4, 08   2:00 PM mikecase Female 50-59 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Having read a review in our local Brisbane paper about the tour, we decided to give it a try. Marc was very welcoming and gave us a great tour around. We would thoroughly recommend this tour as it allowed us to be photogrraphed together is some great locations as well as give us an orientation tour. Marc showed us how to use the subway so that gave us the confidence to use it later. Marc is very proud of his city and transferred that enthusiaism to us. We are so glad we decided to do phototrek and have been recommending this tour to our friends. Kind regards, Mary & Mike. Australia.

My husband and I had a blast on our personal photo tour! And the pictures turned out great! We were there for such a short period of time and this tour allowed us to see everything we wanted. It was a blast. Thanks!

Perfect Way to See Manhattan!
Sat, Sep 20, 08   11:30 AM kinnee Female 50-59 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Our "custom" tour was fabulous - couldn't have asked for more or better! Marc is a great walking partner, and we thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hours. Watching those double-decker tour buses roll by reminded us how lucky we were to be seeing Manhattan through the eyes of a New Yorker and at ground level!

Great Experience!
Fri, Sep 19, 08   12:00 PM sunny6 Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I am very glad we decided to do the Phototrek tour. It seems expensive up front, but when you break down the cost per picture, it's less than $3 per picture. And it was probably less than that because Marc took more than the advertised number of pics! And we have all pics on a CD so we have them forever! Marc is great! He gave us three different routes to choose from for the Best of NY Tour. He guides you on poses and is open to suggestions. We also took our own pics along the way and he didn't mind. We felt like stars getting our pictures taken by the paparazzi. It was a great experience!!!

Excellent tour
Tue, Sep 16, 08   2:00 PM craigandkyli Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We got married in New York and used Marc as our wedding photographer - an amazing little tour to some of the best spots in town (we went to the Brooklyn Bridge, Times Square, Grand Central Station and Central Park). We had a great day, and had 500 really good quality photos delivered on CD to our hotel the next morning. The photographer Marc was knowledgeable, a great guide, and clearly loved his native city. Highly recommended.

Don't miss this fantastic photo tour
Sun, Sep 14, 08   8:00 AM melmurray Female 30-39 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Would highly recommend this walking tour as an eye opener to New York. We did the 3 hour tour which enabled us to cover a lot of ground. Marc was very friendly and informative and we will be heading back to a lot of the places we visited for a better look. The photos are amazing - Marc knows exactly where to position you to get the best shot - and were delivered the following day. This is our first trip to New York, and this tour has really helped us focus on where we want to spend our time.

Re-visiting New York after 50 years
Wed, Sep 10, 08   3:30 PM ACEOFSPACE Male 70+ International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My wife & I, both seniors from London, England & with walking difficulties,were delighted with the way Marc helped us on our 3 hour 'trek' around the Big Apple. We visited Central Park, Times Square & Brooklyn Bridge & by 08.00 hrs the following morning the disc had been delivered to our hotel with approx. 130 super images. To say we were 'knackered' the following day would be an understatement having not walked so far in years, but Marc knew all the short cuts especially on the subway network & was so understanding with our continued stopping & starting. Not really recommended for the elderly or people with mobility problems, but we would not have missed it for the world--the highlight of our stay in New York! Well done Marc, excellent photos, thanks & good luck for future business. BRIAN BARNETT

Fantastic!
Mon, Sep 8, 08   8:00 AM rydysy Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My husband and I were in town celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary. New York City is one of our favorite places and it was wonderful to have good photos taken to document this trip. No fumbling with a camera and asking strangers to snap a photo of the two of us which may or may not turn out. The photographer knows the city and just the right spot to take each photo. We loved the information he gave us about the different places we went. Highly recommended.

My wife wanted to go to New York for her 50th Birthday and I wanted a photographic catalogue for both of us.Marc was reccommended to us and he didn't let us down.The photos are brilliant and his tour second to none.His local take on New York was invaluable and recommendations on where to eat etc .. aren't found in any guide books.we would never have been able to capture the flavour of N Y,without the Trek Tour .( Marek and Julie Krzeminski ,Nottingham,England).

Not to be missed!
Sat, Aug 16, 08   10:45 AM pybentleyuk Male 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This was our fifth visit to NYC, and Marc our photo guide was still able to show us parts of the city we hadn't seen before. Marc was very personable, informative and his enthusiasm ensured we had a really enjoyable tour. The photos were painless and once over the initial concerns of having to stand in the middle of the road in Times Square it was very relaxed. Be ready to travel at speed with Marc... he doesn’t hang about! He can also recommend a great shop for home made cannolis! If you have a couple of hours to spare, we would highly recommend this tour. Ask him to end your tour in the west village, where there are some really good restaurants for lunch.

New York in a Nut Shell
Sat, Aug 2, 08   11:30 AM Doctor Male 50-59 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Not being naturally predisposed to reading city guides and making plans for touring, we selected phototrek to give us a kick-start overview of New York and at the same time have someone else take the photos for a change. Marc's Phototrek acheived exactly that! Marc knew his city and knew it well. He gave us the typical whirlwind tour that covered all the main features and most importantly gave us confidence that we could continue to explore on our own. I think the winning feature of the tour concept was that it was personal. Sure it was clear Marc had done this numerous times before, but for that time, it was only Marc and us. If there was a negative, it was that every photo was dominated by ourselves. A few with us being a little less dominating might have been good. But that is us! At the end of the day the trek was everything it was advertised to be. Rapid overview and numerous photos of us!

Marc provides a great tour of the city. He customized it to our needs and shared some great tips along the way. We had a terrific time, and the photos were outstanding. They arrived at our hotel the next day. If you are traveling to New York, this is a "must see" tour. It's well worth the money.
