Anniversary trip and first time to nyc loved it!
Tue, Mar 25, 08   2:00 PM 2schroeders Female 30-39 Local Family Without Children
I loved our tour guide Marc Samuels. He was fantastic! He took my husband and I thru the best of NYC. He took some fantastic pictures with great ideas that we would not of thought of. He gave us some great advice on how to navigate thru the subway system and the diffrent streets and how they work. He was very nice and even helped us with a little video thru a church. It was so nice having our own private tour guide and taking pictures of us. We felt like very important people and I am so glad we took the tour and would recommend it to anyone. I loved his website and that is where I got the idea to use the tour! I would love to come back there someday with some girlfriends and I will remember this place for sure. Thank you and please tell Marc Samuels - Thank you from Bill and Tammy Schroeder from Milwaukee, WI!!

Marc is Excellent!
Fri, Mar 28, 08   12:00 PM lynnea Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I found Photo Trek Tours when I did a search for Tours in New York City. I was initially so excited to find such a tour and then after the tour was finished, I was even more thrilled!! Marc was very enthusiastic and so very accommodating. He is a native of New York therefore full of information and insight. He gave the tour at our speed was so flexible when we requested a diversion from our initial itinerary. We liked the tour so much that I told two more couples we met on our trip about Marc and about Photo Trek Tours. The only thing I would have changed is that I wished we would have booked the tour for three hours instead of just two. I would have liked to have liked to have Marc around to take our pictures at a few more locations and for a little while longer. I will definitely recommend this Tour to anyone I know who is traveling to New York City. I can’t wait until we travel back to New York with our son. I will be so wonderful to book Photo Trek Tours when we have our son with us the next time we visit!

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TOUR!!
Sat, Mar 29, 08   8:00 AM APRILMAYO Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My sister-in-law and I took a much needed girls trip to New York. We had a very limited amount of time and I knew that my sister-in-law would be behind her camera the duration of our visit. Taking this tour gave us the opportunity to have photos together at incredible, breathtaking landmarks in New York, on a limited time frame and with a reasonable price. Mark is absolutely delightful and a very talented photographer! He was wonderful! We got to see SO MUCH in just two hours time, and he even directed us on how to get to our next two destinations! We could not have accomplished seeing all we wanted to see without Mark! It is MORE than worth the money for these lifetime memories of our trip to New York!!! This was the best souvenir we could have purchased!!!

Honeymoon Pics in NYC
Mon, Mar 31, 08   1:30 PM ncgalnc Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
We highly recommend this photo excursion. We saw A LOT and learned some little nuggets of history (as well as NYC specific ettiquette) about the city from our tour guide that we would not have learned on our own. Also, our tour guide was great; we were totally comfortable navigating the city with him and chit chatting during our tour. Also, the Zerve folks (for the actual purchase of this package Online) were very helpful and nice over the phone. Overall, a must for getting the best photo opportunities. We got some great photos!

Many New York Landmarks in only 3 hours!
Wed, Apr 2, 08   1:30 PM pokerworld Male 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
When we first got to New York, we felt completely discombobulated and lost. But when our tour began, we felt completely at ease and comfortable. Our guide (Marc) knew the area perfectly, and gave us plenty of information on all the landmarks and hot spots while simultaneously taking breathtaking pictures of us. Had we gone through New York on our own, we would not have been able to take even a fraction of the pictures! He provided us with over 150 beautiful pictures which included the famous backdrops of New York City. In addition to Times Square, Central Park, and the Brooklyn Bridge, we also got to ride the Subway, visit Grand Central Station, and walk through Soho and Greenwich Village. Our tour was amazing and we highly recommend it to anyone who has never been to New York. Without our tour guide we would not have been able to navigate our way through New York, nor would we have 150 spectacular pictures. Thanks Marc, we had a blast, love our pictures, and definitely are glad we chose this tour.

Everybody Should Try this!

Marc is a very genuine and personable guy. The tour is informative and his insights/tips etc as a native New Yorker we found invaluable. Even very simple things like how to work the sub way ticketing system and navigating around from there. You can tailor the tour to your exact requirements or rely on Marc's descretion, either way your going to be well informed. We had the 3 hour tour and the ground you cover walking and on the sub way is amazing. We recommend doing this tour shortly after arrival as an ideal way to get a very personal orientation of this magnificent City. The pictures are amazing and there's plenty of them. It is also amusing to see the looks on peoples faces as you have the pictures taken, you feel like a VIP they think you are a VIP........... well hey for 3 hours we were!!

Take this Tour!
Sun, Apr 6, 08   2:00 PM sydneyballar Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
When booking this tour, my biggest fear was that the tour guide would just be some guy with a camera, not a professional photographer and that my pictures would look like snapshots. Don't worry, the pictures are amazing and much better that one I could have taken or had someone else take. Marc knows what he is doing from suggesting poses to symmetrically arranging you in the photograph to getting the timing down to were you and your group are in perfect position to catch the horse and carriage driving past in the background. My fiance and I wanted something a little different and special to use for engagement photos (for save the date, the invitation, and maybe even for the favors) and we definately got our moneys worth with these pictures. We took the 3 hour tour and received over 200 pictures from all over the city, central park (my favorite part), brooklyn bridge, grand central station, and more. The hardest part now will be deciding which photos to use because they are all so good. Marc was extremely cool about poses that I suggested trying and went above and beyond to get the shot we were after. All I can say is Take this Tour!

Iconic New York Wedding Shots
Mon, Apr 7, 08   2:00 PM NTShefford Female 30-39 International Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
We thoroughly enjoyed our photo tour which we booked for the afternoon after getting married at City Hall. Our main reason for booking was to get some iconic New York photos of us on our wedding day. Mark was both professional and laid back, putting us at ease. Being typically reserved English we were a little nervous that we would feel rather foolish being photographed, however, we needn't have worried, it was great fun and we got loads of pictures we would otherwise have never had. As we were flying home the next day, Mark was even able to get our photos to the hotel on the same day for which we were very grateful. As we had been in the city for a few days and done a lot of exploring ourselves we were familiar with a lot of the places that Mark took us to, however, we still learnt more about these places and Mark showed us things we had missed. We are delighted with our fabulous photos and the great experience we had. Thank you.

Marc lead us on a great tour of NYC in a way we could never have done on our own. He is knowledgeable, fun to talk with and we received a disc with some really nice photos to remember the trip by. Our family had a wonderful time and we highly recommend this activity. You will not be disappointed!

We had a great time with Marc -- he accommodated us by meeting us outside my husband's workplace, and tailored the tour to our specifications. He was fun to be with, we covered a lot of ground, learned some interesting stuff, and enjoyed feeling like celebs on a photo shoot. The photos were delivered promptly and turned out great! Two thumbs up!

You must do this tour!
Fri, Apr 18, 08   8:00 AM GemmaLou Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Mark is the best tour guide in NYC! He took us around all the places we wanted to see and took fantastic photos, which we will definately treasure. The prices are reasonable and the photos were delivered to the hotel in less than 24 hours. Mark was friendly, helpful and wrote doen numerous places for drinks and food, some of which we went to and found them to be great. If you are going to NYC - book this tour!
