The highlight of our trip!

| I took my daughter to NYC for a 16th birthday trip. This was her first time visiting NYC and she knew in advance what she wanted to do---see WICKED! To give her an 'overview" of the city I booked the "Best of New York" tour for our first day there. It was the best thing I could have done. Mark, the tour guide. is knowledgeable and engaging. He keeps the tempo upbeat and hits all of the highlights. On the tour we saw Times Square, Central Park, the Brooklyn Bridge and Soho. This gave her an idea of what she needed to see more of in the rest of our time there. Yes, we both loved WICKED, but we also both agree that the photos and the experience of PhotoTrek's Best of New York Tour were our favorite part of the visit! Thanks, Mark, you do a super job! I highly recommend this tour to everyone! | ||||||

A must for your New York trip!

| We did not want to have to keep asking random strangers to take our picture just so we could get some pictures of us together. We are very happy with the pictures that we got, they look great and we got to see lots of the city's hot spots. Mark was very helpful and he gave us great information and advice. This is a great tour and well worth the price, your pictures will speak for themselves. | ||||||

| We a couple of 41 yrs old from Hilversum, the Netherlands did the tour on President's Day, on feb the 16th. Tour started at our hotel at 8 am and lasted untill 11 AM ending in the Villages. In these 3 hours we learned to use the subway, saw Broadway, Times square, Central Park, Grand central station, Brooklyn Bridge, and the Village. We originally had planned to tour further on our own after we said bye to Marc our tour guide, but after 45 min in the village following the advise to visit the market we decided to return to the hotel to relax from all the impressions and to view the 164 pictures.(on our request Marc made the pictures in RAW using the CF card we gave him) By using our own CF-card Marc does not have any copies of the pictures for back-up or request in the future. We really enjoyed the combination of the conversations with a local NY-er, Marc 's outstanding knowledge of the environment and the fact that we received the bonus of the pictures. It's well worth the price. Do wear comfy shoes and plan this activity in the beginning of your trip. In the afternoon we returned to visit the Central Park as it was perfect weather, and in the late afternoon we visited Top Rock (advise from Marc) were we had a nice view of the city(including ESB and Central Park). Later we send some pictures to our girls in Holland which they liked very much. | ||||||

The best way to start your trip!

| We were in New York for a trade show & luckily the first day we spent 2 hours with Marc. What a great decision! After the tour we had a good enough grasp of the system to use the subway! Before we arrived I had decided I would not use the subway at all. Not after the tour- he made it much easier to understand & took away the fear. The tour was great - we saw all of the places we agreed to see & have 95+ pictures to prove it. There are so many good ones its going to be hard to choose which ones to frame. I only regret not getting our photo with Marc. I hope you go & I hope you allow for the full four hours because that's the only thing I regret , is not having the 4 hour tour instead of the 2 hour! Have fun - I know we did! | ||||||

| This tour made our trip even more special and better still unique as our friends back home had never heard of the tour. We saw and heard about New York from a New Yorker's perspective. Mark was punctual, extremely friendly and straight away made us feel comfortable and welcome. We were shown things around New York that we would probably have never seen or done during our trip. This tour is a MUST for any tourist visting New York. Our photo CD was delivered to our Hotel the next day as promised which was fantastic, such great service. The first thing we did when we came back to our home in Scotland was put our CD on, the photos are just fantastic. There is no way we could have got photos like this had we not done this tour. The fact that it was christmas and a lot of our photos had christmas decorations in them was just wonderful. Thanks so much to Mark for all is hard work and please please book this tour if you are visiting. We have already been passing the word round to our family, friends and work colleagues.We loved New York! | ||||||

| Our phototrek tour with Mark was a fabulous way to begin our stay in NYC. Mark was an excellent tour guide who knows NYC like the back of his hand. He also is very knowledgeable about the history and culture of NYC. He had lots of stories and suggestions for us which we enjoyed. We covered a lot of ground, both on foot and via subway, during our three our tour with him and by the end really felt like we had our bearings for Manhattan and how to use the subway. This experience set us up well for the days ahead that we were spending in NYC. Mark is also an excellent photographer and the disc of photos we received following our time with him are a great souvenir of our trip. He did a wonderful job of photographing our family and friends by all of the famous Manhattan landmarks and we had a lot of fun. Mark had come highly recommended to us so when planning our trip and weighing all of the options of how to spend our money in NYC we decided to have a phototrek tour with Mark - it was great and worth every penny. | ||||||

| Great way to get your bearings of the city even if you've been there before. The 3 hour tour can get a bit long if you're not in great shape - not because of the content, but because of the walking : - ) Make sure all in your group are up for walking that long! | ||||||

You must do this tour!

| 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! | ||||||

| From being picked up at the hotel to saying cheerio 2 hours later. This whole experience was jam packed with information, great site seeing - we covered times square, a small part of Central Park, the tube stations, soho, greenwich village and walked acress Brooklyn Bridge all while getting lots of memorable photos taken - fantastic! Marc Samuels was a really nice guy and very easy to get along with. We also got lots of tips on where to eat, what to try and go and see for ourselves etc. Well worth the money and would recommend this as a must for anyone who is visiting New York for the first time. Make sure you book it on your first or second day there so that you get all the information you can for the rest of your stay. | ||||||

| This tour is one of the memorable highlights of our trip to the USA. Marc was a great guide showing us places we would not have had the opportunity to see on our own. His tours are informative and fun and the photo's are fabulous (which he delievered to our hotel the next day). At the end of our tour Marc recommended a Pizza restaurant for dinner and we were certainly not disappointed....one of the best pizza's we have had. I will certainly be recommending this tour to family, friends and anyone else in Australia. Best 3 hours ever spent!!! Fantastic photo's and memories.......thanks Marc. | ||||||
