| loved the tour specially because we were on our honeymoon and got lots of pictures together. My husband that doesn't speak fluent english understood everything Marc (tour guide) told us. Also got lots of tips of where to go on our own afterwards and how to use the subway which was veeery usefull. Super recommended! | ||||||

| The tour was an excellent way to capture the hotspots of New York when you're traveling with a significant other. We would never have been able to bother passerbys to take this many photos of us, and quality of these photos were top notch. We were able to get 100+ photos in 5 locations over the course of the two hour tour. Definitely a great experience! | ||||||

Amazing introduction to New York City

| Mark is a wonderful host on this fabulous experience. My husband and I were impressed by the extensive and comprehensive tour...with a few surprises thrown in that we would never have found ourselves. Mark completely put us at ease with his professional and friendly manner and the fact that we have a photographic record of US TOGETHER is wonderful. What a brilliant idea! We would recommend good walking shoes, hats and sunscreen...but Mark was more than happy to match the pace of the tour to our needs. If we wanted to stop and really take in where we were he would give us the space and time to be together. Touring New York City with a NYC native gave us the confidence the following day to do much more than we would have done and Mark was great at giving hints and tips on places to eat (Extra Virgin was fantastic!) and things to do. He also made riding the subway enjoyable rather than stressful! My husband thinks his NYC attitude rubbed off on me...which I think is no bad thing! Thanks for a fabulous, unforgettable experience. | ||||||

Best Way to See Manhattan

| I can't say enough good things about our tour with Marc...we had the best time! My husband and I were only in the city for a day and wanted to see as much as we could...Marc did not disappoint! We opted for the 2 hour tour since we had limited time but in that 2 hours, we saw more than we could've ever imagined! We learned so much about the city too-Marc really knows his stuff! We're already talking about our next visit to NYC and doing another one! I would highly recommend Marc to anyone visiting the city! Thanks for everything, Christin and Ricky....North Carolina | ||||||

Great photos and great tour

| We did this two hour tour on our first day in New York. We were taken to lots of different places in the 2 hours and it was very fast paced but it was great to get a taste of some of the main tourist sights on our first day, and Marc did discuss where he proposed taking our photos with us and gave us the chance to express preferences as to where we wanted our shots taken. We were really happy with the photos that we got. If I recall rightly we were expecting we'd get about 75 shots, but Marc gave us a disc with all of the photos on (way more than 75 - very refreshing when you consider that professional photographers/wedding photographers charge way more but don't always give you all your shots!). As well as taking great photos, we found Marc to be a great tour guide in giving us commentary on New York, helpful hints on using the subway and how to get around, and recommending restaurants and other good photo opportunity spots. We have already recommended this tour to friends of ours who live in NY and would recommend it to anyone visiting the city as a tourist too. | ||||||

Nice guy- ok pics

| This is a great service for folks new to the city and looking to have a few quick pics in front of some world-famous landmarks. The photographer was personal and professional. Due to the hurried natured, the majority of photos come out looking less than professional- but there are enough money-shots to make it worth your while. | ||||||

| This tour surpassed our expectations! Our photographer Marc was great in showing us around, teaching us to use the subways, and of course great in a taking more than enough pictures. We were in some very populated areas on the tour and Marc took pictures so it looked like we were the only ones there. I was so happy to have some pictures of my fiancé and myself together on vacation. This is a tour we will definitely participate again when we visit New York to ensure we have pictures together. I do recommend taking this tour at the beginning of your trip so Marc has a chance to help you orient yourself around the city. We felt like celebrities being followed around by paparazzi, it was so much fun! | ||||||

| This was our first time in New York and I booked it as a special holiday for my wife. As we were there on our own we wanted something to remember the trip by so we booked this photo tour. We were really pleased that we did as we gained lots of useful information from Mark and found it to be very enjoyable as well as knowledgeable. If you are going to book anything when on a trip to New York then this is a must. | ||||||

Engagement Photos - Weekend in New York

| The idea is great - a bit more attention to quality/detail (for the price we paid) would have been an improvement. Quality was more important to us than quantity (of photos taken). Otherwise we enjoyed the experience and have some nice pics of our time in New York. | ||||||

Put on your walking shoes and be ready to smile

| This is a fast-paced energetic tour of the city- although I'm sure Marc would slow the pace if that is your desire- by a real New Yorker. I was amazed at the amount of ground covered in such a short period of time. Word of warning: keep smiling! Marc does a spectacular job at keeping your party as the main focus of the pictures and to do this in the middle of Manhattan he must be quick with the shutter. In other words, minimal time is spent being situated into a pose- so be ready to smile. I was happy that during any time waiting for or being on a subway he showed us the shots he had taken so far, so when I got the disc (the next day) there were no surprises. I thouroughly enjoyed our 2 hours, which seemed like half that. Our pictures-more than 80 of them- turned out great. He took several quick shots at each location, so you will be able to choose the best one. Yes, there were several where either my husband or I was not smiling, eyes closed, or otherwise just goofy looking- but that aside, I still had to narrow down the pictures I wanted to print. I think anyone who wants some great pictures of themselves in New York should book this tour! | ||||||

Great pictures and great Tour

| We recently went to NYC as a surprise birthday present from my husband and we booked this tour with Marc. My intend was to get some great pictures of us during the 2 hour tour since we were only in town for 3 days. Marc captured the New York hussle and bussle very nicely. My husband thought it might be uncomfortable going on a one on one tour, but it was not at all. It was nice to be able to ask questions at any time. It was a pretty tightly scheduled tour, but that enabled us to get to see more. Thanks for some great memories Marc. | ||||||

| We took the photo trek tour on our last day in New York even though the company recommends talking it on your first couple of days. We had both been to NYC before so the photgrapher decided to do a couple of different things. We spent time in Central Park, Upper East Side, Times Square, Grand Central and then walked across the Brooklyn Bridge into Brookyln. It was so much fun and the photographer was very knowledgable. I just got the photos in the mail last week (you would normally get them delivered to your hotel) and they are amazing. This is a really great idea for people wanting some different pictures than the normal tourist attractions. We especially loved to have really great pictures of the two of us together. | ||||||

!!!BOOK NOW!!! Best thing we did in the city!

| I'm going to need more than 3000 characters! haha. My girlfriend, now fiance, booked the 2hr tour, 2 days before we got to the city and are very, very happy we did. Marc wasn't only knowledgeable, professional as well as entertaining. He was a friend. In less then 10 minutes, you felt as if you knew him for years. We felt that the pictures we're just a bonus of the tour. We were only visiting a couple of days, but after the tour we had the knowledge and confidence to get around and go where we wanted without a moment's hesitation. In a city like New York, that's priceless in my opinion. Let's talk photo's. Absolutely brilliant! I work in an industry that deals with photography on a daily basis. His technique and knowledge is superb. He knows how to get the best out of you without compromising the background which is what we, as customers, want to see. For example, when we made it to the Brooklyn Bridge, it was jam packed. But in the photos ... where did they go? Some pictures looked like we were the only ones on the bridge! And it's not like people are stopping for you take photos either. People are on the move 24-7. That is what I call true talent. The highlight of the tour for me had to be Central Park. This is where I proposed. Marc, has a link on his website specifically for Weddings and Romance. I saw the link but never click on it. Funny story, and I'm sure he'll agree, is that I picked the exact spot where he tells the future groom, (usually in advance) that is the best spot to propose. Because your always on the go and close together I didn't have a chance to pull him a side and let him in on the plan. I had no plan! haha. In the end, I proposed and I have stunning pictures to prove it. He also gave us that extra privacy to relish the moment. An extra thanks for that. If you have read this far then your just as excited as I was reading other peoples reviews. They're not lying. He's good, real good. Worth every penny if not more. Because we were there for only a short period of time, the photos had to be mailed. We received them just as promised! Marc, Leigh and I can not THANK YOU enough for making us feel so comfortable in a city such as New York. We fell in love with her and can't wait to go back. Best wishes to you. Sincerely, Jason and Leigh (soon to be) Hotle | ||||||
