PhotoTrek Tours

I highly encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity -- it was awesome! With Mark as our guide, we were able to see NYC landmarks that we might not have been able to reach if it weren't for our PhotoTrek tour, and we had the moments captured in memorable photographs that we'll treasure for a long time. Don't miss this opportunity!

my first visit to NYC, our tourguide was enthusiastic, took us to all major sights & some out-of-the ways places. We loved it!

The photo trek tour was the best part of our trip. As this was our first visit to NYC, we set up the tour for our first day in town. And boy are we glad we did! Mark gave us the knowledge and history of the city, and the confidence to venture out on our own. And we got some great pictures along the way! We would have never seen all the different places he showed us had we not gone on that tour! Thanks so much! I will definitely recommend this to all my friends! Thanks again! The Volpe's

The Best part of our Trip! Not only did the pictures turn out SUPER, but we got to see sites we would NEVER have thought to go see durng our stay. Not just professional, but very knowlegable about the city AND offered advise on what to see during our stay. It's fast paced, but you don't feel rushed. My husband and I were celebrating our 7 year anniversary. Of all the events we had planned, this was our favorite. This is a "must do" for anyone. Make sure to do this first as you are guided by a professional with helpful hints on riding the subway, getting around town and suggesting areas to visit according to your likes! Definitely worth it! Definitely will recommend! Thanks for the memories PhotoTrek!

My husband and I were so glad we found out about Mark and took his photo tour of NY's finest. He was so easy to talk to and we learned so much about his city. He snapped pictures with ease which made our time so enjoyable. Be ready to walk a lot which allows for a packed two hours. We love our pictures and tell everyone they have to take this tour. I also would recommend taking the tour early in your visit because he gives great ideas of where his favorite places are. So glad we met you, Mark. Thanks! Scott and Bev

Dunno about you, but every time we go somewhere, we end up with lots of shots of the somewhere, but very few shots of us. This unique tour changed that, and we couldn't be happier. I hate to be one of those reviewers who gushes about a purchase, but we were completely satisfied with our recent tour of NYC by PhotoTrek. Highlights: Knowledge: "OK, when this light changes, we'll have 2 minutes to go out into the middle of Broadway to get the photo." Sure enough, light goes red, traffic disappears, and <click>, we've got a shot of us like no other. Flexible: We were meeting friends from the city for dinner, and they ended up heading to our hotel earlier than we planned. The tour was quickly re-arranged, and we ended in Soho instead of at the Bridge. Closer to the hotel, faster to get back. Fast: We left town before we could get the photos in our hands, but 2 days after we got home, a CD showed up in the mail with all the shots. Now we have to figure out how to narrow down our favorites. Lowlights: none, really. Highly recommend.

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!

We thoroughly enjoyed our photo tour with Marc! He was very informative about the sights he took us on and took wonderful pictures. We will enjoy these pictures for a lifetime! We do hope to come back in the near future though and will more than likely contact PhotoTrek tours again for another tour and more outstanding pictures to take home with us. We had the 3 hour tour and probably could have done more. He told us several good restaurants to try and at the end of the tour said goodbye to us in front of a pizza place he recommended and boy was it the best pizza we have ever eaten! This is definetely a tour to take to see the sights and have pictures taken with your entire party in them!!! We highly recommend to everyone traveling to the Big Apple!!!

My daughter and I took this tour which was great! .. It was great way to see a lot of NY in a short period of time with a tour guide who knows where to snap all the pictures. Our guide was knowledgeable about NY pointing out different trivia facts along the way .. He gave us suggestions for dinner in the city .. suggestions of other things we should not miss while in NY. I highly recommend the tour!

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.

This tour was fabulous from beginning to end. The tour guide was professional, knowledgeable and fun. He made wonderful suggestions about the places to see in New York and then personalized the tour with beautiful pictures of us at the places we visited. We covered a great deal of the city with ease and it was one of the most exciting and unique tours we have ever experienced. We would definitely do it again.

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!

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!!!

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.

I booked this tour late and was only able to get a time slot at the end of our trip. I highly recommend that you take this tour!!! But take it at the beginning of your stay if you are new to NY. Our guide/photographer Marc was a wealth of information about the city as well as the bus lines, subways, etc. things you really need to know in traveling about the city. We saws lots, and over 130+ pictures taken of my daughter and I - not just my daughter!!! LOVE the idea and it was that and more!!!!
