Get a great feel for the city in a short time.

Before we left for New York we emailed Marc to submit our preferred sites to visit. His answers were prompt, polite and well informed. He developed our tour itinerary with our desires in mind and his logistical knowledge of what we could achieve in the time limit. It was so fantastic, we will never forget it! We loved that we were being shown around by a local, and even got a great mini-lesson in how US politics works while we rode the subway!! My favourite part of the tour was when we were on the Brooklyn Bridge looking back at the gorgeous skyline and we asked marc about where he was on September 11 and how it affected him.We were on the go the whole time, but never felt rushed. It was perfect! Our photos are amazing and everyone we have shown them to has been so jealous! He even dropped the cd to our hotel that very night. Having never been to a city like NY before, and having only one week to see it, we never would have experienced all those places if not for Phototrek tours.

A great deal

We only had two days in New York, so we booked the Photo Tour hoping it would make the best use of our time, and that's exactly what happened. Mark was great, knowledgeable, generous with his time, and packed our tour as full as possible. We recommend the tour to anyone with limited time and to first time visitors. Looking at the photos we don't know how he mananged some of the shots, but he did, and we have the CD to prove it!

An excellent way to remember NYC

We were excited to take this tour when we first read about it - the actual experience far surpassed our expectations. I loved the experience. The historical commentary was interesting and being photographed in so many interesting places was exciting. We now have great pictures of ourselves in NY during a magical time of year. I highly recommend the Best of New York - Personal Photo Tour!

Great start to anyone's visit to NY!

Myself and my new husband only had a few days of our honeymoon to see New York and doing the tour early on our first day there really made a difference to how we viewed the city. We had the confidence to use the subway everyday afterwards and stroll through streets we probably wouldn't have even thought of otherwise! It's so nice to be able to look back on the pictures and laugh at how worried we were about getting run over by the cyclists on Brooklyn bridge!! The tour is well worth it for the memories alone... nice! Noeleen Smith, Ireland

He was very nice and friendly and in terms of the work, he is a pro, he knows what he is doing. Our trip went super well, and he even gave us extra minutes of his time. If someone else will be reading this for a recommendation, you can book the tour with your eyes closed. This is how good this guy is.

Fantastic tour & pictures!
Wed, Nov 7, 07   9:45 AM jomackley Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Other
I would recommend this to anyone visiting New York, particularly if it's their first time. It was mine & my boyfriends first time visiting the city and the tour was brilliant for us to be shown the sights by a true New Yorker! Although the tour was fantastic, what is really special are the photographs; we now have loads of beautiful pictures that we will treasure for many years and they are of both us together. We found Mark to be great company and a brilliant tour guide; he was helpful and friendly. I loved the tour and the photographs...highly recommend to everyone! Thanks! Jo, Nottingham, UK

thanks for a great tour of New York
Fri, Nov 2, 07   8:30 AM cc2506 Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
This tour provides a great introduction to the most frequently visited tourist spots on Manhattan. We took Marc's tour as a family of two adults and a three year old, I highly recommend Marc's tour as an introduction to the island and as a great way of getting some great family shots. Marc provided interesting conversation and commentary on the locations we visited and was patient with our son, who we were getting in and out of a stroller for the photos. The CD with the photos was delivered promptly to our hotel. Thanks for a great experience Marc & best of luck. Chris, Kylie and Jackson of Brisbane, Australia

Just Brilliant!!!!
Thu, Nov 1, 07   3:15 PM ttrim42 Female 30-39 International Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
What a brilliant way to see the Big Apple. We had a great time with Marc who really knows his city - plus, he's a great guy. He was very considerate and looked after us well, taking us to parts of New York we would not otherwise have had time to see if we were exploring on our own. We are already telling all our friends that if they come to NYC they MUST book a tour with Marc. Truely brilliant - the photos are already printed out and up in the house, reminding us of our great holiday. Thanks so much Marc, we will definitely see you again when we come back to the Big Apple - although that might take a while!......but we will see you then!!!!!!!!

Great way to get great "tour" pictures
Wed, Oct 31, 07   8:00 AM Jwly07 Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Individual
I enjoyed my personal photo tour with Marc, who tried his best to squeeze in as many different shots of me in various locations in Manhattan as possible as I had a very packed day of activities following that and could not spend more than 2 and a half hours with him. Good way for single travellers to get good photos of themselves "on location" ! You also get all your photos in a CD the very same day after the tour, which is very efficient & convenient as it was my last day in NY. Thanks, Marc !

New York tour with a difference
Tue, Oct 23, 07   8:00 AM William9 Male 50-59 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
A great start to our holiday and the tour fully lived up to our expectations. Mark gave us a real taste of the city and took some great family pictures. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting New York for the first time but make sure you book at the start of your trip.

Brilliant experience!

We loved every minute of the tour with Marc (our photographer and tour guide extraordinaire), and he ensured we saw as much as possible in a two hour time frame. The photos are absolutely fantastic and show New York in all it's glory, and amazingly he made us look pretty good too! Being a true local Marc showed us places we would not have visited on our own, and recommended 'John's Pizza' - the best pizza in New York! Despite my boyfriend being a little nervous about having his photo taken over 100 times Marc quickly put him at ease, and his sense of humour was appreciated. We would also suggest doing this tour as soon as you arrive in the Big Apple, as it gives you a really good sense of where things are positioned and the subway system - the best way to get around. We can not recommend this tour highly enough - it made our time in New York extra special and we have the photos to prove it. Worth every cent.

Amazing insight into an amazing city
Fri, Oct 5, 07   8:00 AM sldarroch Female 30-39 International Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
After an early start to meet Mark, we spent 3 hours seeing some amazing sights, he took us to places we would never thought of going - Brooklyn Bridge, Soho, etc., and provided us with some insider knowledge. The tour is fast paced and heavy going on the feet but totally worth it. Wear comfortable shoes, take along some water and let him guide round the city. An excellent activity to start anyone's trip.
