One of the highlights of our trip
Thu, Dec 11, 08   1:00 PM swpotter Male 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
Having been a fan of the various NYC punk bands from this area it was fantastic to get a nostalgic trip round the places I had only read about up to this point. I brought along my 13 year old daughter and apart from that the fact she had to walk was engrossed by Bobby's stories. Bobby was a fantastic tour guide, providing his own insight and experiences aided by a few props he brought along in his magic punk bag. I was supposed to do this tour on the Thu, but Bobby got in touch and offered me an alternative as the weather was supposed to be bad on that day (it did pour down on the Thu), but the Fri the weather was brilliant and it shows the effort Bobby puts in to make sure his tour is a success. We even back-tracked after the tour and took advantage of the discounts Bobby mentioned at one of the stores we passed during the tour and to try an eggcream. I only have the highest praise for this tour and next time I am in NYC I hope to do the new tour Bobby mentioned, the Rock N Roll Pub Crawl.

Excellent tour of rock/punk history

Very cool way to see important rock landmarks that have been lost in time. There is no way we wlould have been able to find these places without taking the tour. Very well informed and enthusiastic guide which helped make the tour flow. I certainly recommend the tour to any rock/punk fan.

Good background on things you might otherwise just

Guide Bobby Pin geared the tour to the groups interests. Left on time and ended on time. Provided a very nice leaflet at end of tour with a list of things to do, see, eat and shop in the tour region which where very good recommendations. Tour was exactly as described. Though it seemed a bit pricey, it felt worth it in hindsight. Don't forget your camera and your best Rock 'n' Roll attitude. Mike Toronto

I was amazing!!!
Thu, Oct 9, 08   1:00 PM cssc18 Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Unspecified
Bobby Pinn is super nice, and extremely knowledgeable. Most of the people in my group were into Classic Rock and he actually, shaped the tour and the info in provided to fit our interest, but he still covered a great deal of the other genres. My only regret was that I took the tour on the last day of my trip and I didn't get a chance to visit all the local spots he recommends, but I kept all the info, so next time I am in the city that will be the first thing I do.

Some great stories from a guide who makes the area come to life and gives you a better sense of its past. Ours was a really diverse group of people, but all seemed to have a great time.. My partner was only along with me out of duty - he has no interest in music !! Even he was captivated by the stories and ended up enjoying the tour, despite his reservations! I loved every minute of it.

The Punk and Rock tour is a great way to get to know better East Village from the point of view of New York's finest Punk and Rock history!

Enlightening, exhilarating, totally rock 'n' roll!

Bobby Pinn is a spiky haired, animated, friendly and thoroughly knowledgeable guide. He is well suited to conducting this tour as he looks like a rock star himself. I took my 18 year-old daughter on the tour in August 2008 and we both enjoyed it despite the fact that she hadn't heard of a lot of the bands and artists. If you are into punk rock especially I would heartily recommend it. Bobby is very thorough and entertaining in his delivery and invites questions so don't hold back. There are many bars and eateries en route, some of which Bobby recommends. We particularly liked the fashion shops and at the end of the tour I would urge anyone to visit Trash and Vaudeville which is at the beginning of the route. The tour ends at the former CBGBs, now a gallery, and that's also worth a look. The staff in there are also very helpful and friendly. One piece of advice though: the tour is 2 hours long and we went in sweltering heat, so wear comfortable clothes and shoes.

EAST OF EDEN
Sat, Aug 23, 08   11:00 AM thurley Male 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
The rock/glam tour of NYC's East Village proved to be a glorious mix of intriguing sites and informative background stories straight from the anals of rock history. A perfect 'add-on' to a visit to the Big Apple that will provide a slice of something a little unique and memorable that no 'tired' guide book ever could. The guide was a 'Diamond Gezzer' too!!!

A Brilliant Tour
Wed, Aug 6, 08   1:00 PM roblucas Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Individual
I have to say this is the best thing we did in New York. I love the Ramones and punk rock music from the 70's and 80's and really enjoyed the afternoon My girlfriend is into Celine Dion and she loved the tour as well! (She loved the stories and it has now given her a taste for the music). If you have any interest in what was going on in the New York scene or just love your music then this is the tour for you!

A Big Apple highlight
Sat, Jul 26, 08   11:00 AM gricefamily Male 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
We brought our kids from London to NYC for the first time - there's so much to wow them but this was a definate top trump with us and them. Bobby's tour of the East Viallage was perfectly pitched for all and brimming with anecdotes, insights and heritage. Unreservedly recommended for music fans of all ages.
