Kevin was our guide and provided a wonderful history of different pieces that make up New York’s history. We took the glass-topped bus tour which provided fewer people and a more intimate, interactive experience. We were amazed at how much we saw, and it gave us an idea of places we may want to spend more time during our visit. Top notch experience. Thank you Kevin (guide) and Manuel (driver)!

The itinerary for the tour was perfect for what we wanted and Don our tour guide was excellent. Wealth of knowledge and he shared a lot of information. The walking/riding was a good combination for us.

I like someone telling me what I am looking at! We took two grandchildren ages 10 and 11. As expected grandma and granddad got more out of the tour than the kids, but it was just as we expected. Would do it again. The guide was a little glum, but he knew his job.

Our tour guide was Lyonel. He was very knowledgeable, informative, and funny. We were able to see so much in a day. We appreciated the covered van, especially since it was drizzling and cold when we arrived at the tour. Love that it was a small group. My family didn’t feel as if we were hurried - Lyonel was very patient as we took our pictures. Hat off to our driver, Carlos for getting us around. We felt very safe and definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is considering visiting New York.
