Interesting and detailed. Worth spending a 1.5 hours to learn about NYC history. Why do you make me add words. I said it all above.

Me and my friend had AJ last Sept 2023 as our tour guide. We had an amazing time then. This time I signed up again with my family (2). And we had such a wonderful 1.5 hours with the most passionate guide ---- AJ. !!!! He covered a lot of insider details and even went a little bit over the 1.5 allotted hours. We did not feel rushed at all either. Thank you AJ.

Cullen was a great tour guide for our Scout troop. The pacing was just right for a group of young folks. There was humor for the adults. And we got to see a bit behind the scenes, which is great for those of us who pass through GCT every day. Thanks!
