If you are looking to do a New York City tour and see A LOT in a short time, this tour is a VERY good value! Our local tour guide was Jim, a life-long New Yorker who was extremely knowledgeable and fun. I would highly suggest this tour for anyone who wants to go to the top of the Empire State Builiding, see the USS Intrepid and Space Shuttle Enterprise, have a NY Water Taxi tour of the Hudson and Statue of Liberty, get a walking tour of lower Manhattan and Battery Park, and finish with time at the 9/11 Memorial. Give yourself 6-7 hours and bring your walking shoes!

Doing what: World Trade Center Walking Tour

Wonderful walking tour of the entire area affected by 9/11. Extremely emotive, thought provoking and worth while tour - our guide shared interesting information and stories. A definite must do for all those visiting NYC.

We experienced an excellent 3 hour tour with our guide Tom. Tom provided information surrounding ground zero plus, he told us about the more important smaller things that we would never have heard about via the media. An excellent tour.

The tour would not have been so meaningful without our guide who was there on 9/11. I can't imagine taking the tour without visiting the Memorial and think that being in the group made entry into the Memorial faster/easier.

Doing what: World Trade Center Walking Tour

Our tour guide, Annie from Sam's tours, was excellent. She knew the facts but better than that, had personal experiences to share about the events on 9/11. The tour itself through St. Paul's Chapel and then the World Trade Centre site, was emotional but presented in a factual way. It was actually uplifting, especially to hear the stories of how people helped other people. The only disappointment was that we didn't get to see the memorial; there had been a fierce wind and rain storm and the memorial closed early. However, we felt we had learned a great deal about the attack and its aftermath, and we had seen the small memorials in the Chapel. I would recommend this tour for anyone.

Excellent. Catamaran was comfortable - guide was excellent and informative. Kept to their schedule. Dropped off close to 9/11 memorial which was a sobering experience. Offered plenty photo opportunities to see the Statue of Liberty. Incredible value for money and an excellent way of seeing New York.

This was an excellent choice for our particular purposes of a novel route to Ground Zero and Brooklyn.

Disappointing that the commentator was so biased giving an unbalanced view of the history between our two nations and for example totally ignoring the most beautiful aeroplane ever made which nestled beside the Intrepid and Enterprise.

We enjoyed our water taxi. We got very close to the statue of liberty, which was awesome. We saw New York differently from the water. The crew was very caring and wanted us to have a good time at each stop. The 9/11 memorial is something that everyone should see.

Doing what: Skip the Line: Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island Walking Tour

The Tour was ok but was disappointed that we never got to go onto Ellis Island. We went to Ground Zero 9/11 Memorial instead. I do not think the weather helped on the day of my Tour it was pouring down with rain, so felt we never got to speak with Tour guide much as trying to keep dry.

But feel on a different day would be a good Tour.

Doing what: Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

A place where human dignity is highly valued and emotions are respected.
A must see before connecting with the deepness of ground zero.

The ground zero tour was truly amazing and our tour guide was great. I would totally recommed this as one of the must things to do in New York

A good tour but couldn't make full use of hop on hop off because of the route and times of 9/11 ticket. You can't hop off at Chelsea on the way back, only on the way down. Tour guide was very good and also Charles who took some lovely photos for us.

Great guides, great tour. One problem--the internet stated that the tour was to finish around 12:30 or 1:00 but actually does not return until around 4 p.m. I had made other plans for us during the afternoon hours and therefore we had to leave the tour and then finish the tour on our own after our afternoon plans. The guide got us an open ended ticket for the 9/11 Memorial, thankfully.

Doing what: New York in One Day Sightseeing Tour

It was a very good tour; I think Stephane, our tour guide made all the difference, he is very good. If you add ground zero as an attraction, where people can actually go in and see, that would greatly improve this tour. Not being able to go in and see the memorial site, left us with a sense of in-completion.

Cheers!
