This was very enjoyable. I also liked getting a list of other sample sales that day, so I could do a little more shopping on my own.

This tour took us to several designer showrooms and we were given the privilege of buying one of a kind designs for wholesale prices! Our guide was excellent and very energetic. She even helped us get tickets for "Hair" in the Park. Super tour and guide!

I have been to NYC many times and this was my first tour. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and spent way too much money!! Our tour guide was delightful and very knowledgeable. I would recommend this to anyone.

We had a wonderful guide to take us around the garment district. Full of ideas and excellent taste. We enjoyed her company. She is a keeper for your company, she is an asset.

Can I give this tour five stars? How about ten? If you even remotely enjoy shopping, schedule your Garment Center Insider Shopping Tour NOW. This is a highly personalized, absolutely amazing insider peek into the garment district of NYC. You will not only see the cutting edge of fashion, you will also meet wonderful designers in their showrooms who take their creative passion and transform it into salable beauty on a daily basis. And best of all, plan on shopping along the entire tour. So many gorgeous and sumptuous choices, I walked away with an armload of shockingly affordable decadent pieces.
Your guide will be a licensed tour guide, stringent licensing test, with an insider knowledge of the ins and outs of the premier garment center of the US.
I had a bit of an unusual experience as it was only me, the other four scheduled missed their plane, and the owner. It was truly a one-of-a-kind experience. I will definitely be back for more tours when I am back in the city. If you're in New York for even just a day, make sure to put this tour on your schedule.
The tour was tons of fun. Our guide was great. We actually bought several items on the trip and would recommend anyone thinking of doing this tour to definitely do it!!!

My sister and I really enjoyed the visit to many places that we didn't even know existed. The tour guide was excellent and very knowledgeable about the subject.

Definitely worth doing IF you're slim. I found some great items, but they weren't the right sizes for my friend.

We enjoyed the tour and our guide. We weren't interested in the shopping, so we can't rank that, but we really wanted to get a feel for the garment district and all the stores and studios associated with it. We would have loved to have a few suggestions for fabric shopping. The trim shop was wonderful. Our guide was very energetic and informative. Thanks!

I was very displeased with the tour taken. I do not feel any value for the money spent, a total waste of time and resources. The only stop worth anything was a warehouse open to the public. Not only did we buy 1 item, the other people on the tour were not buying either. The only good thing I can say, the weather was beautiful.
