This was our first time to visit New York, we were only there for 4 days so would never have managed to see half of the sights on this tour if left to our own devices! The guide was brilliant, the tour covered everywhere we wanted and gave us the opportunity to decide where we would revisit. I am only back a week and have already recommended this tour to people.

Absolutely loved this tour, saw everything I wanted to and had a knowledgeable guide that was happy to answer any questions and point us in the right direction for other hot spots not shown on the tour. The tour went too quickly as was having too much fun.

Absolutely great, mostly because of the guide. Great sense of humor and a lot of knowledge of the history of New York. Great way to get a first impression of the City and see what's worth revisiting.

Absolutely brilliant! Tour guide was witty, interesting, informative, and entertaining. How he managed to remember all the facts and figures he reeled off to us I don't know. For first time visitors to NYC you could not have seen more in 5 and a half hours if you tried! It would be easier to list what we did not see than what we did. Plenty of stop offs and tons of excellent photo opportunities of all the main attractions. Included a half hour lunch stop by the river, so don't bother taking packed lunch as there were plenty of cheap eating places. Staten Island ferry trip enables you to get excellent pics of Statue of Liberty. Was a bit dubious about booking this online before we went, but am glad now that I did, as it was certainly cheaper than a lot of similar tours on offer there. I would most definitely use Viator again. Couldn't fault the whole experience.

This was an ideal trip to all the main attractions. It gives you a glimpse at New York, and it gave us chance to find our bearings for the next few days instead of searching through maps. Well recommended, excellent tour guide, really informative. I couldn't have got to all the locations in the time we had.

I just wanted to take the time to give compliments to our tour guides. They were wonderful hosts on our New York Sightseeing tour. They gave us tons of information which I was so excited to sharing with my family when showing pictures and the driver was safe and his laughter lit up the room. I had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend this to my family and friends who are heading to New York!

An absolutely fantastic tour providing just the right amount of detail and time to cover the main sites in New York. We did this on our first day there and it served as a great way to get your bearings around the city before wandering around on our own. The experience was made by a fantastic tour guide. It was snowing the day of our tour and the visibility was not the best, yet this did not detract from the experience. Our tour guide adapted things to the the weather, making the experience everything it could be. If you haven't been to New York before, I thoroughly recommend this 5 hour tour. Fantastic, even in bad weather, made by a lovely tour guide.

I would recommend this tour, especially to those who have never visited NY previously. Not to be missed and very good value.

I really enjoyed the tour. Even though I've been to New York before, I learned things about NYC that I wouldn't have if I had toured the sites on my own. I would highly recommend it. Our tour guide was great, too.

This was a great tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and also fun. Not only did we see the sights, we learned a lot of the history behind them and the city. Having been to the city and seen most everything before, I thought this might be boring, but that definitely was not the case. I would certainly recommend this to both first time visitors as well as those who have been there before.

We found the trip very informative, and the tour guide was very knowledgeable. We were able to get our bearings in Manhattan and return to some of the sights as we were there for a week.
