Our guide was brilliant, entertaining, informative and amusing. He was also very kind & considerate to a young girl whose friend never showed for the trip. He made sure she was included & looked after her during the day. He was most helpful with taking photos of all groups and made the tour a perfect start to our New York adventure, we could not speak highly enough of him. The bus was comfortable and air conditioned & there was plenty of water to drink on what was quite a warm day. We would highly recommend this tour.

We had a very short stay in New York and wanted to see as much as we could on our first visit. This tour was an ideal way for us to get our bearings, and by the next day we were using the subway to get around easily, having got a feel for the layout of Manhattan from the tour. The guide clearly knew and loved his city. He was friendly and informative, and the pace was reasonably relaxed. The 30 seater bus was full and we were near the back, so a working microphone for the tour guide would have helped, but otherwise I'd recommend this to anyone visiting New York for the first time.

First time in New York - tour was fab covered everything we wanted to see and more. Two of our group had been to New York previously and still thought the tour was well worth doing.

Excellent sightseeing tour. Both driver and tour guide were extremely pleasant and helpful. The tour guide was very informative and gave us great details of everything we saw. Would never have seen half the sights we saw if we had been on our own. Was a very enjoyable experience and would definitely recommend this tour to everyone. Even my teenager daughter said how much she enjoyed it.

I thought that the tour was one of the highlights of our stay in New York. The tour guide was very knowledgeable. We took it the second day of our six day stay, and it was a very good way to be introduced to the "city that never sleeps." It was a very enjoyable tour.

This was my wife's and my very first trip to New York, and for that reason we wanted the best tour there was to offer. There are so many tours out there for NYC, so we had to just take a chance and we were glad we did. We took the other reviewersÂ’ advice and did this tour our very first full day. Our tour guide was fun, very informative, and friendly. The 5.5 hours goes by fast. I recommend this tour to anyone.

This was a super trip. We had a small bus, and got to see more and hear more because of it. Our guide knew everything, and was the best I've had yet!

Our tour director was very knowledgeable and informative. We learned so much and really enjoyed our tour. I would suggest our tour to anyone. Also, I would suggest doing it at the beginning of your stay. That way you get an overview of the city and can decide where you want to return to on following days.

Our tour of the city was fabulous! This was my husband's 1st time to NYC and my 4th trip. We enjoyed seeing all the sites, the ferry ride and the host's descriptive details of the tour. You will certainly get your money's worth, and I would recommend this tour to everyone that is going to NYC. We would not have covered the areas of the city on our own. The bus driver was a good driver too.

We only had a day and a half in the city, and this was the best way to see as much as possible in a short time. I feel like we really got a taste of the city and did not have to deal with subways and getting from Point A to Point B on our own. Definitely recommend!

This is an excellent way to see new york and take in all of the relevent sites. A special thank you to our guide. One thing that could be improved is for the bus to have a microphone, as we could not hear the guide with the air conditioning on. We turned it off, but it became very hot in the bus.
