Heavy rain day in NY. Understandable that traffic was an issue but the bus started and said first place to see would be Central Park and we didn’t even drive by it for anyone to see. Stopped at dodgy corner store with kitchen for restroom stop for 20 mins and then rest of your through Queens and Bronx. Guide Carlos only really talked about price of homes and no history of the region beyond who lived there who were famous. Brooklyn tour thru Jewish area was good but due to gridlock traffic we were never going to make it to Coney Island and back by 3… or even 5 as Carlos suggested. a number of us had events that evening we had to get back for but he was adamant to go to Coney Island even though he said only the hotdog place was open for food. A few of us got him to drop us at the subway , although he drove 4 blocks further before letting us out at 4 and we caught subway got my2 kids some food finally and we made the theatre on time. The day prior our guide on the NY day tour had so much more history and anecdotes about where we were. This was a waste of money and we will be asking for part refund,
