Chris, our guide was fantastic! Really informative and funny. We left with lots of great recommendations for shows. Tripadvisor did send us the wrong location to meet our guide at though, so that needs to be ironed out between Tripadvisor and Experience First. Overall a great experience! Thanks Chris!

Chris was an absolutely incredible tour guide. His stories throughout the tour were not only informative but also very engaging. He was very helpful and knew his crowd. The tour was a lot of fun and definitely one of the best experiences we’ve had here in New York City.
