My family came to NYC for the Hamilton musical. This was a great addition to that activity. Our guide Karen was awesome. She is a knowledgeable and talented presenter. The tour was perfectly paced, and every opportunity was given for extra questions so we never felt rushed or bored. In summary: This tour was worth every dollar we paid for it. I have no hesitation in recommending it.
