Meghan was a great guide. Our family enjoyed the tour and Meghan was polite, considerate and knowledgeable. She was kind enough to even hold our daughter's hand through the tour.

We had an excellent tour with our knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide Meghan Sara. We all arrived at the designated location early and she was all smiles and ready to start our adventure. As native New Yorkers, we still had so much to learn from our extremely well prepared guide. Our walking tour began near the municipal building , City Hall and took us to the Seaport, Wall Street , Bowling Green,The World War II and Korean War Memorials. We ended walking through the beautiful Liberty Park overlooking the Sept 11th Memorial fountains. We would highly recommend this tour , this tour company and our wonderful tour guide.
