Tour Guide Dan was excellent. Very thorough and knowledgeable, very funny. Enjoyed the NY and Church history. The cathedral is beautiful, and the smaller neighborhood setting was preferable to large crowds. Perfect for a to-do before roaming Little Italy for dinner.

The guide was interesting and he knew a lot of facts. You basically stand in a graveyard and hear about the history which I liked but then when it came to the catacombs it was really just a basement

The tour guide was well educated on the church and the history of the area and was very entertaining. Even my 14 year old daughter enjoyed the tour. I wish we were able to spend more time in the catacombs but Covid restrictions didn’t allow us. It was still great, nonetheless!
