We paid 376.00 for a nyc night tour with glass roof. Once on the bus we were told by Rachel, the tour guide that we were her guinea pigs for the night to see if holiday lights were up yet. That's not what we paid for or expected. It was a huge waste of time for me, my wife, my brother and his husband. We walked on elevated tracks back and forth looking for lights, crazy... She also was very rude to Juan the driver of the bus. The window in the van was broke to and would not close so there was cold air coming in as well, this should have been caught in a pre trip inspection carrying passengers.

We did the glass top bus on a cold winter night and it was the best option for us. Our tour guide was Tim or postcard Tim as he is affectionately known. Hands down best NYC tour day or night I’ve been on. Tim was knowledgeable and super friendly. I highly highly recommend this tour!
