Simply superb....great experience and a fantastic way to see the city. From the moment we arrived at the mini bus, its really a posh 20 seater, to when we arrived back it was excellent, simply excellent. we cannot recommend this enough, if you like history, geography and general facts about the city then is great value and a must do experience. Both the driver, Rachel, and Jack the Tour guide were awesome, great knowledge and took us around the city to the best spots to have some great experiences. A fab way to travel through the city and see the sights with some good stop offs, Brooklyn Bridge, Chelsea Market, High Line, Washington Park, etc etc....for the comfort of the transport, locations visited and the staff it was simply great value and a fab experience.

Many thanks to Rachel and Jack for a 10/10 experience, highly recommend and both of you were a credit to your lovely City. We even retraced some of the route by foot and went to Julianos Restaurant at The Brooklyn Bridge, awesome food and a beautiful walk over the bridge.

Thanks guys for a wonderful evening tour, Andy, Mhairi and Erin from Scotland

Tim Douglas was our tour guide and Gio was the driver. This tour was terrible!!! Honestly the tour guide put some people to sleep on the bus. This was a complete waste of money and we didnt even go to all the places that I paid for in the package. The tour guide gave very little knowledge and references everything to movies and his personal life. He talked about be broke all the time and made everyone uncomfortable at the end by asking for at least 10 tip to 20 and if you really wanted to be in the Christmas spirit to give him 50. I wish we could have got the tour I paid for. We were all dropped off at a random location and the bus driver got so impatient that he hit the barricades in the street and dented the bus. Please dont waste your money on the trip. I would not recommend this tour whatsoever.

Dear Customer: We are sorry to hear that your experience was not the best, we would appreciate it if you would give us an opportunity to reverse this experience either in the cities of Washington DC or New York and we invite you to see our new fleet of buses and convertible Mercedes, likewise these practices have left aside since new procedures have been implemented for the hiring of tourguides, unfortunately some tourguides as people have a different temperament,

Wow, this night tour was really fantastic. Our guide Rachel was simply outstanding, providing us with continual information as we were treated to the sights of amazing NY by night. Several stops afforded us the opportunity to explore, The High Line, Chelsea Market, Brooklyn Bridge, Grand Central and more. Rachel was superb, such great company and with her wealth of information, and we loved that the group was small and we were so comfy in a mini bus.Highly recommended....such a great way to be introduced to NY. Thank you Rachel!
