Our family of four (including our two daughters, 7 & 9) did a five hour tour by foot and subway. Our guide Tammy was fantastic. She took us everywhere on our list and more. She also knew where to get good food, which we could really appreciate. And we also took a couple breaks at playgrounds in parks along the way to give our kiddos some time to play. Bottom line - we could not have seen so much of the city without doing this tour. It was comforting to have an expert guide us. I feel like I know a lot more about Manhattan and how the city is laid out now. It’s a great tour to take on your first day so you can decide what to explore more in depth on your own later!

We booked this tour for our first day in New York. Tammi was great and took us to the places we wanted to see. She showed us how to use the subway and had lots of local knowledge. A great tour if you are short of time or want to get your New York bearings.
