Our tour guide, Ben, was so very knowledgeable...as a life long New Yorker he showed and explained many features of Rockefeller Center that I didn't even know existed. Outstanding tour of the many works of art in and around RC I would highly recommend this tour for native New Yorker's and Tourists a like. Thanks Ben, we learned a lot and had a great time with you!

I am not sure we saw or learned anything "secret" about Rockefeller Center, since all was public knowledge with some research, but the guide was fun and she had done her research, so she was able to share some fun history and details about the unique city-space that is RC.

A fun, informative tour. Our guide was friendly, answered questions, and had a good sense of humour. We had a good time.
