We had visited WTC memorial about 5 years ago (unguided). So thankful we returned with this professional yet personal tour guide (Robert). He was very knowledgeable, friendly and passionate about this tour. He helped us to not just learn, but to understand, so we took home several helpful perspectives of the memorial that we will not soon forget.

We had Robert as our tour guide recently and it was above all expectations we had! He is very knowledgeable about all NYC facts and is a very personable person. Would definitely recommend using his tours for your visit to New York.

Robert provided an excellent guided tour providing commentary we had not heard or read about before. He is well spoken and has an interesting perspective of this point in time. Well worth having him be your guide. I was very moved by some of the things I heard involving people and the events on that day. Robert did not rush us and also provided guidance on how the site should be treated as a respected memorial not just a tourist site. I appreciated that knowledge and hope others do as well. If I come back to NYC I will definitely do another one of the tours yestoursnyc offers. Thank you for a great tour Robert. Shannon K. From Calgary, AB. Canada
