Private Driving Highlights Tour of New York (Half Day)

Overview
A private guide and separate chauffeur will pick you up from your Manhattan or Brooklyn hotel and take you on an adventure through the highlights of New York in half a day! You will see all of the highlights of Manhattan using a combination of walking and driving and we can tailor the tour to suit any special requests you may have. 

By having a private guide and a separate chauffeur driver, you will maximize what you can see in the 4 hours - being dropped right outside the attractions - and walking off road with the guide, whilst the driver drives round to pick you all up from the next spot. 

The guide and driver will work together to give you an exclusive and insightful experience of our city.

We had the most awesome tour with our guide Tom and driver Anthony. We saw the whole of Manhattan in 4 hours - Grand Central, Times Square, Meatpacking area, Soho, Greenwich Village, Chinatown, Little Italy, Wall Street, Ground Zero, Central Park and more. Although we had a guide and driver, we wanted to walk a lot too so we were able to get out with the guide, go inside places, walk and then the driver met us to take us to the next stop. Tom was such great and fun guide - he knew everything about the city, he was funny, kept us all engaged, a real storyteller - he also took us to the best photo spots. We loved the food we picked up along the way too. The vehicle was spacious, modern and clean and the driver very polite and efficient. We have done private tours all over the world but this was definitely the best we have ever had! It is not cheap but so worth it. This company is the gold standard.

I only had a few hours before my flight and wanted to see as much of NYC as I could. I felt the guide did not do a very good job maximizing the time we had together and i could have accomplished the same thing with a narive uber driver.

Thank you very much for your feedback which we always appreciate. We are sorry you were disappointed in the tour and that you felt you did not see enough in the time you had. It is important to reflect however that although you booked a 4 hour tour, instead of touring, you wanted to be taken for a sit down lunch at Joe’s Shanghai and then you wanted to be dropped at JFK airport. This took 3 hours in total and left 1 hour for sightseeing. We strongly advised against wasting time for a sit down lunch on a half day tour or wasting more time driving to JFK, but you insisted. Had we known this is what you wanted, we would never have accepted the booking – but you waited until you were inside the vehicle on the day to tell us, so that we were unable to refuse. You did not want to pay for your transfer to JFK and wanted it all included in the 4 hour tour time. The next day you phoned our office to ask for a refund, saying you should have done more touring. We are sorry that you were not satisfied with the outcome of that phone call. Nevertheless, we are saddened that you were disappointed. We thank you for taking the time to share your experience and hope that your next tour will prove more enjoyable and successful for you.

For your 1st in NYC was great. My husband and I saw so much in 4 hours. Sam, our driver was great and Johnathon, our guide was wonderful. You must ask for them. It was the best!
