WOW! WOW! WOW! My 4 hours walking tour super exceeded my very high expectations! A month prior to my 10/31/24 trip to NYC--I contacted CityRover Walks NY company owner Andrew. He graciously customized my tour requests and made some excellent recommendations too. Andrew's super incredible associate David was prompt and met me at my midtown hotel. Then we were off and speed walking! David is super friendly, entertaining, incredibly bright--and a walking encyclopedia! His immense curiosity and knowledge is outstanding and impressive! I am single travelling solo and David made me feel very comfortable and appreciated. Along the way David suggested other places that we should visit. We visited every place that I wanted to--and more! My favorite part of the day was walking across the Brooklyn Bridge with David! Breathtaking views and exhilarating! We toured Central Park, Brooklyn, the graves of Alexander and Eliza Hamilton, the downtown financial district, the 911 Memorial--and we rode the subway. David taught me how to navigate the subway system--which was a big help to me! Our 4 hours together passed way too quickly! I am 61 years old and have visited NYC many times. My walking tour with David is truly the most entertaining, educational, and just plain fun thing that I have ever experienced in NYC! Now prior to my next NYC visits--I will contact Andrew and David again in order to book more tours with David. I am so very grateful for my "private inside look" walking tour experience with David and Andrew!

What a gem of a little town! It's like a mini Charleston, SC but WAY easier to get around! Stunning architecture everywhere you look and the historic homes are breathtaking! Visited the birthplace of Pepsi-cola (did you know the original formula had 1/2 gallon of booze in it???) Downtown was already all decorated for Christmas. Be sure to visit Mitchell's Hardware, in business since 1898, for a great selection of unique gifts. The riverfront park is an ideal location for an impromptu picnic! We're Going back Friday to tour Tryon Palace

My husband and I took Max's 6 hour private tour around the city this past weekend, and we would highly recommend it! Max took the time to personalize the entire experience. We completely went with the flow all day based on our comments and requests. The tour was all customized, and we couldn't believe how fast 6 hours flew by. Max kept us engaged the entire time, telling us stories of the past and pointing out unique architecture. We couldn't believe how much rich history the city has. We'll never look at the city the same way again! Thank you again, Max. We had such an incredible day, and it's something we'll always remember.
