What a beautiful, informative, unique experience! Bruce has an obvious love for the marvel that is Central Park and a humorous, insightful, and kind way of sharing it with his lucky guests. I learned so much and Bruce shared avenues for us to continue learning even more. Thank you for an unforgettable adventure! They mean it when they say you must dress for climbing, walking, and the weather. Get comfortable and get ready to fall in love with Central Park in the capable hands of a great guide!
