Our tour guide, Mike, was very knowledgeable and went out of his way to make sure that we all learned a lot and had a great time. Many on this tour were older and had physical limitations and he was very sensitive to everyone's needs. I highly recommend this tour!
Loved this tour. It worked out that our group was small. Tour guide Saul had so much historical knowledge about both sites. He knew every detail. He was very helpful and allowed for our slower pace of walking since we were older. And the addition of headphones to hear everything he said even in a crowd was wonderful!!
Mike made the tour fun and interesting. He talked about the history of New York harbor on the way to the ferry continued with interesting comments and pictures throughout the whole day. He really made the tour better. You can go without a guide, but we felt that the whole experience was made better with a guide. We noticed that, often, people not on the tour would lean in to listen. Well worth the price.
