The subways are where the past, present, and potential future of New York City collide in a smelly, drippy, rat-ridden tunnel - in a good way that is. I've taken other NYC subway tours lead by other operators, but Rayn's was definitely the best. The tour was well planned, with a rhythm that was never boring nor tiring, as past tours by others seemed to drone on. Rayn is hilarious, full of fun facts to sprout on trivia night or on an unsuspecting date, and he had the whole group laughing and engaged and sharing his passion for NYC mass transit. I'm sure we all disembarked seeing the train system and NYC in a whole new light.

I’ve lived in New York City for 14 years and Rayn gave me a whole new perspective on a subway system I thought I knew. Small spaces that I’ve only ever hurried through, Rayn slowed us down and explained how choices made 50 or 100 years ago explain the system we have of today. I really liked how he focused it not wholly on the past but specifically on explaining how the past informs today. No spoilers but one of the big reveals was how there’s so much unused infrastructure right below the street it’s astounding! I also really liked learning about small details like why some light bulbs are a slightly different shade of blue or why train cars have a vertical cable between them. Rayn is fantastic guide and I can’t recommend it enough.

This was a very interesting and fun tour! Our guide, Rayn, was clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about the subway system. He shared a great mix of the history of the subway system, overlooked aspects of its day-to-day operation, and abandoned areas (they’re not accessible). Even as people who’ve lived in NYC for many years, most everything Rayn shared was new to us! Highly recommend!
