Great guide - Rachel - provided lots of tips from subway to history to architecture to pop culture. It was overall a fantastic tour of NYC. Highlights:
Length: initial thought was 6 hrs would be too long but it worked out great. Wasn’t rushed but she packed a lot in this time
Sites: Tour hit the hot spots- Rockefeller Center, Statue of Liberty, Central Park, and so many more
Van: recommend the glass top can for better views. It’s all about up in NYC
Pictures: Rachel was fantastic in setting you up for great shots and had a great system for crowd control
Boat ride: Staten Island ferry was pretty cool in that you got to experience the ferry plus see Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.
Central Park: on edge of Central Park with focus on The Dakota, John Lennon and how the park came about. If looking for carriage ride or meander through the park, try another tour. But exposure to park helped us decide on another tour
Lunch: 30 minutes about right for choice of fast food or market lunch. We grabbed couple of slices at pizzeria which I’d highly recommend
Price: would pay it again
Overall great trip and would recommend. If you want to see inner Central Park, grab horse and buggy tour through on another day. It was a blast
