Our guide was so knowledgeable and excited about the tour. While there was not as much to see as with other tours, the history provided was great.

We had a great tour (private) with Mandy. She was an attentive and knowledgeable guide with great working knowledge of Dutch New Amsterdam (what's left of it). Super personable. Highly recommended, especially if you have ancestors from the early Dutch period.

Chock full of fascinating information and fun details. Highly recommend if you are at all interested in the early history of NYC. I learned so much, and I’ve been living in NYC for 35 years!

Took a walking tour of the Financial District with Richard. He also combined a bit of Lower Manhattan with our FD tour. It was so interesting, eye opening, and informative. This tour and the Gilded Age tour are A+++++ outings.

New York is beautiful, the places we visited most of 10
As everywhere there are certain “buts”
Some garbage in the mornings or late at night, you also find a lot of homeless people and there are people out there who try to take advantage of the tourists
Something that people are not used to (I think) is that if the smell of marijuana predominates a lot, since it is legal, it brings with it the common problems of this.
But in general the vast majority of people and businesses treat you well.
Tourists are very welcome everywhere, the food is formidable, transportation is very accessible.
Ah! And by the way, the 1.50 unit pizzas are exquisite!!!

Richard was amazing! He is a born and raised in Manhattan, local who dove deep into the history for our group. He had rich commentary about every stop, and was always diligent to check in to see if his tour guests were doing well. He even gave us great recommendations to eat after!
