Bruce was very knowledgeably and passionate about the history of the park. We went to places we didn’t know existed and saw some beautiful quiet landscapes. This was my daughter’s first time in the park and my first visit to the upper portion. We will be back and I know my husband would enjoy the other tour by Bruce about the Revolutionary times.

Our tour of Central Park with Bruce was nothing short of amazing! Not only did we learn a ton of fascinating history and the location of so many "hidden" areas, we also just generally gained a new appreciation for the Park itself. Bruce is a fantastic guide - enthusiastic, energetic, knowledgeable and passionate. We had a truly phenomenal experience and would recommend it to anybody!

Bruce was very informative, and friendly. He gave our group an awesome tour! I’m visiting from California, and he showed parts of Central Park I would never think to explore on my own. Learned lots of history, and fun facts in which I love!
Thank you.

This was my THIRD walking tour with Bruce - and this one was just as great as the other 2!! Bruce is a real New Yorker with a Master's Degree in History (I believe) and a really fun guy to follow around. His breath and wealth of important and obscure knowledge is amazing. He is engaging, funny, kind, inclusive, and great for all ages. This particular tour took us to parts of the park above 100th Street where I have never been and would never wander on my own. It was very safe, tramendously beautiful (French Gardens my favorite) and definately not flat. I Highly recommend this tour, or any tour of his that interests you. I plan on taking his Lower Central Park Tour this summer! This is a great gift for a first-time New Yorker, or a Life-time New Yorker!!

Had a great tour with Bruce, really enjoyed his knowledge and easy going manner. Was lovely to see the contrast of the places Bruce showed us, compared to the busier parts of the park. A lovely way to spend a few hours in NYC.

Bruce was an incredible tour guide! We learned so much from him about Central Park and New York City history. It was amazing to be so surprised with the beauty of Central Park, and seeing new places, even after living in NYC for many years.

Our second tour in nyc with Bruce, and not our last! Amazing information, and so much history. We loved the Hamilton/Washington tour so much, we gifted this Secrets of Central Park Tour to our parents. They had such a great time and we all learned so much!
These tours are a must stop if you’re visiting the city or live here. All the information is laid out so well beforehand, during and the follow up email. Thank you Bruce for another wonderful memory!

Bruce was an amazing guide. He is very knowledgeable and made the walk interesting and fun. He made the park come to life with his encyclopedic knowledge of the park's history. Now we're ready to join him next time on his Brooklyn tour!
