My wife and I went on this tour (9am - 3.30pm) and it was brilliant. If I had been given the list of places in advance then I am sure it would have taken days to cover the ground. Everywhere was interesting though some I may go back to. Dana (the guide) was extremely enthusiastic about her city and gave us a highly enjoyable tour. Betty the driver was super smooth and precise - Chapeau! What a superb way to have an introduction to an important World City.

Fun way to see Manhattan, time on the bus to move fairly easily from one point to the next, coupled with walking time at the various stops. Joey, the tour guide, was very knowledgeable and our driver extremely skilled in maneuvering through the busy streets. Highly recommended!!

We scheduled this tour for our first full day in NYC. Very pleased we took a small group (12) in a glass top bus. Rachel and Jimmy worked as a great team navigating the constant changing new york traffic. Lots of other tour groups at same location so timing very important. Learned uptown and downtown and lots more

We had a great time. Our guide Don was very knowledgeable and entertaining, and our driver Betsy did an excellent job of getting us around. My mom had recently injured her foot and wasn’t moving quickly, but Don stayed with her so that she didn’t get left behind.
