Derek was fabulous! He really went the extra mile, really the tour lasted longer than we thought -it was great in spite of the rain. Derek was extremely informative and it was clear he loved the city and it's history. I would recomend this tour to anyone visiting the city from first timers or frequent travelers to the city. Derek...

My husband and I opted for the 6 hour AIO tour. We did not regret our decision. I had been to NYC before but after doing the tour I saw what I was missing. I received info on the detail of the building of the Brooklyn Bridge, where Heath Ledger lived, the story of the Waldorf = Astoria (really interesting...

My wife and I really enjoyed the tour through NYC. I dare say we saw most of the highlights of down- and midtown. The pace is quite high though and there's a lot of architecture involved. Don't take this tour if you're unwilling to walk a lot or have young children. Also, I'd recommend you take this tour early in...

The tour of Greenwhich Village with Renee was very good, much more intersting than walking around on your own, getting to know the history and culture of the place. The 2 hours passed very quickly.Would recommend this tour to anyone. GV is a nice quiet area of Manhatten. Free but gave tip at the end.

Despite the wet weather, we were greeted by Renee (our tour guide) with a warm welcome. We were extremely impressed by her extensive knowledge and friendliness, it was a fantastic way to end our first trip to New York. We finished up with another free walking tour again with Renee later that afternoon in Greenwich Village which was equally enjoyable....

We were unfortunate as weather was rubbish, but Derrick was lovely. He had an umbrella prepared and his spirits and energy levels remained high despite the terrible weather. We were freezing but he kept us laughing. He knew lots of little fun facts about lower manhattan and really gave a great local/insider’s view to the city. If I had more...

Hi This is my 3rd time in NYC and this was one of the best touristy things I have done. Derrick was informative and a cool dude. It was so worth it and I will definitely recommend to my mates coming over in the future. I also did the Historic Tour and that was fab as well. What I like...

I did the lower Manhattan and the Greenwich village tour with Renee and it was great. She had so much knowledge which made the attractions that much more interesting. The Greenwich village tour is a must if you want to find out where the best local restaurants are; thanks to my guide i had the best pizza ever.

There were three of us in my family for the Lower Manhattan tour and about 10 people total in our group. Our guide, I think her name was Rita, was very good. She was extremely knowledgeable and gave us great insight to the attractions and history. She was thorough and did not rush through the tour, actually spending two and...
