Enthusiastic and Engaging

My experience was nothing but the best and most definitely worth it! Martin, our guide, was passionate and enthusiastic about his city and very knowledgeable. To make the experience even more worth while, our driver Grey was very knowledgeable and taught Martin some interesting things as well which made it more of a fun and engaging experience. There was never a dull moment. We rode in a clean and comfortable Cadillac SUV filled with complimentary snacks and drinks which was very enjoyable. I would recommend this Small Bus Tour to literally anyone visiting New York for the first time and have no idea what their getting themselves into. He taught and showed us things that we would’ve never thought to see when visiting NYC. Also another gem to make you want to purchase this great tour, was that Martin gave us great one and done photo shoot opportunities meaning the architecture and buildings you would want pictured with he already had the best one and done angle ready. 10/10 experience please you don’t want to visit New York without this experience. Side note: Be on time and prompt!

Great Tour

Guy was our bus driver and Bryant was our tour guide. Bryant was entertaining and knowledgeable throughout the tour. His personality made the tour experience exciting and fun and entertaining. Some of his side stories were fantastic (think holding non elastic socks up with thumb tacks). Dave & Brenda thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Some of the spots covered were: Empire State Building, Brooklyn bridge, Bryant park, Washington park, 911 memorial, the financial district including the bull and a ride on the Staten Island Ferry, close look at the Statue of Liberty. Bryant’s engaging personality made the day very enjoyable. We highly recommend this tour. Hope you get Bryant to narrate.
