Outstanding.

A fantastic, informative experience. Chris Lee is an excellent tour guide who knows his stuff. A born & bred denizen of the city, Chris doesn't merely regurgitate information, but provides a philosophical reflection on many aspects of the city, from the socio-economic to the artistic & cultural & beyond. He advises us to think about these things for ourselves & not be passive participants, all the while spinning some appropriate tunes from the neighbourhoods. I encourage anyone looking for a fun-filled, deeper understanding of the 5 boroughs to sign up today.

Awesome Tour

Chris Lee was an outstanding tour guide for our Five Boroughs NYC tour! He was incredibly informative, funny, and articulate, making the experience both educational and entertaining from start to finish. His knowledge of New York City’s history, culture, and neighborhoods kept everyone engaged throughout the tour. One thing that really stood out was how inclusive he was. Chris played a great variety of music along the way, making sure everyone on the tour felt represented and connected, regardless of their nationality or background. It added a fun and welcoming atmosphere that made the experience even more memorable. If you’re looking for a tour guide who is knowledgeable, personable, and knows how to keep a diverse group entertained, Chris Lee is the perfect choice. Highly recommend!

Beyond Manhattan

Interesting tour to see New York beyond Manhattan… our guide Cris was very friendly… I would recommend it… a bit tight on time for the stops, but it was acceptable.
