No ordinary walking tour! - Darren the tour guide made our day. There was only us - a family of 4 adults - on the tour and we had nothing planned afterwards, so we could give Darren time to tell his stories and introduce us to the history of the city (and the best bars on Broadway, which was a bonus). Hugely entertaining, we loved it all. Worth every penny.

Although our guide was... - Although our guide was very engaging and appeared to be very knowledgable, he was not very organized. There didn’t seem to be a clear “tour” to follow, it was more like let’s just walk. When he announced that the tour was over we were no where near our starting point and he just pointed us in a general direction to get back to our car.

Got ghosted by our tour company - The local tour guide never showed up not responded to calls or emails. I am disappointed as my family and I were really looking forward to this tour. Seeking a full refund.
