Jared is the man for Central Park guided tours. - Jared was an excellent guide. He was funny and thoughtful. He took the time to ask everyone their names and remembered them. He was very interesting to listen to and had good stories on top of the general park facts that a tour guide Norman would give. I’d recommend him to anyone
