A world class tour in a world class city - This tour is absolutely amazing, and Jon is an incredible tour guide. It is clear he has incredible knowledge of the area, sharing his many interesting notes with us with his great sense of humour too. The tour finished at the 9/11 memorial and the tone of the tour certainly changed, he shared many moving stories of incredible bravery and sacrifice. I've done 10+ walking tours all over the world and New York and Jon is right at the top. Totally recommend Jon and his company to anyone looking for a tour in NYC.

Fantastic experience, Lauer Manhattan tour covering all the key points of the area. - Fantastic Lower Manhattan tour—highly recommend. We covered Wall Street, key spots throughout Lower Manhattan, and spent the last 1/3rd of time at the 9/11 Memorial.
Jon our guide was the highlight of the tour —incredibly smart and on the ball. Jon brought the history and significance of each location to life with insights you just wouldn’t get on other tours. The pace was perfect, and every stop felt worthwhile.
Overall, a top-notch, informative, and enjoyable experience. Definitely worth it!

Highly Recommend for Best Walking Tours in NYC - I’ve been on several tours with Jon, and he is the definition of a tourism professional. His command of the material is exceptional, paired with outstanding communication and presentation skills. He manages to cover an astonishing amount of ground—both geographically and historically—without ever feeling rushed or overwhelmed. Most recently, we did his Lower Manhattan tour, and it was genuinely mind-blowing to realize how much world history unfolded in such a compact area. We’ve also taken several of his food tours, which are just as expertly curated and engaging. Highly recommended—the best walking tours in NYC, hands down.

Outstanding walking tour by Jon - Jon noto did a fantastic tour of Wall Street , the financial districts and a very moving history of 9-11. Despite the cold weather we were totally engaged and he added plenty of indoor elements to the tour to warm up and coffee stops. His tour was one of the best walking tours we have done anywhere in the world. We absolutely recommend him and the tour and our only disappointment is we probably don’t have time to squeeze in another tour with him. The history of the financial district was fascinating. He has a great depth of knowledge and is very professional.

Best tour in New York City - not even close - Jon was the best tour guide I’ve ever had. We’ve traveled Europe and Asia, taken tours at every destination, and this one tops the charts by miles. There were colorful explanations at every spot, delving into details that you wouldn’t pick up anywhere else, without being dry or boring. We asked a bunch of questions and he knew everything there was to know about the city. We even reached out afterwards to ask for food recommendations in a different neighborhood and he gave us a detailed list of must-see places and must-order items. Could not recommend enough. Worth triple the price.

Fantastic tour guide for NYC! - Jon was an excellent tour guide, this tour was a fascinating insight to the history of NYC as well as an in depth look at the events of 9/11. His storytelling is so moving and passionate, and he gave so much info during our tour that even supported the rest of our trip. Highly recommend this tour, or any of Jon’s as he is so knowledgeable and helpful! Great pace, lots of detail, super friendly and funny too. We even reached out a few days later for recommendations and he sent great suggestions for our time in Central Park and we created an itinerary from it which was perfect.
Book Jon’s tour - definitely a highlight of a busy NYC trip!
