Perfect tour for an all day experience - I had an amazing time with Jim (tour guide). Honestly I booked this tour pretty last minute, like right before we left for New York, so I was afraid there weren't going to be any more tours. However I found this one at the perfect time. I think we did this on the third day of our trip, and it was great, because this was an all day tour. Honestly we had a great time learning about so much of New York's history. It was a very friendly atmosphere, and in total with the tour guide it was 6 of us. I felt the admission fee was perfectly ranged and I couldn't have asked for a better tour guide. Make sure to wear tenny shoes cause you'll definitely be needing it! Absolutely loved Jim!

Great tour! - John Anker Bow curated an interesting, well thought out and documented tour. Full of history, back stories and points of reference. Highly recommend John if you are looking for concierge level tour of some of the most important, iconic points of interest in the city.

Tom is the best way to bite the Big Apple - My girlfriend and I wanted to see New York, but we had no idea where to start, if we had tried to do it ourselves we wouldn't have seen a 10th of what we saw with Tom. It was a great time and I would recommend him to anyone, he really knows what he's doing, and made us all feel very special.

New York Best Tour guide!!!! - Our Tour Guide who exceptionally knowledgeable. Kin eye for detail and history most people would ignore. Jim was fantastic, he made a lasting impression. His wealth of knowledge, keenness to share his love for his city (Newyork) is infectious!!! He made me fall in love with New York more!!!! I will recommend him for any first timer, regular visitor or New Yorker who wants to know more about the city, its history and beauty. His choice of food for lunch , the pizza place is so good! I can’t remember the name of the pizza place but just ask Jim he knows !!! Great guy!!! Very patience and honest . I will definitely see you in June/July when when I return for the World Cup. I trust his is always researching more information!!!
