Great tour - Our guide was Kevin, and being an artist, he had a lot of interesting insights into the art behind this little city. He brought us to small highlights within buildings that most people miss.

Great Tour - Rob was our guide, and he was incredibly knowledgeable. I’ve been to NYC several times but had never taken one of these tours before. The insight he shared about each building was amazing. Even after visiting the city multiple times, I learned so much today that I never knew before. Thank you!

The city within the city - We had a very good time with our guide Kevin. He gave us all the information about the area and showed us some very interesting insights. Clearly there‘s plenty to see and learn at Rockefeller Center besides the Top of the Rock. Thank you very much and all the best for you and Heidi. 🐶

Great walking tour of the Rockefeller building complex. - Our tour Guide Rob was excellent! He was friendly, engaging and very knowledgeable. He brought in information about the history and architecture of the Rockfeller buildings and surrounding structures, as well as added anecdotes and information that gave a human aspect to what we saw. It was a pleasure to tour with Rob.

Overall good - The actual tour was great! Our guide was great as well! Booking was easy until a change was made to our times confusing all of our plans. It was not clear that you book a time to go to the top of the rock that your tour starts 90 mins prior to that time. Be careful what you are booking for!
