My daughter and I recently came to the city for her birthday and spent a Saturday touring with Donna. She was waiting for us in the hotel lobby when we came down. We had a great day and learned so much. We could never have done this on our own. Without Donna, we would have been walking around thinking, "isn't... More

On a recent trip to NYC my friend and I were shown around Manhattan by our wonderful guide, Erica. What a treat. She was very animated and very knowledgable concerning the neighborhoods and history of the city. She brought home how important the role of Trinity Church was in the aftermath of 911 and even gave us a history lesson... More

We had a great day with Tammie and would highly recommend this to anyone visiting NY for the first time. Tammie was very friendly and a wealth of information and provided many tips for our stay. Definitely worth the money but be warned it is full on, be prepared to be tired at the end of the day.

My 17-year-old daughter and I just got back from a girls' trip to New York and we added a new girlfriend along the way. Marcie was an excellent tour guide, showing us all the parts of New York we wanted to see, but our time with her was much more than just a tour. She was so much fun, friendly... More
