En port til Lady Liberty og en familievenlig park. Beliggende på den sydligste spids af Manhattan står Battery Park som en historisk perle og en port til et af USAs mest ikoniske symboler, Frihedsgudinden. Ud over dens historiske betydning byder parken på familievenlige attraktioner og aktiviteter, hvilket gør den til en ideel destination for grupper og familier. Du vil udforske Battery Parks fortryllelse, dens panoramaudsigt over den majestætiske Frihedsgudinde og de spændende oplevelser, der venter besøgende. Battery Park, oprindeligt kendt som "Batteriet", sporer sine rødder tilbage til det tidlige 17. århundrede, da det tjente som et forsvarsværk for den hollandske bosættelse New Amsterdam. Gennem århundreder har den været vidne til betydelige historiske begivenheder, herunder den amerikanske revolution. Midt i bylivet byder Battery Park på en overraskende oase af grønt - Battery Urban Farm. Denne fælleshave er en flugt, hvor du kan lære om bylandbrug.

Beliggende på det tidligere sted for Twin Towers, Lower Manhattan, står 9/11 Memorial som et vidnesbyrd om den amerikanske ånds modstandskraft og styrke. Ved ankomsten bliver besøgende mødt med en dyster atmosfære, respektfuldt opretholdt for at ære minderne om de næsten 3.000 uskyldige liv, der mistede den skæbnesvangre dag. Det første syn, der møder besøgende, er de to reflekterende pools, hver en hektar store, og optager fodsporene fra de originale tårne. New York City er en smeltedigel af kulturer og ikoniske vartegn, men dette sted har dyb betydning for amerikanere og besøgende fra hele verden. Dette gribende websted tjener som en højtidelig påmindelse om de tragiske begivenheder, der udspillede sig den 11. september 2001, da World Trade Center blev angrebet af terrorister. Vi inviterer dig, dine venner og familiemedlemmer til at tage på en meningsfuld rejse til 9/11-mindesmærket, hvor de kan vise deres respekt til ofrene og finde trøst i den ånd af enhed, der opstod i kølvandet.

Elmer was our driver and he was willing to take us wherever we wanted to go. We tailored the tour to what we wanted to see the most.
Eddie was awesome! He was so accommodating and took us to all the hotspots and gave us ample time to get off and take photos. The company was also very nice to confirm the appointment beforehand and organize a car seat for our 2 year old. If you just want a nice, relaxing vibe to see some must-see sites and get off and explore, choose them :)
This is our very first time traveling to NYC. We stayed in Midtown NY. Eddie our driver and tour guide was absolutely amazing! We booked a private tour and so glad we did! Eddie was patient, kind & friendly, trusting, a safe driver, accommodating, and knew his way around and thru this traffic. If ever and when visiting NY, ask for Eddie as your tour guide, you won’t regret it!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re honored you chose us for your very first trip to NYC and thrilled to hear that Eddie made it such a memorable one. Our private tours are designed for exactly this kind of experience—personalized, stress-free, and led by knowledgeable, friendly professionals who truly know the city. Your kind words about Eddie’s patience, safety, and expertise mean a lot to us, and they help future travelers feel confident booking with us. We’d love to welcome you back on your next visit to New York!
This is the first time I’ve had to give a 1 star rating for a Viator sponsored tour. We are used Viator all over the world and have always have outstanding tour companies. Unfortunately this was not the case with this tour. There was no confirmation text or email sent by the tour company. On the morning of our private tour the tour guide did not show up. After several calls with the tour company and their promising they would get back to us they never did. I had to continue calling and finally just had cancelled this tour. Needless to say our morning was ruined and we had to go about New York on our own. I would not recommend “Happy Shuttles Tour.”
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the experience you described—this is not the level of service we aim to provide our valued customers, and we fully understand how disappointing and disruptive this must have been, especially during a visit to New York City. You are absolutely right to expect clear confirmation, timely communication, and a reliable, professional guide. The lack of confirmation, the missed pickup, and the breakdown in follow-up are serious service gaps, and we take full responsibility for them. These are loopholes in our process that we are actively addressing by strengthening our confirmation system, improving same-day communication protocols, and reinforcing accountability with our operations and driver teams to ensure this does not happen again. While this experience does not reflect the standard of service we are known for or that many of our guests consistently enjoy, we understand that trust is built on reliability—especially for private tours. For future guests reading this, please know that we are committed to delivering punctual, well-communicated, and personalized tours that allow you to enjoy NYC stress-free and with confidence. We truly regret that your morning was affected and appreciate you bringing this to our attention, as it helps us improve. Should you ever consider giving us another opportunity, we would be grateful for the chance to provide the high-quality experience you expected and deserved.
We did not get the experience we signed up for. After waiting 30 minutes for our tour guide to show up, we called and were told there was a "miscommunication." They were kind enough to find a "driver" who drove us around as we told him what the tour was supposed to consist of. He was a local person and stopped so we could see some of the sights. He was obviously just filling in for whomever was supposed to tour. He was nice, but, the experience was not as listed.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We sincerely apologize that the tour did not meet your expectations and that there was a miscommunication regarding your scheduled guide. This is not the experience we want any of our guests to have, especially for a tour that is meant to be seamless, well-organized, and led by a fully prepared guide. While we’re glad our team was able to quickly arrange a local driver so your time wasn’t completely lost, we understand that this was not the service you signed up for, nor was it delivered as listed. That gap between expectation and execution is something we take very seriously. We are actively addressing these operational and communication issues by tightening scheduling procedures, improving real-time coordination, and ensuring that assigned guides are fully briefed and confirmed ahead of every tour. For future guests reading this review, our goal is to provide professionally guided, thoughtfully planned tours that highlight the best of the city without stress or uncertainty. Many of our customers choose us for our personalized service, knowledgeable guides, and reliability—and we are committed to making sure every tour reflects that standard. We truly appreciate your honest feedback, as it helps us improve. We regret that this experience fell short and are taking steps to ensure our guests receive the quality and consistency they deserve moving forward.
Where do I start. Talked to Eddie the owner the day before trip to confirm everything. Landed at 9:10 AM call to say we arrived for 10AM pick-up. The lady that answer the phone did not have a clue about our reservation. Said she would contact Eddie. Called again at 9:55 and the lady that answered said no one contacted you yet? Said we should probably cancel and ask for a refund. I said no way get me in contact with Eddie. Tried calling him on Whatapp and he never answered his phone. Then a driver (Chris) called said he would be there in 10 minutes. He showed up a half hour later. Got in the van and Chris did not have a clue what our itinerary was. I had to provide a copy that I had printed out. At best Chris was a very good Uber driver. In his broken english gave no information about the city and barely was able to answer any questions we had. Viator has been no help what's so ever in trying to get a refund for this disaster.
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize for the frustration and disappointment you experienced—this is not the standard of service we strive to provide, and we fully understand how unacceptable this situation was, especially after confirming details in advance and arriving for a scheduled pickup. The breakdowns you described—including the lack of reservation awareness, poor internal communication, delayed pickup, and a driver arriving without itinerary knowledge—highlight serious operational gaps. We take full responsibility for these failures. They do not reflect how our tours are intended to operate nor the level of professionalism our customers should expect when booking with us. We are actively addressing these loopholes by reinforcing our reservation management system, ensuring all staff have real-time access to booking details, improving direct communication between management, dispatch, and drivers, and requiring drivers assigned to tours to be fully briefed and prepared before pickup. Additionally, we are reviewing our phone and messaging response protocols to prevent missed or delayed communications. While we regret that your experience felt more like a basic ride than a guided tour, we want future guests reading this to know that our goal is to deliver organized, informative, and personalized experiences led by knowledgeable professionals who are prepared and on time. Many of our guests choose us for private, stress-free tours, and we are committed to restoring and maintaining that trust. We truly appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve, and we are taking concrete steps to ensure this does not happen again.
Great tour and Christopher was a fantastic guide. Showed us New York as a local. Things we would have never seen on our own.
Thank you so much, Deborah, for the wonderful 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear that you had a great experience and that Christopher truly made the tour special by showing you NYC through a local's eyes. Providing those unique, often-missed sights is exactly what we aim for. We appreciate your high recommendation and hope to welcome you back on another tour soon! Happy Shuttle Tours Team
This private tour while in New York for the first time was great! Our driver Chris was very friendly and accommodating. He was also an excellent driver and handled the crazy traffic brilliantly. He made sure we saw everything we wanted to see and more. We highly recommend this tour!
Hi Julie Thank you so much for the fantastic 5-star review! We're thrilled that our Half Day Private Tour was such a great way for you to see New York City for the first time. We're especially proud of Chris—it's great to hear that his friendliness, accommodating nature, and ability to handle the "crazy traffic brilliantly" made your experience so positive. Making sure you see everything you want (and more!) is always the goal. We truly appreciate your high recommendation and hope you had a wonderful first trip to NYC! 🗽Happy Shuttle Tours
Our guide was very nice and brought drinks and snacks. Just note this tour isn’t an actual tour with a knowledgeable guide. It’s a driver who takes you to sights for photographs. We went to Jersey and took pics of Manhattan. No history provided, recommendations given, or tour through Manhattan neighborhoods. This is a great 1/2 day if you are looking for a driver who will take you to great views looking back at the city and to see a bit of Jersey. But if you want a tour from a tour guide, this is not it.
Hello Traveler. Thank you very much for taking the time to share your honest feedback about your recent sightseeing tour with us, and for the kind words about your guide and the snacks and drinks provided! We are sorry to hear that the experience didn't fully meet your expectations for a traditional, in-depth historical tour, and we appreciate you clarifying the tour's style for other travelers. We want to clarify the design and focus of this particular Sightseeing Overview tour: Our primary goal with this 4-5 hour itinerary is to maximize the number of iconic New York and area landmarks you can see and photograph in a shorter amount of time. To cover the significant ground—including the incredible skyline views from Jersey—and still see multiple major sites within Manhattan, we structure the tour as a high-efficiency, panoramic overview. We understand that an in-depth, neighborhood-by-neighborhood historical explanation would be preferred by some. To provide that level of detail, however, we would only be able to visit 2 or 3 locations in the same timeframe, and unfortunately, we would have to eliminate the unique opportunity to see the stunning Manhattan skyline from across the river in New Jersey. We are so glad you found it to be a "great half day if you are looking for a driver who will take you to great views looking back at the city." This is precisely the experience we aim to deliver! For your next visit, if you are looking for a highly detailed and historical experience, we would love to recommend one of our full-day Walking History Tours or a specialized neighborhood tour (like our Greenwich Village History Tour), which are specifically designed to spend more time in fewer locations and provide that deep dive into history and local recommendations you were seeking. Thank you again for choosing us and for your honest review. We hope to welcome you back to try one of our other tour styles in the future! Sincerely, The Happy Shuttle Tours Team
We had a great experience. We were running a bit behind and they were very accommodating. We had a nice tour and he was very efficient in putting the places in order that he was driving to give us the most bang for our buck. I also thought the price was very reasonable. I spent hours researching various websites, and the rate was very competitive.
Thank you very much for your kind words. NYC 🗽benefits greatly from travelers such as your self. Also , as a small business, we appreciate the opportunity you gave us. Eddie Montiel GM
