For someone that’s been to the city a few times and someone that had never been, we truly enjoyed the walking tour, many photo ops, and especially the dumplings in China Town and best cannoli in Little Italy. Ro was efficient, ready when we were and open to sharing her experiences as a long time New Yorker- Viator has done it again!
