What a great tour! Krombie was so knowledgeable and engaging! She is a true expert who provided so much information and insight into all things psychiatric in NYC. A great way to spend the afternoon.
Thank you very much. Delighted to hear that the Psychiatric tour made for such an engaging afternoon. Very much appreciated.
Absolutely brilliant. Guide was funny, informative, and entertaining. We will for sure be booking another tour with this organization. Thank you for a great afternoon.
Thank you so much for your review. We’re so glad you enjoyed the tour, and you’re very welcome to join us again on any Purefinder New York experience.
Fantastic tour with a super knowledgeable, funny, and engaging tour guide! A great way to get know the city better and learn some hidden NYC stories.
Thanks for joining The Psychiatric History of New York tour. We’re glad you enjoyed it and hope you’ll come along on another Purefinder New York walk to explore more of the city’s darker history.
A fun, wry, and informative tour, as well as a nice way to contemplate the Upper East Side. It's engaging enough to not even need the tour aspect, but then you'd miss all the architecture. I'd love to do the rest of them.
Thank you for this great review! The Psychiatric History of New York is a niche Purefinder New York tour, so we're very pleased that you enjoyed it. 😁
Filled in (many) gaps in my (limited) knowledge Fantastic knowledgeable guide Reading up on the subject. - family member(s) are bipolar Glad to live in 21st for sure ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️
Thank you, Olga! We're so glad the tour resonated with you and that it sparked further reading. We look forward to welcoming you again on any of our Purefinder New York tours!
Tour guide nice women. Unfortunate she did not know her information and read from a book. No stories of interest. Disappointed
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear the tour wasn’t to your taste. Our guides deliver experiences that are thoughtfully researched and consistently praised for their originality and depth, as reflected in our many positive reviews. However, we appreciate all perspectives and we'd love for you to come back and give one of our other tours a try!
A really sensational tour from start to finish with our tour guide Krombie. She is so engaging, and her depth of knowledge and background of historical facts is so comprehensive. Truly a historian, sharing her knowledge in the most exceptional way. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who has any interest in aspects not commonly known and wants to enjoy a super experience in New York. Excellent!
This tour was extremely unique, eclectic and fascinating. I am a native New Yorker and pride myself on knowing a lot about this town but I definitely learned new things on this tour. The guide’s presentation style was very engaging and fun. The tour and guide were extremely well organized. I can’t wait to do the other tours offered.
Very unusual, informative tour. I live in the area, and didn't know most of the historical facts about some places I walk by every day. Highly recommended!
Krombe was such a laugh and more importantly so interesting. She knows so much about the psychological history of New York. Whenever I’m back in New York I’m certainly going to book another of her tours and pick up her book from Barnes and Noble in the meantime. I really hope everyone who’s considering the tour goes on it!
