We took the Art Deco tour with Jeremy and it totally exceeded our expectations. An incredible way to see the great landmarks of the city and learn some history. There wasn't a quesiton we asked he wasn't able to offer something fascinating about. 11/10!
We try to go on tours with every trip we take and Jeremy is hands down one of the best guides we’ve had. Super knowledgeable, great pace, brilliant route!
The experience was fascinating. Jeremy was a wealth of information re the Architecture of the respective buildings & the issues which impacted on their development. We learnt so much more than expected.
Our guide was so knowledgeable and had such a passion for the subject. We were given the opportunity to see the buildings from so many different perspectives and being able to go inside so many of them made the experience extra special.
Jeremy provided an excellent tour of the mid town Art Deco wonders of New York. The route along with the commentary provided a nuanced insight to the history and evolution of skyscrapers in the city and the people behind the projects. Thoroughly recommended for visitors and locals who otherwise could miss so much as they try to navigate the busy streets of midtown
Thanks for taking the tour, and for your review!
While I have known I liked Art Deco buildings more than others, I was never able to articulate why. Jeremy’s tour, in addition to showing wonderful architecture, also helped me understand what is it about them I like. A great tour that includes both the most famous examples of Art Deco in New York and some lesser known ones I was not aware of.
Jeremy gave the ideal tour! A nice mix of the most iconic buildings and hidden gems. Good pacing too
A charming deep dive into the the art deco architecture in Midtown. Jeremy is indeed a passionate guide! He showed us around and was ready to reply to every question we had.
Great informative tour. Jeremy really knows his subject. He gets across his information in a laid back style. Would take a tour by him any day.
Interesting walk with added value from the good guide Jeremy. He knew a lot about the history of New York, art deco and knew the hidden gems of Art deco in NY
