You cancelled the tour

I received a message the night before on WhatsApp, saying it was cancelled because of the weather I'm waiting for my refund

Operator response

The tour was cancelled due to a forecast of a major storm. The next day a refund was initiated with Viator. Once a refund is initiated then it is in the hands of the credit card company - and they say that it usually takes about 1 to 3 weeks

Beautiful day on the Brooklyn Bridge

It was a beautiful day, which always helps, and Max was a very informative and entertaining guide. Lovely views of downtown Manhattan, Brooklyn port & Liberty Island. Excellent photogenic views of both the Brooklyn & Manhattan bridges from the riverside in DUMBO. The walk is mostly flat with a slight upward gradient at the start and a downward gradient and some steps down from the bridge at the end.

Thank you so much!

Very enjoyable walking tour!

This was a really fun walking tour. I was concerned that the walk up to the bridge would be steep or the pace would be too fast, but it was an extremely comfortable walk. The tour guide was excellent and although I have lived in the area most of my life, I learned interesting new things

Operator response

Thank you so much for attending the tour!

Max and The Brooklyn Bridge

Book this tour with max if you want to see the bridge and the Dumbo area. The enthusiasm just oozes from him for the bridge and his knowledge is second to none. Would definitely recommend him.

Now you see me, now you don’t.

Our guide was 100% amazing until he wasn’t. He was very knowledgeable and a very good story teller. But when we stopped as a group to take pictures of the Manhattan Bridge, he last half the group behind, never to be seen again. Our group was less than 10 people. All of us took pictures right where he told us to and didn’t stray off. After about 10 minutes, 5 of us were left on our own. One of the 5 tried to text him but received no response. We had to find our own way back.

Thank you very much for attending the tour. Upon investigating this feedback, we acknowledge that the Tour Guide messed up. Upon consulting with this customer, we issued a 50% refund as a consolation for what occurred.
