We had a great experience with Johannes! He was prompt, knowledgeable, athletic, open to our time line and we saw more than we imagined we could see in one day! Great personality and very enjoyable! He is truly a gracious host and a joy to spend your day with!
We had a wonderful day exploring NY city. Richard was super knowledgeable and fun. Really great to hear local history and knowledge interwoven together. Richard shared personal stories and experiences of growing up and living in New York which gave us a better understanding of the City. Appreciated the flexibility in pace and options of what we wanted to see.
Phil, was our guide and very knowledgeable. He showed us everything he could on the time that was allotted. I do think the schedule is a bit misleading. We hustled in order to show us everything on that list.
Our private tour guide, Johannes, was awesome!! Our ship was delayed arriving in port and he graciously offered to meet us where the ship was docked. This saved us valuable time and allowed us plenty of time for our tour. We had a few "must sees" on our list and, he made sure that we saw all of them. He answered our numerous questions with patience and made sure to go at a pace that was comfortable for all. It was an enjoyable tour.
My tour with Mr. Richard was nothing short of exceptional. We planned the tour together of the things I wanted to visit, then we left and he guided me all day explaining and telling me the history of this wonderful city with great professionalism and passion. Very kind, competent and helpful, he also offered to be my personal photographer. Stupendous experience
Monia took us on a fantastic all-day tour of NY City. We saw everything on our bucket list for our first time visit. We went to Liberty and Ellis Islands, World Trade Center Memorial, Brooklyn Bridge, Financial District and more. Monia entertained us with lots of historical info and took us to a great lunch spot. She even help us navigate the subway back to our hotel after the tour. We had the best day in the City! We will definitely call Monia for another tour on our next trip!
