Secrets of Grand Central Terminal and/or Penn Station - Private

Very personal tour by Rain. It certainly exceeded expectations with a passionate presentation and incredible information. It was such a pleasure getting answers to every question asked. We did Penn Station and Grand Central. Who knew education could be so fun. We went at rush hour which I enjoyed with the hustle and bustle true New York feel. So happy we chose this tour

Our guide was prepared, very knowledgeable, flexible to focus on what might be of most interest and importance to us and had a fun sense of humor. We fully enjoyed our time on this tour.

On our tour of Penn Station we visited several spots of significance within the station. At each location, we were shown historical photos to compare present conditions with the station's past and learned about the historical context of what we were looking at. Rayn had a great personality and led us at a comfortable pace. The earpieces provided worked like a charm so we could focus on the tour even with the presence of background noise. The experience wrapped up after a crisp hour and a half that was time well spent. Several people lingered at the end to ask more questions.

I learned so much on this tour! Will always look at Grand Central and Penn stations with greater intrigue and appreciation because of this tour -- and am inspired to fight for more robust public transit. He showed us so many accessible secrets and was so engaging with my family members. Highly recommend for anyone whether they are long term New Yorkers or new/visiting the city.

Rayn was great! Really knows all about the Subway system and very personable. Great with kids, also. Thanks!

Fantastic tour with Rayn! He’s knowledgeable and great with answering questions. The history and stories behind the stations were fascinating, I’ve walked through them many times and had no idea there were so many clues about the past in plain sight. Wasn’t sure if my 11 year old would like it (she’s not into history/museums) but she loved every bit of it and was the first to raise her hand when Rayn asked if we wanted one more factoid. Thanks for a super fun time!

The tour was a two-hour journey through the history and belly of New York City like I've never experienced before. I've lived in the city over 25 years, have traversed through these stations mindlessly, but given a whole new lens of understanding. Rayn's tour was full of information - quirky, unique, and practical - that connected the past with the present. My little niece and nephew said it was their favorite tour of all!

I've always loved the idea of stumbling upon historical sites in cities. Rayn kept our group safe, always making sure no one got left behind. Rayn is very knowledgeable about the subways, and the tour is both informative and fun. Because of Rayn, I discovered hidden gems I would've missed. Not a second was wasted! I can't wait to bring my friends on the next tour! It was a fun and educational experience that also gave me some good exercise. Truly unique.

Our tour guide, Rayn, was excellent. He was so knowledgeable, funny, and engaging while managing our group during a tour of Penn Station. I’m a daily commuter into Penn and I learned a ton on this tour that I’ll always remember. I’d highly recommend Rayn and his positively charming tours.

Rayn's tour was extremely informative! He had an extremely in-depth knowledge of Penn Station, and consistently dropped facts and stories that were fun and engaging. Highly recommend his tours.
