What are people saying about New York City

Susan_T, Jul 2026

Top Notch Private Charter

Captain Mike was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and took great pictures for us. The boat was clean and comfortable. He answered all of my many questions too! Weather was warm, so loved being on the water. Would recommend. I prefer a private charter. This is one is top notch!

"The Met" Metropolitan Museum of Art Exclusive Guided Tour

Brian_J, Jul 2026

This guided tour is The Way to see the MET!

Our guide Jonathan was fantastic! He delivered as promised, the highlights of the highlights of the MET. My partner and I could not have been more pleased with our tour that includes storytelling, accurate telling of the history of the artifacts and their context and a personalized experience for our group that drew us all in. This was my favorite trip to New York City, one of the reasons for that was this guided tour. I highly recommend this tour. The MET is amazing but can definitely be overwhelming. If you want to enhance your experience and make it really memorable, definitely consider a guided tour!

Private Central Park Pedicab Tour

Gautam_R, Jun 2026

We took the 2 hour tour...our guide showed us movie video clips of movie scenes shot at each location we passed (over 20 movies), helped take pictures, and gave us interesting historical information. The 2 hour tour is comprehensive and really satisfying !!!

All-Access 9/11: Ground Zero Tour, Memorial and Museum, One World Observatory

Mary_M, Jun 2026

Must see Museum and tour in NYC

This was an excellent tour. Ross provided a personalized experience and thoughtful insight to the 9/11 Memorial and surrounding area. He was thorough in explaining the history of the memorial's development and execution. I would highly recommend taking this tour to bring context to this historic and horrific event. The Museum is outstanding and was well done. Everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime to honor and reflect upon this national and global tragedy.

Marcie_P, Jun 2026

Would do this tour all over again!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing tour of New York City with Issac! He made the entire experience both fun and educational, sharing interesting facts and stories throughout the day while keeping everyone engaged. We visited some of NYC’s most iconic attractions, including the LEGO Store, the Empire State Building, Central Park, and the Brooklyn Bridge. One of the highlights was stopping for authentic New York-style pizza. We absolutely loved Pizzahaus and appreciated that Issac included local favorites as part of the experience. Issac’s enthusiasm, knowledge, and friendly personality made the tour unforgettable. He kept everything organized while making sure we had plenty of opportunities to enjoy the city and create great memories. We would definitely come back to New York City and would specifically ask for Issac as our guide again. Highly recommended!

Private Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island Tour

Jenn_K, Mar 2026

A great combo tour of two important landmarks in our history.

This was a lovely historical walking tour of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Annie knew her stuff and made it fun and interesting to learn old and new information. A great way to spend the day with my mom whose grandparents emigrated through Ellis Island.

Official Private NYC Central Park Horse Carriage Ride Since 1970™

OvedeLevi_L, Feb 2026

Nothing like a clip-clop through Central Park

Fred was fantastic. We got a great historical overview of the area and he pointed out several spots from famous film scenes. There's nothing like a carriage ride through Central Park, even in the freezing cold – and my god it was cold – and nobody better than Fred to conduct it. Highly recommend!

Central Park Film Spots and Celebrity Homes Pedicab Tour

Stephen_C, Dec 2025

Great way to experience Central Park !

Got to see Times Square. Guide explained the stops and passing bys very well. On our stops, he took pictures of us so we both could be in the pictures. Supplied a blanket since it was cold. His pedicab was decorated for Christmas. Loved that. He was on time and found us easily. Pretty sure his name was Edward. He was Russian, his English was great. Me and the wife were forgetful of his name.

New York City One World Observatory Admission Ticket

Eric_I, Oct 2025

Former New Yorker’s visit to One World Trade Center

It was an incredible experience. I went up with my friends (one from out of town, and one born and raised in Queens, I’m from Harlem NY), and it was such an incredible view! In all my years living in New York City, I’m sad I didn’t come sooner! Watching this tower get constructed to see what it is today is surreal. The staff were very friendly, informative, and made you feel welcome. One staff member took a picture for us at the observatory! Definitely will come again. The weather was rainy, but we were still able to see most of the city and surrounding areas. The options in the gift shop looked high quality and I was very tempted to purchase a hat (big 1 train fan). I will definitely be back here!

Michelle_N, Sep 2025

Best way to see NYC!

We had an amazing one-hour private boat tour with Captain Will! He was incredibly knowledgeable and so friendly, making the entire experience fun and relaxing. We got to see so many iconic sights, including the beautiful Brooklyn Bridge and, of course, our favorite—the stunning Statue of Liberty. It was the perfect way to take in the city from the water. Highly recommend Captain Will for an unforgettable tour!
