We had a private tour with Millie who was fantastic and very informative. The tour takes you along the NJ coast travelling through a number of cities and parks that overlook NYC. It starts with views of the Statute of Liberty as the sun is going down (In summer) and moves onto the moving 911 memorial. Millie was extremely patient and we were never rushed. Well the highlight of our whole holiday ended with a magnificent nighttime view of Manhattan in all its glory at night. I really would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see what the city really does look like
