Reviews
I would highly recommend this tour. From beginning to end Milly, our driver and guide, made us feel welcome and very much part of our small group. We learned so much as we went along to various viewing points which were spectacular and even more so as we saw the skyline change as the night drew in. Stopping by the bakery for canollis was also a highlight as my sister and I hadn’t tried them before. If we ever have the chance to come back to New York we would book this tour again!
It was an absolutely fantastic tour which took in breathtaking views and monuments. Mille our guide was so knowledgeable. She made the whole experience brilliant. From her exceptional driving, amazing factual knowledgeable and thoughtful touches, all make it an unmissable tour. The only thing I would change, is that the tour description did not list that it would be a trip to New Jersey. We had no idea we were going on such a brilliant excursion. I think if more details are added about the content of the tour, others would be as blown away as we were.
A Must See
Our guide Daniel was very knowledgeable and interesting. He was easy to talk and ask questions to. The breathtaking views of Manhattan from New Jersey was worth every cent of tour.
