My wife and I were visiting from Chicago (we've been to NY several times now, but never "explored" the city like we wanted to) and went on this tour yesterday and to say that it was GREAT is truly an "understatement" (smile)! Our tour guide Fred Pflantzer was EXTRAORDINARILY KNOWLEDGABLE and simply a VERY PLEASANT AND FUN guy to be around and to DEFINITELY have as a tour guide (smile). Fred tailored the tour according to the "pulse" of what the tour participants were anxious to see......or NOT see for that matter, lol (smile). In essence, he was OVERLY ACCOMODATING and "anxious" to do whatever was necesssary to ensure that you had a GOOD TIME on the tour. My wife and I were TRULY IMPRESSED and it exceeded our wildest expectations by far (smile)! Fred is a CLASS ACT and I TRULY RECOMMEND this tour for ANYBODY that wants an INTIMATE, COZY, FIRST-CLASS experience of NY. I have never ridden the "on & off" bus to tour a city, and after this.......I don't think I ever will, lol (smile).

It was a beautiful day so we started our trip at Central Park to Strawberry Fields. Got back in the van and headed to the UES to look at the mansions. Then went down to view the Flat Iron Building, headed to Chelsea Market for lunch and finished it off at the Winter Garden downtown and a brief background on the WTC site.

Description

This tour will introduce you to New York's history, landmarks, and attractions in a comfortable, family-friendly and interactive environment. All NYSee tours are fully escorted. Your licensed guide remains with you throughout your trip.

Sightseeing in the Big Apple is a dynamic, exciting theater on wheels, played out against the ever-changing urban landscape of New York City. The guides use the city to engage, excite, and educate while transmitting their enthusiasm and passion for New York City to you.

During the five-hour tour, participants will see a large portion of New York City from the comfort of a climate controlled vehicle. The tour leader will answer questions and point out the sights while participants explore and learn about the city. The tour will visit the World Trade Center Site, Wall Street, The Canyon of Heroes, Trinity Church, and the Statue of Liberty. You'll experience great views of the Empire State Building and much more.

The tour also includes an escorted subway ride from downtown Manhattan (MetroCard included) back to the tour starting point. Participants will learn what every New Yorker knows -- that the subway is safe, fast and the most efficient way around the city. Not to worry, you won’t get lost -- jostled a bit maybe; your guide will be with you all the way. The guide will explain subway etiquette. Yes, there is such a thing.

Complimentary bottled water is available on all tours.
