The most important tour we did in NY - Very humbling tour. Nathan our guide was superb and filled us in with so many facts we were unaware of. If you only do one tour whilst in New York, do this one!

Loved every moment of it!! - Jonathan made a big difference for me and my boys. His knowledge of the area and of the significant events of this sacred place was humbling and inspiring. As promised, Jonathan kept us in the shade throughout our walking tour on a very hot New York summers day. It was nice to meet a lovely lady from Sydney too!

A great experience - What a great experience! Our guide was Jonathan who struck just the right balance between informative, entertaining and sensitive given the subject matter. Knowledgable, friendly and well organised, giving insights and information that we never would have known without him. An unexpected highlight of our day!

Excellent guide for Ground Zero memorial site - During a recent visit to New York we had Nathan as our guide at the Ground Zero 9/11 memorial site. This was truly an emotional experience and would not have been the same without Nathan's enthusiasm and the wealth of information share with us is unparalleled. It would most certainly not be the same if we did the site visit on our own. This was money well spend and will highly recommend you as a tour guide, no doubt!
