Wonderful walk in the Park - Loved it! I have been to Central Park countless times, as I grew up here, but he brought us to parts of the park I don’t recall ever seeing… And he explained the history! Chris was a superb guide. This could not have been a more perfect activity for a beautiful day in New York. We loved every minute of it. Highly recommend .
