Brilliant tour - great guide who knew his stuff. We learned heaps about the history of New York - We had a brilliant time with Jeremy. He is very personable and knowledgeable and we had a great time exploring. However we will be telling all our friends to make sure they go to the bathroom before the walk. Bethesda Terrace bathrooms were the dirtiest most disgusting of the bathrooms we have encountered on our travels over the last thirty years, even in third world nations.

A Morning Stroll Through Central Park - Jeremy was extremely knowledgeable about the park’s history, places of interest in the park and answered everyone‘s questions. I saw exactly the sites in the park I wanted to see. He recommended a restaurant for lunch to eat, (Friedman’s) after the tour and it did not disappoint. I will definitely recommend this tour, but would warn about a couple of hills to climb.

Great for families visiting NYC --you'll learn a ton, too, if you live here! - Jeremy was an awesome guide through Central Park. I moved to NYC over 20 years ago, and I took my mom who was visiting NYC. I loved it as much as she did. I had no idea of the history that Jeremy taught us and led us through. I recommend it for anyone -- New Yorker or visitor -- or combination of both. Thanks, Jeremy!

Loved this walking tour - Loved this walking tour. The guide grew up in NYC and has done obviously done a lot of research about the park’s history. He also has a lot of little tidbits of information that he’s picked up during the 8 years he’s been doing this.

Great tour - It was very interesting and informative! End of March would have been better as the Cherry Trees were just starting to bloom. Thanks for an amazing time.

Central Park Walk with Jeremy - Jeremy provided a comprehensive narrative during our walk. His knowledge of the park and its history was evident, and he had a binder of pictures that illustrated then/now.
