Really interesting tour, well worth going on - We had a very informative tour by Rhiannon, who was very knowledgable about all aspects of Grand Central Station. We really enjoyed the 90 min tour and would highly recommend it.

Worth the price to go! - We learned SO much from this tour, and are really happy we decided to go. It only took 1 1/2 hrs but was jam-packed with information.

Great tour of the station - Really interesting look at Grand Central Terminal. Joe was our guide and he was knowledgeable, informative and entertaining. We probably would not have gone to the Terminal without scheduling the tour but we’re glad we did. There are lots of shops and eateries which makes it a great place to spend some time if the weather is bad.

Very enjoyable - Joe was a great guide, full of knowledge and with a great way of putting it over. Although there are some ramps and steps the tour is easy walking and my wife (who isn't as big a train fan as me) really enjoyed the tour. The only problem we had was in finding the start point as we'd entered Grand Central at a lower level but station staff and police were very good at putting us right.
