Outstanding tour! - The tour took us into gorgeous lobbies I would have walked right by. Our guide, Jeremy, was outstanding. He pointed out details of the exterior and interior of buildings that I would not have noticed. HIGHLY recommend.

Fantastic tour! - I loved the tour. It was a very enriching experience that allowed me to get a lot more out of Midtown architecture than I could have on my own. Totally recommended!

Put this tour as #1 on your travel itinerary! - The description of this tour doesn't give it justice! The tour is full of history, information about the architecture around the city and its origins! Annabelle, our tour guide, knows her stuff and she loves sharing her knowledge! Even if you have lived in the city or traveled here often, this tour is a great experience. There are a number of buildings that we went into as well, and Annabelle shared about the interior decor, not just about the structure of the building from the outside.

Fantastic tour and considerate host - Wanted to add my voice to the chorus celebrating the Art Deco tour run by Jeremy. Not only is he a wealth of knowledge and very responsive to questions, but my dad and I took the tour on a particularly hot summer day and he made a point of altering his route to keep up in the shade, even taking a shortcut underground to make sure we didn’t spend too much time in the sun. My only note would be that I’d suggest it may be good for him to use a small clip-on mic for the tour as some locations he took us to were quite loud and had me straining to hear, but for all I know there may be regulation around this. I’d still easily give this tour five stars and strongly recommend to anyone with even a passing interest in architecture.
