BREAKING NEWS - This Top Dog Tour was GREAT! - What an interesting and informative tour! Christine was a great guide, taking us to The Hearst Building, The Ed Sullivan Theater, BlackRock and 30 Rock, among others. She was knowledgeable about the early publishing industry and the rise of radio and television in NYC. Highly recommend!

C'est très informatif, pas de visite à l'intérieur des sites. juste les facades des buildings - The tour is very interesting but we expected to go inside the buildings, At the end it is a lot of history around the building. It was not interesting for the kids (Teenagers). And only in English as all tours.
