Great for all ages and tastes - Really fun and informative. Suzanne listens to your likes and dislikes. Tailors shops to fit your desires. We choose Brooklyn instead of Manhattan. We were Grandmother 78,daughter 50 and granddaughter 25. Diffferent tastes different products. She accommodated us all. Will help you shop as well as introduce you to wonderful places. Lots of fun.

Excellent Time - I was looking for something to do with my teenager that she would enjoy. This was perfect. Our guide knew exactly where to go and what to look for. We walked away with two huge bags of goodies, all vintage store prices. Our time could not have been better spent. I am definitely booking her again next time I am in town, this time for me!

Shopping with a New Yorker that knows her stuff!!!! - Suzanne was our guide for the vintage fashion tour. I wasn't really sure what to expect since it was a small group (only 4 of us). My daughter and I both enjoyed the variety and how cool Suzanne was. I scored some sweet vintage cargo jeans, beautiful sheer duster and my daughter purchased a cute handbag. There were so many other things that we bought but those were our favorites. I liked the ease of how she navigated us to multiple shopping places that had something for everyone. The follow up maps and shopping ideas that she sent us were so cool, we were able to visit some sample sales the next day. I would recommend this tour with Suzanne because she is a gem. Thank you my friend. It was such a great mother/daughter time.

Suzanne is amazing! We... - Suzanne is amazing! We went to find my 18 y.o. daughter a dress for prom. She wanted unique and like most teens, she can be picky!! We went to about 8-9 different stores (I lost count). It was so much fun. She knows where to go to find what you’re looking for and stay within your price point. I would recommend her to anyone! Just let her know what you’re shopping for and enjoy the walk around the city!!

Made me feel alive again!! - Suzanne helping us take the subway to Brooklyn and exploring a few stores there was our favorite part! Found some GREAT stuff and even went back the next day on our own to check out the restaurants and see more of that area.

Best shopping tour in NYC - Suzzane was amazing, we had the best time. She was fun, easy to talk to, and very knowledgeable. We explored areas we never would have found on our own and found so many great pieces. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore NYC shopping with an insider. I absolutely loved our day with her and would do it again next time I'm in the city.

0-10? Cancelled - No Refund - After I paid for the tour (that was NON-REFUNDABLE PERIOD), I was told that most of the sizes were 0-10 and that second hand shopping was not like it was before Covid. I am not a size 0-10 and would not have purchased the tour.
