The Cathedral and its pastors through time - Our guide Anthony was a historian and took us through the Cathedrals history and gave perspective to the experience..

Well worth your time and cost. - Wonderful experience. Guide was very knowledgeable. More behind the scenes than I expected. Staying for Mass capped an awesome time.

Beautiful! - Historic and beautiful sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of this big city! We stopped in one night, it was quiet and good for our souls. I was surprised how few people bother to step inside. It's well worth a visit.

Wonderful tour - This tour was amazing! So much information and a look into behind the scenes. I highly recommend it.

Tour and guide review. St. Patrick’s Catherdral - Fabulous and I formative. Special Shout out to tour guide Ginny!!! THE BEST. Direct access to Alter, special mass area below church and the catacombs too

I feel a deeper connection. - The alter, all of the craftsmanship and the crypt. I feel a deeper connection to the building and what it stands for.

disappointing - I did this tour with a family I was touring with. They thought, or at least they said to me, that it was wonderful. As a knowledgeable New Yorker I thought the tour was disappointing..I already had a lot of info myself and was expecting so much more ..He was a man..don't remember his name ..said he's been doing it for years...really..well I think he could up his anti and give more to his clients..very disappointing..

The History of St Patrick's Cathedral - What a wonderful experience...to have a guide with the knowledge and passion made the tour worth it. The history of the building and the original planners and movers of this beautiful cathedral was thoroughly detailed and quite informative. The tour guide was amazing. My wife and I really enjoyed the day and it made the trip to New York complete.

Good 'behind the alter'.... - Good 'behind the alter'. Guide was friendly, informative and also a parishioner. We saw sacristy, cript and got insider s explainations for the various side alters.

Disappointed despite all the great reviews - Tour Review: Saint Patrick’s Cathedral I took this tour to learn more about Saint Patrick’s Cathedral, but I was left very disappointed with how it was conducted. The guide spoke very softly and only briefly, making it hard to hear or follow. They used a binder with pictures in a narrow hallway, where only the people closest to the guide could see anything. This setup excluded anyone standing in the middle or back. The information shared in the basement focused more on the personal history of certain archbishops, with very little about the building itself. Again, much of this was presented in a hallway, leaving many unable to see or fully engage. The tour ended abruptly near the altar without any historical context or background being shared, which was frustrating. While the guide did a good job answering questions, the overall experience lacked structure and depth. A fellow attendee dominated parts of the tour, talking about her son’s interactions with archbishops, which detracted from learning about the church itself. In comparison, the tour at the older Saint Patrick’s Cathedral was phenomenal, offering rich history and engaging storytelling. This tour, however, felt overpriced and underwhelming. Additionally, as a non-Catholic, I found many references to Catholicism unclear, requiring me to ask for explanations multiple times. I had expected the tour to cater to a general audience, but it seemed more tailored to those already familiar with Catholic terminology. For the amount charged, I would hope for a more inclusive and informative experience, not just being walked around offices and left at the altar to take pictures on our own.
