- Frequently Asked Questions:
- How will I get around the city?
- Most of the tour will require a good deal of walking, however, because the tours are exclusive to your group, you can and will go at a pace that you are comfortable with. There may be occasions when you will need to go from one part of NYC to another (Times Square to the Brooklyn Bridge). The most efficient way to travel is by subway ($2.75 per person, per ride). If you prefer a cab this can be arranged (no more than 4 people to a cab). The cost will be at the expense of the group, usually about $10 - $15 from most points within Manhattan. If you do take a subway ride, this will be documented as part of the New York City experience.
- How will I receive my photos?
- Your photos will be delivered via zip-file and photo gallery no later than 48 hours after your tour.

New York photos - Marc was very professional on the shoot. And he had lots of patience with us since my husband was working while talking pictures. He showed us how to take the subway and took us to great places on the photo shoot. Thanks again Marc. We will get the same package again definitely

Perfect choice - We had such an amazing 2 hrs with. Kennedy our photographer and tour guide. Such a lovely gent. Picked us up just off Times Square and took us on a wonderful and informative walk around the sights. Also help us understand the subway making the rest of our hols less stressful. Kennedy knew how to take a good photo aswell!!! After 48 hrs we received some beautiful photos. It was a perfect souvenir of our trip , best way to get photos together without having to find people to take them.
Cant recommend this activity high enough.

Subway Education, Personal Photographer and Tour! Who Could Ask for More!? - Marc Samuels, Photo Trek Tours is indead the first tour everyone should take when they first get to NYC!! He gave us a wonderful tour including Time Square, SOHO, and The Brooklyn Bridge! We rode and he educated us on traveling via subway. He took many photos and was very professional, easy to talk to and very knowledgeable!! Worth every penny and more!! Be prepared to walk, talk and be awed!!!

He hit the Marc! - My husband and I wanted more than just selfies on our trip to NYC.
Marc Samuels at PhotoTrek Tours was amazing. He was a true New Yorker. We appreciated his knowledge of the city, subway tutorial, and great food and entertainment recommendations. He knew the best photo spots and was patient to wait for the perfect time to take the picture to make it seem like we were the only ones there (we both know that wasn't the case).
He took pictures with our phones as well, so we had instant gratification. He also emailed us with the entire photo catalog within 24 hours.
Thank you, Marc. This was a great experience!

The best way to see the city - Of all the experiences we had in NYC this was one of, if not THE, best. Kennedy was super friendly, knowledgable and a true professional. I've told all my friends this is something you can't miss if you visit New York. We were taken to various places of interest in the city, given lots of useful information and, in to the bargain, we also have heaps of lovely family photos we would never have taken (or been capable of taking) ourselves.
Thanks Kennedy, if you ever happen to be in Tuscany and still have our number we're always good for an aperitivo!

Great Experience, this was our 2nd time doing this - We did a tour with Marc 13 years ago and I had coordinated to propose to my finance. Fast forward 13 years and we decided to do the tour again with Marc and our two children. Marc does a great job doing the tour and taking the pictures, would highly recommend it!

Christmas in NYC - Marc is phenomenal! I genuinely cannot say enough good things about my experience. He was so easy to get along with and made me feel at ease so I could be myself as he took pictures. He listened to what I wanted and was quick to take pictures without making it look or feel staged or overly-posed. The best part is he is very accommodating. Thank you, Marc!
