5.00We had an absolutely wonderful experience on our tour with Greg as our guide. From start to finish, he was engaging, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the places we visited. Greg’s stories and attention to detail brought everything to life. His enthusiasm was contagious and we walked away feeling enriched, entertained, and grateful for the experience. If you have the chance to take a tour with Greg, don’t hesitate, you’ll be in excellent hands! Highly recommend!

5.00We had a great walking tour in NYC starting at Grand Central Terminal and ending in Times Square. Having a 3 hr private tour was perfect for us. We saw so many other groups that had 15+ people. Patrick, our tour guide, was very friendly and so knowledgeable. The off the beaten path facts were great. Definitely recommend!

5.00This was the best of many tours we booked while staying in NYC. Our guide, Andrew, was fantastic. Learned a lot of local culture, architecture, and history.

An Insider’s View of Manhattan

5.00We booked a walking tour with City Rover and were assigned Greg as our host. He was wonderful! The day was rainy and gloomy but it didn’t matter. He took us so many places, while explaining the history, architecture, and evolution to the current day. We would have been fumbling with maps while he knew exactly where to take us next. We will do it again!
Great architectural and cultural tour

5.00Our guide, David, did a great job adapting the tour to what we’d seen before or wanted more info about. Loved the old pictures of areas like Tudor City and Bryant Park. Fun to hang out with!

5.00I would highly recommend taking a tour even if you are somewhat familiar with New York or have visited before. I learned so many things walking around with Dan, and got a lot of great advice from him. He is very knowledgeable and flexible.
Excellent Walking Tour of MidTown NYC

5.00We had an excellent introduction to Midtown via a walking tour. Andrew met us at the lobby of our hotel and gave my wife and me an excellent overview of the city. Andrew is a knowledgeable and friendly native New Yorker. We covered a lot of ground, and used the subway to get to lower Manhattan. I highly recommend!
