NYC Private Walking Tour: Local Insights, History & Food
SEAN G, Sep 2026
Worth every penny!
I read previous reviews, “Mike is amazing!” “Mike knows so much about the city!” “Mike is an incredible guide!” You know what? All those statements are true. I sent hubby on a personal one-on-one tour with Mike and I am still hearing about it four days later! Mike is so personable, we began communicating days before the tour. He wanted to know if there was a specific part of the city hubby was interested in, or certain historical events. It truly felt like a personalized tour just for the two of them. Yes, it’s a bit more expensive than other tours, but it is totally worth it! I highly recommend this tour with Mike!

Private Ellis Island Tour
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with our Ellis Island tour! From start to finish, the team was extremely responsive, organized, and communicative. They had everyone lined up and ready to go, and all of the little touches made the experience feel very special.Our tour guide was fantastic—so knowledgeable, engaging, and wonderful with the kids. He made the history come alive and kept everyone interested throughout the tour.But the absolute best part was that they found my grandmother! That made the entire experience incredibly meaningful and something our family will never forget.We also loved the thoughtful folder and poster—it was such a nice way to preserve the memories and information from the day.Highly recommend this tour, especially for families. Wonderful communication, an excellent guide, and an unforgettable experience!

Informative, Real, & Moving Tour - Highly Recommend
Dennis was a wonderful tour guide. His first-hand account and personal photos from the days/weeks immediately following 9/11 were informative and moving. We learned a lot about the original architecture of the towers, his experience as a first responder, and the many ways the new architecture of the site honors what came before.

I really enjoyed the Mafia tour with Jay. It was very informative and interesting with lots of stops and snippets of history and storoes about the mob around NYC and also stories about her time with the NYPD. The tour started with a delicious meal of meatballs and spaghetti and ended with canoli pastries also delicious

Best Experience
We went on two full day tours with him and couldn't be more happy. He is both knowledgable and passionate about New York and you can tell he loves what he's doing . We were first timers to New York and really appreciated that he customized the tour to our interests while hitting the must-sees and giving us history, backstories, and trivia along the way. (he's also a great photographer :). With his warm and upbeat personality, the time flew by and we wish we had more time to explore with him. New York is a great city and even greater with a great guide. Highly recommend!

The Must See Manhattan tour with Gabi was amazing! She was very enthusiastic and the tour was informative and exciting. I had my mom and daughter with me to celebrate Mother’s Day and my daughter’s 12 birthday and this tour was the start of our weekend. I really appreciate Gabi answering all of our questions and engaging with my daughter. We will definitely book another tour when we return to NYC!

Attractive holiday decorations, twinkling lights and cheerful traditions
We were in New York during the most festive time of the year. The tour guide had a unique storytelling ability which created an engaging atmosphere. New York’s streets were bustling and we visit some important landmarks as well as some lesser-known but beautifully decorated neighborhoods. Overall, it was a fun way to experience the holiday season in New York.

Eddie was awesome! He was so accommodating and took us to all the hotspots and gave us ample time to get off and take photos. The company was also very nice to confirm the appointment beforehand and organize a car seat for our 2 year old. If you just want a nice, relaxing vibe to see some must-see sites and get off and explore, choose them :)
