It was a wonderful way to see NYC without having to take the subway or a taxi to various locations. The customer service was excellent and the MC on the bus was fabulous. There were also places the MC pointed out like architecture, tips and tricks to purchasing broadway show tickets and so forth. It was well worth the money, I would highly recommend it.

Very much worth doing !! A great way to see the city and learn about the history and interesting spots in it.
Reviewed by: Charlene M., Canada, May 2010
This was certainly the best way to see New York! my only personal challenge was that my eticket had to be redeemed uptown whilst my accommodation was downtown, and whilst one is still not comfortable with the city, getting there was an issue for me. I would have preferred if my eticket was legit and was accompanied by a route plan. Otherwise i loved seeing the city in this manner and your guides are all awesome! Keep it up!

This is one of the places that my husband wanted to visit. This is where John Lennon was killed. Across the road is Strawberry Fields in Central Park, we hopped off bus here and had good look around, then hopped back on and carried on with the tour. Brilliant!
