We had a great tour with Dan! He was extremely knowledgeable and kept the stories moving for our easily bored 12 year old. I lived in NYC for five years (two in downtown) and never saw some of the sites he pointed out to us. It was a great tour and well worth it!

Absolutely top notch tour of lower Manhattan, the oldest part of NYC. Our tour guide Dan was very knowledgeable and adjusted the tour to reflect to our interests, more around political history. There is plenty of that in Lower Manhattan. His anecdotes and insights really brought to life this fascinating corner of NYC, even on a sleepy Sunday am. It was easy to book a tour, and the ~two hour timing g was perfect for us.

Mindy was so much fun!!! She added colorful stories to our tour. We learned all about Battery Park area, The Stock Exchange,Trinity Church, The Statue of Liberty and our founding fathers. She had so much information, we wished we had not made lunch reservations so she could keep going. Mindy was awesome!!

Kevin Draper, our tour guide, was nothing short of AMAZING! He made learning about history fun! He is such a great storyteller!! I never knew there was SO much going on in NY; stuff that I had briefly seen in movies and in the news and to tie it all in different locations was awesome! Can’t wait to go back, contact Kevin again and hit up a different part of the city!! We didn’t realize how much we walked in 2 hrs until it was all over bc we were so wrapped up in his stories. Bravo sir, BRAVO!!!
