CoupleVerified bookingDec 20255/5Fantastic guide and driver. From the moment we stepped on the bus until we left the bus, both were very informative and polite going above and beyond all expectations. Not sure anything could add to our experience. The walk at Dyker Heights was well paced, kept together by the guide and absolutely beautiful and enjoyable. Timely pickup from our driver and great ride back. Thanks so much for the experience!!!!GGail M
