Jimmy was a fantastic tour guide! He was extremely knowledgeable and clearly passionate about what he does. His enthusiasm made the tour engaging and enjoyable from start to finish. My family and I had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an informative and memorable tour.

Excellent experience. Booked for 10pm to see Manhattan by night. Building covered in mist so staff invited us to rebook the next day, which we accepted. Superb, clear views and great opportunity to see an iconic building. The exhibits area is an added bonus

The audio part was great. Very upbeat and informative. We always got a seat up top - it wasn't overcrowded. The ticketing process was easy. The stops were selected to give us access to many interesting locations near the stops. The men working at and on the buses were very polite and helpful. We would definitely do it again.

A very beautiful view over the city. Especially recommended at night. The direct view without a pane of glass in between makes it special.
