Experience New York
Beyond the Guidebooks

Maurita was an amazing tour guide for our family. She personalized it, had amazing knowledge and we had a great time!

Maurita was a wonderful tour guide! We greatly appreciate her giving her day to us and battle the heat to show us as much as we wanted.

Great walking tour with Maurita, she was very knowledgable and took me to some very interesting sights in New York. The tour was tailored based on what I wanted to see and do. A really enjoyable afternoon. I would recommend Maurita and definitely book her again for another tour.

We had a great walking tour with Maurita on the afternoon of the day we arrived. It was a great way to familiarise ourselves with the city and have the opportunity to ask a local for any tips or advice we needed. Maurita contacted us before the tour and asked if we had any specific requests or interests and was flexible on the day. Would highly recommend it.

Mei was terrific! We wanted to avoid the main tourist attractions so Mei took us to Brooklyn and Queens where we enjoyed terrific views back to Manhattan, a calm ferry ride, and visited some ethnic neighborhoods enjoying some tasty cuisine. We had a great time!

I love the personal attention to my wishlist

Our took deviated a bit from my initial desire to see some of Robert Moses impact on NYC, but Mei guided my son and I through Grand Central Station, the subway system, and Roosevelt Island with information on some of Moses’ influences on the city. Wish we had more time, but the lines were very long for the ferry, so we took the overhead tram ride to Roosevelt Island and had a pleasant walk with really nice views of Manhattan and Brooklyn.

A full immersion into New York gems. Mei helped me understanding different aspects of NY by visiting Brooklyn, Dumbo, Chelsea and and by taking the ferry, bus and subway.

Olga was extremely knowledgeable and showed us parts of the city that I didn’t know existed. She was also thoughtful about our 16 year-old son and showing him things to see that he enjoyed.

This tour was such a treat. We did the four hour tour with Olga. It was worth every penny. Olga was a kind, intelligent person. She made sure we were engaged and having fun. I will certainly be booking another of her tours in the future. The best thing about this tour, outside of Olga, was how exclusive it felt. We passed dozens of group tours, and you could tell they were limited in what they could do because of the size of the groups. We were able to move in and out of smaller spaces to see some off the beaten path stuff. It felt like we had a “friend” in New York, showing us around.

We were lucky enough to get Olga as our tour guide. She was such a pleasure to spend time with. She is extremely knowledgeable & so interesting. We visited so many different & beautiful little places that a normal unaccompanied tourist wouldn’t have seen. Her knowledge & the history of the places we visited was outstanding. We covered so much. Even now after arriving back at hotel she’s sending me so much helpful information for places we mentioned we’d like to visit. Olga is an absolute gem. Thank you

The locations we choose

Ross was excellent and very accommodating to our group today Thank you so much

We wanted an overview of NYC to get our bearings since we'd never been here before. Ross was prompt, polite, and informative. A great way to start our trip. He got us comfortable on the subway and took us all over, and saw what we were wanting. I highly recommend Ross and this endeavor.

Ross was brilliant, knowledgeable and friendly. He took us to some great food places, gave good history and answered all my questions too.

Ross was our tour guide and he was fantastic. He listened to what we wanted to see and made sure we packed it all in - even though it rained much of the time! We came prepared. Ross was an excellent and very helpful communicator prior to our meet up as well. Highly recommend!

Ed has excellent knowledge of New York and took the time to understand our interests. He knew where to go to show us how locals live which included an amazing cookie followed by the best pizza and then we finished off in a cool bar near Wall St. So nice to have someone take the lead so we could concentrate on the surroundings. Ed is attentive and personable and we very much enjoyed our day with him.

Amazing !

It was very fun!

Ed was very communicative from the beginning, trying to customize our tour even though we did not really know what we wanted to see. He met us at Grand Central and guided us on the subway and he did a great job leading us through and included a stop at a great bakery in Williamsburg. He also made sure that we got back to where we needed to be. My husband and I really enjoyed our afternoon and felt that we were meeting with an old friend. Would definitely recommend Ed as a guide, as a native New Yorker, you can tell really loves his city!! Thanks Ed

Jason was amazing. He was like meeting an old friend showing us around NYC. Your tour guides are the reason we always choose city unscripted.

First time in NYC! Jason P was very knowledgeable and good storyteller. It was a great way to meet NYC.

He not only gave us an amazing tour, he taught us how to use the subway! Any questions we asked he was able to answer and taught us so much. Highly recommend using Jason as a tour guide!

Jason our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable, communicated great, and was super friendly and fun. We had a great time and could not have asked for a better experience. 5 stars for sure

Kamilla did a great job of personalising the tour according to my preferences and ensuring I got the most out of only 6 hours in NYC to get a real feel for the city covering many highlights.

We had a wonderful tour with Kamilla. Stärkung in Brooklyn Heights and then going with a fairy to Williamsburg where we could admire alll the cool places and Young people … Kamilla Turner out to be very flexible, well spoken and Full of Knowledge ….

This was an absolutely amazing tour. Kamilia was our tour guide and she was very knowledgeable and made our trip very interesting. I would definitely recommend her as your tour guide.

Her knowledge and passion made my tour educational, fun and an experience with local food!

Great 8-hr private tour, fantastic guide in Denise, very highly recommend!

This is the perfect experience because you can let your tour guide know what you'd like to see ahead of time and they plan the day accordingly to make the most out of the time you have together. Our guide Denise was fantastic and made sure we saw all the things we wanted and shared history and interesting facts about each of the areas we visited. She also gave us great tips for other areas to explore and things to do on our own, as well as areas to avoid! I highly recommend this activity and would ask for Denise as your guide. Enjoy New York, I know my husband and I sure did!

We had a custom tour of NYC and Denise was so wonderful. She showed us around, was so flexible ( as we had all different interests and ages of kids), and made the afternoon fantastic. Thank you Denise for a great great day around the city!

Denise made a tour that was interesting for the 3 generations. We got a good explanation how to use the subway so we knew how to use it ourselfs. As she said herself she is not so good in dates and numbers( of historical things), but that was no issue for us.
