Dean was a WONDERFUL guide for our family of 3 visiting the City. Was very attentive from the beginning of our day together to get a sense of our interests, outlining a possible itinerary based on our needs and was outstanding in giving a fabulous blend of history, personal experiences and even obscure information about famous sites. He was a perfect blend of easy going nature, offering interesting information and had a wide range of knowledge. Would HIGHLY recommend!

Mei was a truly amazing guide, she tailored the trip to our needs and age group, she took us through public transportation and taught us how to use the subway, it was wonderful and interesting we experienced NY like locals do. She is friendly, easy to talk to and she makes sure your trip is memorable. Thank you Mei for everything. (bonus she takes amazing pictures)
