Six of us took this tour and it was one of the highlights of the trip for everyone. Our guide was…read morefunny, warm, and knew an enormous amount about the city. The mix of real history and his own stories kept all of us entertained the whole way through, and I say that as someone who has lived here a long time and has heard a lot of New York trivia. He was great with people. He asked us questions, remembered the answers, and made a point of talking with everyone as we moved between stops. The weather was a question mark that morning and he had already sorted out how to handle it, so it never became our problem. Everything leading up to the day was organized and clearly communicated too. Worth every penny. We'd do it again.

Scammy, unresponsive, and complete trash! Ordered the 9/11 museum tour for 5 people - $395. Was…read moretold to download the app to access the tickets. Fast forward to the day of the tour. I open the app 40 minutes before the tour. It tells me the tour starts at the church next to the One World Trade. Ok so we trek over to St Paul's chapel at 9:45. No one to be found. Waiting around until I check the app about 9:55ish (tour starts at 10) and notice it says to message in the app messenger for specific meeting location. So I shoot a message. I wait until 10:15 and still no response at which time I decide to just go ahead a go buy new tickets. I don't get a message back from Nina B until 1:45pm (3 hours and 45 minutes after the tour starts ) telling me it's my fault I didn't check the email even though the app tells you to communicate and get the tickets in the app. She would not accept any responsibility and refused a refund. So I had to do a charge back, which I obviously won. See my communication times and screen shots below. BEWARE AND DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. I told you I would get my money back Nina B

Great tour!!! The…read moreonly hiccup was the bus was unmarked and not parked in front of McDonalds as described on the website/email instructions. I had just explained to my son the importance of arriving early because arriving on time makes you late(he wondered why we left the hotel early though we were only a couple of blocks away from McDonalds.) The unmarked bus was parked across the street in front of the Paramount building. We were in line for a different tour who was parked in front McDonalds who informed us that we were in line for the wrong tour and pointed to the unmarked bus. We still arrived on time. I then explained to my son that situations like this is why you arrive early. I had a ton of missed calls and was contacted by email but a sign of some sort would've helped(a magnetic sign on the driver and passenger doors, or a foldable sign that can be transported on the bus) as I noticed the bus from across the street(the same side as Applebees and Ellen's Stardust Diner) but had no way of identifying it.

Went there for free First Friday - free admission and scheduled activities. The museum has outdoors…read morespace for large sculptures, and a garden. There are 2 indoor floors. The pieces are in the open, not cordoned off so be careful not to touch them. Can refer to one of the laminated lists showing what's in a particular area. Some scheduled tours as well. Elevator, ramp for accessibility. Joined an art workshop in a room downstairs for first Fri - supplies and snacks/water provided, plus DJ music. Also chess boards were set-up in different areas of the museum. There is a gift shop, and restrooms. Close to Socrates Park so was a long walk from the Steinway St-M R station. I normally wouldn't mind if it wasn't a muggy afternoon. The Broadway N W station is a bit closer, also some bus lines.

A wise man once said those who delve into art....Let's begin this review!…read more The Noguchi Museum is a sculpture garden musuem dedicate to the works of Isamu Noguchi, artist and architect. He came to NYC as a teen in1922, you will see a handful of his sculptures in some of the buildings and airport. This museum has three floors and a basement, museum store and a garden. Today's admission is free due to 4th of July celebration. Museum's gallery section is unique and different from one another. Visitors are not allowed to take flash photography and touch the sculptures or art display. However, being me I put that to the test. Hehehe. Staff were obsequious and professional. Free wifi. Plenty street parking. Admission is affordable. Overall, I had a nice experience discovering Isamu's art.

It's pretty convenient to see nyc this way bc we got to check out most of the major attractions in one day.

I recommend to check with your hotel to see if they offer discount for tickets first before getting tickets from random strangers on the streets.

I've visited parks all over the country and found little pieces here and there that remind me of Central Park, but nothing has ever come close to its beauty, magnificence, and magic. If I could afford it, I would happily live right next door and spend my days wandering its paths. It is more than just a city park, it's an experience, and it's one of those places to visit once in a lifetime.

The conservationists are doing a lovely job of keeping the park clean, vibrant, and beautiful. I was pleasantly surprised by the lakes; I didn't expect to see them in the middle of a bustling and stereotypically rigid NYC. The park was full of families enjoying a day out, kids playing games, lovers taking a stroll, tourists using up all of their iCloud storage, fitness fanatics getting in their workouts, musicians sharing their talents with the world, readers who found a quiet place away from all of the aforementioned, and people watchers, like me. There is plenty of space for everyone here. Even though I've been to NYC multiple times in my life, I don't recall ever coming to Central Park. The familiarity comes from all of the movies, TV shows, commercials, and even social media pictures and videos that have featured the beauty of this park as a backdrop. (John Wick, is that you??) Yet make no mistake. This gem, a mixture of GOD's masterpiece and the works of man, is no mere supporting actor. Central Park gives main character energy, which is central to its plot of allure.
