Ideal para conhecer a cidade
Reservamos de última hora e foi um acerto. Atenção com o calçado, melhor algo com boa aderência. O preço é honesto pelo que se recebe. Gostaríamos de saber antes que precisava caminhar bastante. Se voltarmos a New York, repetimos.

Nos gustó
Nos quedamos con una buena impresión. Los tiempos estaban bien calculados, no se sintió apurado. Se agradece que venga con guía turístico experto que habla inglés. Un detalle: los asientos no son de lo más cómodos para un recorrido largo. Lo recomiendo, con las aclaraciones que hice.

Muy recomendable, sin vueltas. No es lo más barato, pero se justifica. El paradas en el camino para tomar fotos nos ahorró tiempo y plata. Si están por Buenos Aires, no se lo pierdan.

Highlight of the trip
Much better than I had imagined. We finished with a clear picture of how the city fits together. The stops along the way for photos detail adds a lot. The guide managed the group impeccably, nobody got left behind. I would recommend it without hesitation.

Very well organised
Could not have gone better. Puente de Brooklyn was a surprise, it was not on our list. The guide answered even the oddest questions with real detail. We loved the Manhattan area. We finished with a clear picture of how the city fits together. If you are in New York, do not miss it.
