Omar nos hizo la visita muy amena, poniendo música tras cada parada y explicando con humor en cada una de ellas. Íbamos con dos niñas y la verdad que aguantaron muy bien las dos horas a pesar del calor. Además no hizo a cada familia que iba en el grupo varias fotos con la niña valiente. Gracias por tu amabilidad Omán! Translate this opinion into English.

Omar made the tour very enjoyable, playing music after each stop and providing humorous explanations at each one. We were with two girls, and they endured the two hours very well despite the heat. He also took several photos of each family in the group with the brave girl. Thank you for your kindness, Oman! Opinion translated. Show original.

Gabriela es una guía muy profesional, que hace su trabajo con gran entusiasmo. El tour es muy ameno y Gabriela te explica muy bien los entresijos históricos del sur de Manhattan. A pesar del calor sofocante, intenta mantenerte a la sombra durante el recorrido. Es muy recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

Hicimos el tour con Christina, sabía mucho de la historia y costumbres de la ciudad, nos mostró con mucha amplitud el distrito financiero y manejo muy bien el grupo siendo que era bastante numeroso y hacía mucho calor. Al final se quedó más tiempo dando muy buenos consejos sobre cómo moverse y donde comer. Translate this opinion into English.

We took the tour with Christina. She was very knowledgeable about the city's history and customs. She gave us a comprehensive look at the financial district and handled the group very well, given the large group and the very hot weather. She ended up staying longer, giving us great advice on how to get around and where to eat. Opinion translated. Show original.

El free tour con Cristina estaba siendo excelente, muy interesante y entretenido. Cristina es atenta y muy buena profesional. La pena es que yo me encontraba mal de salud y tuvimos que irnos sin terminarlo e incluso sin despedirnos. Esperamos volver a hacerlo en otra ocasión al completo. Gracias Cristina y perdona las molestias. Translate this opinion into English.

The free tour with Cristina was excellent, very interesting and entertaining. Cristina is attentive and a very professional person. The shame is that I was feeling ill, and we had to leave without finishing it or even saying goodbye. We hope to do it again in full another time. Thank you, Cristina, and sorry for the inconvenience. Opinion translated. Show original.

Una gran forma de empezar el viaje Fue nuestra primera actividad nada más llegar a Nueva York y no pudimos elegir mejor. Viajamos en familia (mi marido, mi hija de 11 años y yo) y todos quedamos encantados. Omar, nuestro guía, fue excelente: muy amable, con gran conocimiento y una forma muy amena de explicar la historia del sur de Manhattan. El tour es dinámico, interesante y apto incluso para los más pequeños. Aprendimos mucho y disfrutamos cada momento. ¡Muy recomendable! Translate this opinion into English.

A great way to start the trip. It was our first activity upon arriving in New York, and we couldn't have chosen a better option. We traveled as a family (my husband, my 11-year-old daughter, and I) and everyone loved it. Omar, our guide, was excellent: very friendly, knowledgeable, and had a very engaging way of explaining the history of lower Manhattan. The tour was dynamic, interesting, and suitable even for the little ones. We learned a lot and enjoyed every moment. Highly recommended! Opinion translated. Show original.

Jay tiene mucha energía, que es bueno , pero usaba un tono de voz muy muy alto que resultaba incómodo. Las historias que contaba y demás genial, pero lo que no me gustó es que no se ciñiera al tiempo que dura el tour y que lo ampliara, avisandolo al comienzo y que además, sobrepasara ese tiempo; se hizo muy largo, además hacía un calor terrible y que estamos de turismo y nos organizamos el día y a nosotros nos retrasó mucho.

Jay has a lot of energy, which is a good thing, but he used a very high-pitched voice that was uncomfortable. The stories he told and everything were great, but what I didn't like was that he didn't stick to the tour time and that he extended it, giving us advance notice at the beginning, and then exceeding that time. It felt really long, plus it was terribly hot, and since we were sightseeing and planning our day, it slowed us down a lot.

Los guías se esfuerzan por hacer el tour más enriquecedor y ameno posible. Esto puede provocar que algunos contenidos se amplíen, y la duración del tour se alargue, siempre intentando cumplir con todas las expectativas. Sentimos que la visita no haya sido de vuestro agrado.

The guides strive to make the tour as enriching and enjoyable as possible. This may result in some content being expanded and the tour lengthened, but we always strive to meet all expectations. We are sorry that your visit was not to your liking. Opinion translated. Show original.

Muy recomendable para hacer una idea de aspectos básicos de Nueva York. Omar captó la atención de todos desde el primer momento. Lo cuenta todo de una manera muy dinámica, nos puso música e hizo que estuviéramos atentos todo el tiempo, buscando también sombritas para que no pasáramos mucho calor. El guía muchas veces hace que te guste o no te guste un tour, y Omar es excelente, te transmite su energía. Translate this opinion into English.

Highly recommended for getting an overview of the basics of New York. Omar captured everyone's attention from the very start. He explained everything in a very dynamic way, playing music and keeping us attentive the entire time, also looking for shade so we wouldn't get too hot. The guide often makes you like or dislike a tour, and Omar is excellent; he transmits his energy to you. Opinion translated. Show original.

La experiencia ha sido muy buena gracias a que Cristina nos acogió en su grupo ya que el guía que se nos había asignado no se presentó. No me parece de recibo dejarnos tirados sin ninguna explicación ni preaviso. Cristina ha sido una excelente guía. Amable, simpática y conocedora de la ciudad y su historia y nos ha hecho pasar una mañana estupenda!! Una guía 5 estrellas!! Translate this opinion into English.

The experience was very good thanks to Cristina, who welcomed us into her group because the guide assigned to us didn't show up. I don't think it's right to leave us stranded without any explanation or advance notice. Cristina was an excellent guide. Kind, friendly, and knowledgeable about the city and its history, and she made our morning a wonderful experience! A 5-star guide! Opinion translated. Show original.

La actividad fue muy buena , el guía muy simpático trataba en todo momento q estuviéramos atentos a sus explicaciones de cada lugar q estábamos visitando , creo q para q sea mejor y dinámico q subiéramos al ferry , o entrar. Ala caverna , pero de todas maneras se agradece . Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was very good, the guide was very friendly and always tried to make sure we were attentive to his explanations of each place we were visiting.
