“Traveling from Union Square in Manhattan to Hoboken on the PATH train was surprisingly calm and quick, taking about 10 minutes and costing $3.25 per person with tap-and-pay, which is very convenient. Opting for a private tour made this experience truly worthwhile. It felt conversational and tailored to our interests, allowing us to ask any questions we had. I found the tour both informative and thought-provoking while maintaining a relaxed atmosphere. Greg significantly enhances this tour. While it's possible to visit Hoboken independently, you would miss the unique stories, history, and local insights that he offers, making the experience far more engaging and unforgettable. This turned out to be one of my favorite ways to spend a few hours away from Manhattan and provided me with a fresh perspective on the NYC area.”— EduardoR691

“Pablo provided an incredible experience, showcasing the New York skyline in a way I had never appreciated, despite previous visits. The view of Downtown and Lower Manhattan at sunset was spectacular, with colors shifting based on the day and weather reflected in the buildings. This tour is essential for those wanting to capture stunning photos of the New York skyline and explore often-overlooked Jersey. For French speakers, some English skills are required to fully enjoy the experience with Pablo, but I highly recommend it. Set aside a full afternoon for the sunset and early evening to witness the skyline at night. Pablo drives you to various viewpoints, making it seamless and enjoyable.”— Maureen C
