Just took the Grand Central and Time Square tour. We take a couple of walking tours a year in Manhattan and Andrew was the best guide we have ever had. He imparts lots of good information and insights; has a great delivery and a warm friendly personality More

I highly recommend this tour. It was my 5th time in New York City, and I think everyone should choose Metropolitan Walks to find a more interesting approach to the city. I learned fun and interesting facts about New York. Tour guide was very knowledgeable in History and Architecture. More

I never thought about taking a guided tour of a city I thought I knew well, but on the recommendation of a friend I decided to take a tour with Metropolitan Walks. I am glad I did because I clearly did not know the city as well as I thought. I started with the Lower Manhattan walk that encompassed Wall... More

My wife and I took the Metropolitan Walks tour of the financial district and Ground Zero in early October, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Andrew, our guide, was personable, well informed, and obviously loved what he was doing. His explanations definitely helped illuminate what our eyes took in, and our education that day was well worth... More

Just took the NYC Wall Street and Ground Zero tour with Metropolitan Walks and it was fantastic. We arrived for our tour at 11am and were the only couple on the tour (which was great for us but confusing as its a great tour!) and for the wallet friendly sum of $20 each had a really interesting, fun and informative...

I have taken literally hundreds of walking tours in dozens of cities and these rank among the very best. They show you a lot of great stuff, tell you a lot of great stories and, most importantly, teach you a lot about how New York operates and what makes it different from other places. Even if you've seen most of... More

I took the Lower Manhattan tour a few months ago while in New York for a family event, then returned for the Broadway/Midtown tour with my husband during a weekend trip recently. As someone who has spent a lot of time in New York, I thought I knew everything. But this tour proved me wrong! Our guide was incredibly well-informed... More

I was in New York City last weekend and took the Wall Street & Ground Zero walking tour from Metropolitan Walks. We were particularly interested in seeing ground zero and our guide had tons of great information about that area and the financial industry etc. We liked it so much that we did the company's Grand Central and Times Square...

We found Metroplitan Walks simply by doing an internet search for "Times Square Walking Tours" and saw it looked interesting and was reasonably priced. My family of four had a private tour that included various stops throughout the midtown Manhatton area (Times Square, Public Library, etc.) that finished outside of the U.N. Andrew was very informative was able to answer... More
