This is First Class, absolutely a superior experience. I have to say, I am the pessimistic type. Found it hard to believe all the over-the-top reviews, but they did have an authentic ring. So...I cancelled a tour with a lessor (but better known?) outfit and hooked up with Matt. For that, I am my family's hero. Wife and I have... More

Just got back from New York City - My first time there. We had arranged a car-tour / walking tour with Levys' Unique New York and had an outstanding time. Matt Levy was a lot of fun, and customized the tour "on-the-fly" based on our interests; stopping to show us unique graffitti, and areas of interest, all the while rattling... More

If you go to NYC, you have to experience it. What is it? How about a private walking/subway tour around Manhattan/Brooklyn including, in order, Koreatown, the Empire State Building, The Upper West Side (incl. The Dakota), Central Park (including Strawberry Fields, The Alice in Wonderland Statue, Bethesda Fountain, and The Boat House), The Upper East Side,The Lower East Side (incl.... More

My Mom, 2 sisters and I had a private, walking (subway riding) tour with Matt this past weekend. It was AWESOME!!! Not only is Matt funny and interesting, but he is also incredibly knowledgable of NYC. He showed us everything we asked to see and more! We took a tour the following day with another company to see the Statue... More

There is nothing that these guys don't know about NYC! My husband and I booked a private tour and my only wish was literally that it could have lasted all day! (Note - they will work with you on private tours to book pretty much anything you want as far as time, what areas you visit, driving or walking, etc.)... More

Matt has a wonderful way of making a tour memorable. You made our trip a huge success. Impossible to say what was best and least because it was all FANTASTIC!!!!!! You entertained teenagers aged 12-18 over 3 long days. BRAVO! BRAVO! BRAVO! Highly recommend a good pair of walking shoes and a camera with lots of memory! I'd hire you... More

Our group (36 kids, 7 chaperones) toured NYC for 5 days, we booked 4 days of tours with Levy's. They looked after everything. We gave them our list of "must see" attractions and information regarding our group (741 Elgin Royal Canadian Air Cadets) They put together a customized tour for us and even purchased tickets for venues for us on...

From the first second we met our guide Matt Levy it was clear that it would be an energetic day. Not only were we impressed by the never ending amount of knowledge Matt has about New York, the fact that he presented it with lots of humor made our tour through Brooklyn a fantastic event. We started our tour by... More

have been on several Levy's tours with Matt and have thorooughly enjoyed every single one over the years. I have been on NYC tours with other companies as well and they pail in comparison to these guys - the personal stories, the group engagement, the high energy, the 'not so well known' history - I highly encourage anyone traveling to...
