Cliff is an awesome tour guide. Funny and knowledgeable. He is very personable. I would recommend his tours to everyone. Worth the time and money.

Hi Lori,
Better late than never! Thanks so much for your review. You've reminded me of the tour back a few months ago with your associates, great ladies from North Dakota engaged in the business of healing. We had fun and so glad that I've had the opportunity to show The Dakota to people who are from a Dakota :)...

Recently I had the opportunity to take my sister to NYC. She had never been there and was eager to see the Statue of Liberty and as many of the other attractions as we could manage. She uses a wheelchair for anything more than a short distance. I was very concerned about finding someone who could make it as easy...

Hi Cathy!
Accommodating my guests needs and wishes is a joy, it's not a "job." I remember your tour well because of your enthusiasm and your sister's too. I'm delighted that together we made it all happen just the way you wished for.
I wish you and yours many safe and pleasant journeys for years and years to come!

Before my last visit to NYC I had visited the city many times. I always loved New York from the moment I first set foot in it. This time we joined a group of friends from Liverpool, UK for a tour around the city as a part of a birthday celebration. Cliff Strome did a tremendous job showing us the...

Thanks very much Tony!
Nice review and much appreciated. You've hit the right points, those are what
people are looking for when booking a private tour. So glad you had fun,
learned a lot and together with your group, wonderful fun people, made it
for me a real pleasure.
Wishing you all may safe and pleasant journeys together for years...

For that authentic NYC experience, you need to take a tour with this company. From start to finish we were entertained, educated and had a blast with our buddy Cliff!
When Cliff picked us up at our hotel, the first thing he asked us was what do you want to see—we rattled off a few of the typical locations and...

Hi LIndsey,
You told me during your tour that you are a writer and now you have provided
the BEST evidence that indeed, you can write!!
A terrific writer expresses experiences with examples, paints a picture and enables
the reader to virtually experience what the writer is conveying. And, by those and
any other measures you have won The Pulitzer...

Dear Cliff...What a wonderful afternoon you made for us. This was our first ever trip to NYC and when our friends directed us to you it was the best thing they could have done for us. We appreciated you covering the things we wanted to see and so much more in between. Your knowledge of NYC's history, culture, architecture and...

Thanks for your referral! Much appreciated, The time you took was well spent
because others, such as you, sophisticated travelers look to tripadvisor for
beneficial referrals to guide them to the best choices. You have provided an
invaluable service and as a member of the tripadvisor community of vendors
I thank you!

"Fahgetaboutit!"
That's both a phrase you'll hear during the tour, and a description of what you won't do when the tour is over.
Case in point: we went on a tour with C&P last June and here I am writing a review today.
We stopped over on our way to Africa and, being my first time in NYC, wanted to...

As it has been said, time and again, "better late than never!" We toured together in June and it could be that you've spent all that time working on it :)
Your referral is a mirror of how I provide tours! It was funny, creative, amusing and kept my interest from top to bottom.
Thank you! Taking all that time...

WOW! What a great experience! I organized a group of 16 to New York City. The trip was an incentive reward from our company for certain employees and spouses. The problem was how to keep the group together, having fun, and seeing the sites. Cliff was the answer. They had an awesome time with Cliff. He took them on a...

Hi John,
I'm delighted to have received your generous review. Moreover, hearing from guests who are
well satisfied with their tour experiences is my biggest paycheck. We do provide informative
tours however, if they're not fun and memorable experiences then, it's not a tour. Thanks for
enabling others who are members of the tripadvisor community to make the best private...

This tour with Private and Custom Tours is a must. It was our favoite activity while in New York. Cliff, owner and guide, shared his New York City with much enthusiam and knowledge as he guided us right through the lines at the 911 Memorial and ignited emotions as he toured the ground with us, educated us on "air rights",...

Thanks for your review, original and all true! :) Now everyone knows that I'm a line (cue) cutter. Well, to be honest it's in my DNA. I'm a real New Yawka!!
Nice of you to take the time to "tell the world." I just hope that no one will be disappointed if I
can't ply the same "line cutting" antics...

Was your guide knowledgeable, entertaining and professional?
Cliff was extremely knowledgeable! It made our time in NYC so much more meaningful and interesting. He arrived on time (early actually), was dressed nicely, was VERY KIND, FUN and full of life! He remembered all that we were interested in seeing , doing, experiencing, and added even more to our time together...

Hi Susan,
We had fun!! You and your colleagues provided the energy that launched me into overdrive and enabled us all to connect and embark on a tour that I, and you all, will always remember. All tours are special and I never expected such an enthusiastic and energized group from North Dakota!
I can't wait to visit the Great...

Our tour with Cliff Strome was exceptional. Our group of four women enjoyed the fact that there was a driver so that Cliff could focus all his attention on us. He is historically knowledgeable, very engaging and funny! Having lived in NYC many years ago, I learned so much of the history of the sites we visited that I never...
