This NYC photo tour is a must!! I was visiting the city alone and this was the perfect way to get AWESOME photos and have a local show me around a bit. Jessie was great - she was so nice to talk to, showed me the ropes of the subway, and was full of recommendations of places to see and where to eat. Plus her photos turned out absolutely amazing! I was so so happy with this experience, would 10/10 recommend

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful afternoon with Jessie. She made the whole experience fun and exciting and any nerves we had about getting our photo taken quickly went away. My favorite part was seeing New York through the eyes of a local and having those moments captured forever on film. Truly a worthwhile experience and I'd highly recommend it.

I did this tour with my boyfriend last week and am so happy with the results. We aren't at all familiar with NYC and hate asking strangers to take pictures of us, so this was perfect. Jessie was super considerate and knowledgeable. I would recommend the tour to anyone!

This was a bit out of our comfort zone to book but we are so glad we did! Came to NYC on honeymoon and was a fantastic way to start off holiday, get our bearings and some amazing pictures to keep. Jessie was a fantastic guide helping us with tips and advice and put us both as ease. She even managed to get my husband to enjoy having his picture done. If you are considering doing this I would encourage you to, you won’t regret it and Jessie is a fab tour guide.

@Laura: Thank you so much for the kind words! It was so great getting to show you around. Next time you're in town I'll take you two over the Williamsburg Bridge I was telling you about! :) Congrats again!

Jessie is a photo-genius. It was so great seeing Central Park, the Upper East Side, etc through her lens.

It was a super easy tour where she shared lots of tidbits of information I wouldn't expect a tour guide to give because she's been living in the city forever. She is kinds and playful which makes it really easy to feel comfortable in front of her camera. Sometimes she has you pose in a silly way, but it cactually looks phenomenal from her point of view.

I went with my best friend to get a fresh taste of Central Park and Upper Manhattan in the fall and I'm so happy I did. Thanks Jessie!

Highly recommend this to visitors of NYC or people that just don't take as many photos of themselves as they'd like in this magical city!

P.S. I shared some of my favorite parts from the Central Park portion.
