Review of: “Get Acquainted Tour” of New York City

This was an incredible tour! I can’t stop telling people how great it was – every review I read was right on. Thank you, Fred, for giving my friend and I a wonderful tour of the city. We covered the whole city in about 6 hours – minus the tourist traps (Little Italy, etc.). Fred took us to a great pizza place in the Village, to Bethesda Fountain in Central Park, along Museum mile, Highline Park, WTC…. the list goes on. Fred has such great knowledge of the city’s history. And don’t forget your camera – Fred had no problem letting us snap pictures everywhere.

Absolutely amazing tour 5 hour!!! Take it, you will not regret it. It was very laid back, relaxed, packed with a lot of information in air-conditioned van, free cold water, MTA Card to Grand Central Terminal and a lot places to see. We had our reservations for Sunday morning and forecast was 94 F. We were so happy to be inside a comfy Van. We had 8 people on the tour and Fred (our tour guide) asked everybody if there any specific place we would like to visit. I’m a former New Yorker and I took my wife for her first trip to Big Apple. I thought nothing can surprise me….I was wrong. Fred showed time and time again that there is more to learn about THE City. We where so glad we went on the trip with “NY See Tours”. Thank you Fred and his crew for an amazing time. We will be back from more. Sergei/Irina


This tour was worth every penny (and then some!) – Definitely take this tour whether it’s your first time to the city or not.

AN EXCELLENT TOUR THAT’S WORTH THE FULL PRICE!

I’ve been to New York several times, but this was my ten-year-old nephew’s first trip to New York and we had only a few days available.  I decided that a tour would give him the best overview.  I’m usually an independent traveler and suspicious of tours and tourist traps. This tour exceeded all expectations.

Fred is an excellent guide with a wide expertise. I was especially impressed with his knowledge of art and architecture. We toured with eight women on a shopping trip.  Fred was able to keep everyone happy, despite divergent interests.

Not only were our guide and bus driver both very warm, personable, and friendly, but they were able to show us many famous attractions, lesser-known (but not less awe-inspiring) attractions, some historical information to get to know the city, and even some knowledge from personal experience. Spent some time on the bus and some time on foot – and got great food recommendations too! We covered a lot of ground and really got a sense of the city, and our guide’s love for his city was so clear and inspiring. I would recommend this tour as a must-do for anyone traveling to New York City.

Our tour guide, Fred, was fabulous. He custom-tailored our tour for the teenagers that were with us. They learned many new and interesting facts about NYC and all want to explore more. As a native New Yorker, I thought that I knew much about the city, but Fred gave me more history of Manhattan and made the tour enjoyable. Very flexible in meeting our expectations.

My wife and I were visiting from Chicago (we’ve been to NY several times now, but never “explored” the city like we wanted to) and went on this tour yesterday and to say that it was GREAT is truly an “understatement” (smile)! Our tour guide Fred Pflantzer was EXTRAORDINARILY KNOWLEDGABLE and simply a VERY PLEASANT AND FUN guy to be around and to DEFINITELY have as a tour guide (smile). Fred tailored the tour according to the “pulse” of what the tour participants were anxious to see……or NOT see for that matter, lol (smile). In essence, he was OVERLY ACCOMODATING and “anxious” to do whatever was necesssary to ensure that you had a GOOD TIME on the tour. My wife and I were TRULY IMPRESSED and it exceeded our wildest expectations by far (smile)! Fred is a CLASS ACT and I TRULY RECOMMEND this tour for ANYBODY that wants an INTIMATE, COZY, FIRST-CLASS experience of NY. I have never ridden the “on & off” bus to tour a city, and after this…….I don’t think I ever will, lol (smile).
