Amazing walking tour great guide ‘Matt’

Amazing tour guide, mat he was a wealth of knowledge with a true sense of passion. Good sense of humour. He managed to find an alternative route due to the rain which still enabled us to see all the sites
Great tour

Our guide Jim was full of local
Knowledge and gave a really personal
Account of the devastation of 9/11 from a native New Yorker perspective. I feel we learnt things and saw sites

Not my favorite tour
Maureen K, 25-11-2022
While our guide was knowledgeable, it was very difficult to hear him. Need headsets. And he had a notebook full of photos, that were difficult to view as he panned the group . It was an outdoor tour, and some in our group were not dressed warm enough ( it was a 50 degree day) so the tour guide followed their lead, and most of tour was indoors. We spent most of our time inside at Brookfield Place and the Oculus, and the guide pointed out the highlights from a window. Not my favorite tour.
