Best Tour We Have Ever Taken…
Ted B, 17-12-2022
One of the best walking tours my girlfriend and I have ever taken. Bruce Racond is incredibly knowledgeable, organized, and entertaining. He can even quote long passages from historic documents from memory. And he has real respect for American history. Highly recommended.
A step back in time in NYC - Viator and Bruce - unforgettable.

He gave us loads of extra information and sources to expand our learning experience. Could not be happier that we chose this tour.
Take this tour, you’ll be happy you did!

Bruce was absolutely wonderful! So knowledgeable and very thoughtful of his tour attendees. He shows several maps and historical documents and walks the small group through a chronological tour of Lower Manhattan. Great use of 3 hours of time in NY!
