Review – New York Sighting Tour (6 hours) - This six-hour New York sightseeing tour with Sophia and Steve felt less like a guided tour and more like being shown around by very entertaining friends who actually know what they’re talking about.
Sophia is not just a tour guide. She’s a walking New York story machine with humor, knowledge. From Times Square to the Christmas market, through Chinatown, Chelsea Market, Liberty State, and across the Brooklyn Bridge, she managed to mix history, culture, and everyday New York life without ever sounding scripted or boring. Highlights included her explanations of the German engineering fundamentals behind the Brooklyn Bridge and a surprisingly passionate debate about the true origins of pizza. Sicily came prepared. New York defended itself loudly.
Steve, our driver, was calm, professional, and clearly unfazed by New York traffic, which alone deserves recognition. Smooth driving, perfect timing, and always exactly where we needed him. Six hours in the city without stress is not luck. That’s skill.
Somehow, even small moments became memorable. An escalator turned into a topic of conversation. The famous New York pretzels were intensely discussed rather than eaten, with strong opinions on quality, authenticity, and reputation. Colonial history blended naturally into stories about Sicilian specialties and food culture. At some point, Sully the pilot and his geese entered the conversation 😂, because apparently even aviation legends belong in a proper New York tour.
The absolute surprise was the karaoke show at the end. After six hours, it should not have worked. But it did. Loud, joyful, slightly chaotic, and the perfect ending to a day full of impressions and laughter.
This tour was informative, funny, relaxed, and never felt rushed. No dry facts, no tourist nonsense. Just New York, seen through people who love the city and know how to share it.
Highly recommended, perfect thx Jutta (Flamingo) and Thomas

Beyond Great! - Our private NYC tour was more than we could have ever expected or asked for and this was all thanks to Jared. His incredible knowledge and passion was evident throughout the day and we greatly appreciated his attention to details that we would be interested in after getting to know us a bit.
Also, huge kudos to Benny who drove us and navigated the chaos with grace.
We will be back and look forward to booking with Jared and Benny again!

A must do for first time visitors to NYC! - We took my 77 yr old mother for her first visit to NYC. We wanted her to see as many sights as possible without too much walking and ENY saved the day. Our guide , Jared, and our driver ,Mohammed, were awesome. She saw Central Park, UES/ UWS, Harlem, midtown, downtown, and Battery Park. They knew the best spots for photo ops, snacks , and bathrooms. Jared is a wealth of NYC history as well. One of the best tours we’ve experienced!

Peter was absolutely... - Peter was absolutely amazing! He customized our entire time on the tour to meet our needs and desires. He was knowledgeable but also knew when to let us just enjoy what we were doing. He did more than I ever thought you could do in 4 hours time and he truly became a quick friend. Our driver was also amazing. He was always there right when we needed him. We went on multiple tours throughout our travels and Peter made this by far our best tour that we had and with his love for New York it made us love New York. We would go again in a heartbeat.

Our Best NYC Tour We’ve Ever Taken – Thanks to Jared! - We’ve done quite a few tours in New York City over the years whenever friends come to visit, but Jared’s tour was by far the best we’ve ever experienced.
From the moment we met him, Jared was personable, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. He showed us around Manhattan, Williamsburg, and other parts of Brooklyn, sharing fascinating stories and insights that brought each neighborhood to life. We made well-chosen stops at major highlights like the 9/11 Memorial and several hidden gems along the way.
A special mention goes to Benny, our driver, who was excellent — calm, skilled, and always in the right place at the right time, making the entire experience smooth and comfortable, even when we asked for a detour.
Jared’s storytelling, communication, and depth of knowledge set this tour apart from every other we’ve taken.
If you want to see New York City through the eyes of a true expert, don’t hesitate — book with Jared. You’ll love every minute!

Amazing experience - An Unforgettable New York City Experience!
Jared and our driver Benny were absolutely incredible! Over the course of six hours, they managed to show us all the best highlights of New York City — from the iconic landmarks to hidden local gems. Their knowledge, friendliness, and attention to detail made the entire experience feel effortless. We had an amazing lunch, learned so much, and truly felt like VIPs the whole day. I can’t recommend this tour highly enough — 10 out of 10!
