Great start to NYC

This is an awesome 2 hour walking tour of this fascinating area in NYC. The knowledge of our guide Marella was of high standard and the pace of the tour was perfect. Not too fast but also not too slow. Really enjoyed this tour on our first day in NYC — gave us a very good introduction.
