A private guide and separate chauffeur will pick you up from your Manhattan or Brooklyn hotel and take you on an adventure through the highlights of New York in half a day! You will see all of the highlights of Manhattan using a combination of walking and driving and we can tailor the tour to suit any special requests you may have.  By having a private guide and a separate chauffeur driver, you will maximize what you can see in the 4 hours - being dropped right outside the attractions - and walking off road with the guide, whilst the driver drives round to pick you all up from the next spot.  The guide and driver will work together to give you an exclusive and insightful experience of our city.

Best Tour We Have Ever Done

Published on Sep, 2021

We had the most awesome tour with our guide Tom and driver Anthony. We saw the whole of Manhattan in 4 hours - Grand Central, Times Square, Meatpacking area, Soho, Greenwich Village, Chinatown, Little Italy, Wall Street, Ground Zero, Central Park and more. Although we had a guide and driver, we wanted to walk a lot too so we were able to get out with the guide, go inside places, walk and then the driver met us to take us to the next stop. Tom was such great and fun guide - he knew everything about the city, he was funny, kept us all engaged, a real storyteller - he also took us to the best photo spots. We loved the food we picked up along the way too. The vehicle was spacious, modern and clean and the driver very polite and efficient. We have done private tours all over the world but this was definitely the best we have ever had! It is not cheap but so worth it. This company is the gold standard.

First time in NYC

Published on Jan, 2019

For your 1st in NYC was great. My husband and I saw so much in 4 hours. Sam, our driver was great and Johnathon, our guide was wonderful. You must ask for them. It was the best!

Private custom driving tour of Manhattan

Published on Oct, 2018

Our guide Jose was awesome - super knowledgeable about Manhattan history and trends! My parents loved him, and my son and wife enjoyed his engaging, informative conversation. He paid attention to the areas we were most interested in and navigated the city for a great afternoon introduction. It was also perfect to be able to have the talented driver park so we could jump out at the sites ( wall street, central park, the Greenwich village,...). Rowan was personable and super responsive in making and communicating the arrangements. Wonderful trip for my family.
