    My wife and I toured Manhattan with Mei on 9/27 of this year. It was my first time in New York City. I'm an urban planner by trade so I wasn't as interested in the touristy areas as I could find those on my own. Mei was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and passionate about the history of New York City. She brought some of the places we went to life with fascinating stories and showed us hidden gems like Fort Tryon Park. She provided insider tips that we wouldn't have found in any guidebook. The pacing of the tour was perfect and there was just the right balance of walking, exploring and taking the subway. She taught us how to do that. What really set the tour apart was how personalized it felt. Mei took the time to engage with both me and my wife and tailored the experience to our interests. She showed us the architectural history of Grand Central station and the library and made recommendations for local eateries. It was clear that she genuinely wanted us to have the ultimate New York City experience. I can't say enough good things about Mei. She is such an amazing person and you guys are lucky to have her on your team.

    Mei Yen was an excellent guide! She was able to organize a time and cost efficient route based on my itinerary that I gave. Set realistic goals and come open minded and enjoy!

    We had a great time on a private walking tour of Brooklyn with Olga. Olga was prompt, very friendly and knowledgeable about the area of our tour. Olga also showed us a great way to get around via water taxi and helped us navigate the schedule and ticketing. She gave my wife and I a great tour and a memorable experience.

    It was really enjoyable to tour the city with Olga. She made us feel like a visiting friend and unlike one of those prepackaged tours we got to experience plenty of areas of the city you do not typically visit.
