Awesome historical tour
Very pleasant experience with a knowledgeable guide Michael. A quick ferry ride to Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Spent a few hours and learned a lot. Would highly recommend!

My sister and I, who...
My sister and I, who always like to visit a museum or two in the cities we visit, really enjoyed this tour with Leo. The museum is huge so with that in mind we decided a tour of some of the highlights would be a great introduction to The Met. Leo was very friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the artworks he took us to see. We would definitely recommend this tour and would definitely come back to visit The Met if lucky enough to visit New York again.

Go with a guide!
Rob was our tour guide and he was exceptional. We do a lot of tours and he def ranked among our favorite guides. We had been to the Met by ourselves and it was just so overwhelming. Go with a guide, it makes the experience so much more enjoyable. I learned so much!

Excellent Metropolitan Highlights Tour
Since the Met is the fourth largest museum in the world it can be quite overwhelming. This Highlights Tour was absolutely brilliant since it gave us a good idea of what the Met is all about and we got to see some stunning pieces. Our guide, Richard, was polite, friendly and had excellent knowledge about the exhibits he showed us and together we went on a journey through time from ancient Egypt to ancient Greece to the Renaissance to Art Noveau, Impressionism and modern masterpieces. We highly recommend this tour especially if you are a "Met beginner" and/or are pressed for time.

AMAZING TIME W/ CITY WONDERS
From the moment we met our guide at the meeting point, it was clear that City Wonders takes great care in delivering a well-organized and informative tour. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, and New York City itself. They kept the group engaged with interesting facts and personal anecdotes that made the history come alive. Their passion for the subject really shone through

AMAZING TOUR!!
What I particularly appreciated was the convenience of the skip-the-line tickets that City Wonders provided. The regular lines to get into the building were quite long, but with our priority access, we were able to bypass the crowds and go straight up to the observation deck without the wait. It made a huge difference in maximizing our time, especially in a city as busy as New York.

The perfect intro to Midtown
We were lucky enough to have tour guide Brendan to ourselves while we were still out of season. Brendan is a native New Yorker and his knowledge and enthusiasm was second to none. I've been to NYC several times but knew none of the interesting facts and sights that we learned and saw. Grand Central Terminal never fails to amaze me. Worth every penny.

Fun, informative and lots of great picture opportunities.
This tour is well worth doing, giving you an alternative view of New York and its history. The walk itself is around 2 hours and is completed with a visit to The Edge, giving spectacular views of the City. All well worth the money. As for OUR GUIDE ROB, he was fantastic. Personable, amusing and extremely knowledgable, even telling us funny stories about his own experiences of living in the area. I would definitely recommend this trip and this company.

Outrageously Disappointing "Guided" Tour
My partner and I were beyond disappointed with the "New York City: Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island Guided Tour." This so-called "guided" tour was a complete rip-off! There was less than 30 minutes of actual guided commentary. Instead, we were mostly left to fend for ourselves, taking a ferry to and between the islands with zero commentary. We were just dropped off at museums on each island with a few highlights mentioned before being abandoned. I did some research afterward and found that a guided audio tour, which includes transportation from and back to Manhattan, would have cost less than half the price of this scam. And guess what? The audio tour likely provides exponentially more commentary on the attractions we were supposed to see. I would strongly advise against wasting your money on this so-called tour. Save your hard-earned cash and go for the vastly cheaper and undoubtedly better audio tour instead.

Great Tour!
We did the Midtown Manhattan Guided Tour with Leo yesterday and had a great time! It was a great way to see some of the famous NYC sites and get your barings of the city. Leo did a great job of educating us and we learned a lot. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Worth it-includes mudeum entry- skiped long line to buy pass
Our guide, Cherie was personable, accommodating, cared about each visitor's experience, and most importantly passionate and knowledgeable about the museum. She gave interesting insights to various highlights throughout the museum. This Met is too much to explore in a day so a guided tour is a nice way to see several highlights with great context about each targeted piece.

Mala experiencia por los boletos no me los aceptaron y tuve que pedir ayuda.
Mi experiencia no fue buena debido a que no me aceptaron los tickets comprados aqui, una persona del museo nos ayudo con el problema, pero el mal momento paso, ya adentro todo estuvo muy bien, muy bonito museo.

City Wonders Tour, Great Sites and Great Storytelling!
Rob our tour guide on Christmas Day 2024 was amazing. He was knowledgeable and told interesting history stories about the city. I feel I know more about NYC from this tour, then all the years I visited in the past. City Wonders guides are top notch.

A moving and unforgettable experience
This 9/11 guided tour was truly exceptional. The guide was knowledgeable and respectful, providing deep insights into the events and their impact. The stories were moving and brought a powerful human element to the experience. The entrance to the museum was the perfect way to reflect and understand more about this pivotal moment in history. Highly recommended for anyone visiting New York City!
