COMPLETE RIP OFF never got the tour, just waited in line for hours no busses.

HORRIBLE experience. we booked ahead of time on their website and chose a time on the app as instructed. got to the pickup location and found a line around the block filled with people who had been sold a ticket on the street by the over zealous commissioned street sales people who paid no attention to the capacity of the busses. we watched one guy book a group of ten onto a tour that was noted as sold out, he just overrode it and sold them a later ticket and told them to get in line and get on. there is no reservations happening, it's total free for all. we waited 30 minutes for a bus to come, and then it left half full. next bus didn't show for 45 minutes. also left half full. we had moved maybe six feet in the line and gave up. if I have to reserve a time i should not be watching people who showed up on the street without a reservation and whose ticket says a time two hours from now or TOMORROW, get on the bus ahead of me. we never got our nighttime tour, total rip off.

Broken audio but interesting tour

The audio guide didn't work, and neither did the guide's microphone. It's a shame because we chose this tour because it was supposed to be possible to select the commentary in French. The tour is more expensive than other companies that only offer the tour in French. The meeting point is difficult to access (Times Square), why not have chosen a less busy meeting point? The tour itself gives you a great view of the city.
