The tour was amazing! We had Trolley Rob as our guide and he was great! Highly recommend this excursion!

Michael_S

I loved the history behind all the mansions. Was amazed that Mrs. Astor was so arrogant and vindictive. It was sad that most of these wealthy men didn't get the chance to enjoy their homes very long. The paths were clean and well maintained. Walking over some the rocks though was a little scary.

What could be improved? You could start by getting the audio guide to work! I started out at the coordinates given in the description (which were correct, I started at 40 steps as suggested) but never got the audio guide to work as it kept telling me I was off track no matter where I was ON THE CLIFF WALK!

Buying the guide was a waste of money and a waste of time it's just a walk so just take it beautiful view enjoy the walk you don't need to pay for the tour
