Since our tours are private, we can pick you up from your hotel or apt rental, if you prefer. The travel time from your lodging to the park would be part of our tour time. We would either walk or use the subway to get to the Park. Otherwise, we can meet at the designated meeting point. Please indicate clearly during booking if you would like to be picked up rather than meeting at the designated point.
