    Bruce was very knowledgeably and passionate about the history of the park. We went to places we didn’t know existed and saw some beautiful quiet landscapes. This was my daughter’s first time in the park and my first visit to the upper portion. We will be back and I know my husband would enjoy the other tour by Bruce about the Revolutionary times.

    Our tour of Central Park with Bruce was nothing short of amazing! Not only did we learn a ton of fascinating history and the location of so many "hidden" areas, we also just generally gained a new appreciation for the Park itself. Bruce is a fantastic guide - enthusiastic, energetic, knowledgeable and passionate. We had a truly phenomenal experience and would recommend it to anybody!

    Bruce was very informative, and friendly. He gave our group an awesome tour! I’m visiting from California, and he showed parts of Central Park I would never think to explore on my own. Learned lots of history, and fun facts in which I love! Thank you.

    This was my THIRD walking tour with Bruce - and this one was just as great as the other 2!! Bruce is a real New Yorker with a Master's Degree in History (I believe) and a really fun guy to follow around. His breath and wealth of important and obscure knowledge is amazing. He is engaging, funny, kind, inclusive, and great for all ages. This particular tour took us to parts of the park above 100th Street where I have never been and would never wander on my own. It was very safe, tramendously beautiful (French Gardens my favorite) and definately not flat. I Highly recommend this tour, or any tour of his that interests you. I plan on taking his Lower Central Park Tour this summer! This is a great gift for a first-time New Yorker, or a Life-time New Yorker!!
