Our guide (Luke)was knowledgeable and entertaining. It was fun learning some of the story behind the stories.

It was so much fun to see the locations from so many superhero movies, and even more enjoyable to get the story behind the story! Our guide, Luke, was very entertaining, and kept the tour on track despite a few members dropping off along the way. The actual walking parts were very easy, even for an older and out of shape person (such as myself!), and the only thing I would have changed was the weather, which went from sunny and pleasant to breezy and cloudy. And since nothing could be done about the weather, we just stuck it out, and had a great time! 5 stars to Luke and to Top Dog Tours!

Nice tour around the city. Simple and very interesting tour, for groups and families around the building and roads, the stop in Central Station was so nice.

My boyfriend and I took this tour in April 2024. Our tour guide, Percy, had much to share on the history of comic books in New York City. We learned so much about the creators of our favorite superheroes, and we even got to see some older Marvel/DC filming locations. It was a wonderful time!

We went on the Marvel walking tour with my 12 and 14 year old. The tour was a lot of fun for anyone generally interested in super heroes and comic strips. Claire was a friendly and knowledgeable guide and showed us various locations that had been in superhero films or TV shows, whilst giving the lowdown on several superhero’s, comic book writers, locations etc. Really enjoyed it and would recommend

Excellent experience, Luke was a fantastic and knowledgeable guide and he and the company were great when I was late (subway!!!)

Rory at Top Dog Tours was fantastic! He made the tour interesting to a wide audience group, taking us to, and where applicable, walking around certain buildings to take pictures. His knowledge was great, and always ready to answer any questions. He had a great manor, and English sense of humour! This was one of the highlights of our trip to New York. My kids were 13 and 9, one very into his comics, the other not as much. But both found it very interesting.
