The tour is good and the guide is very good. We are from argentina And that complicated us a little.

Jennifer_T

Everything was memorable. We will recommend this tour to everyone especially to all of our theatre friends that come to New York. I found out all about theatres that I never knew and even my theatre loving kid learned some things too

Bptkids

Patrick was wonderful! So much knowledge of Broadway. We learned so much that one would never learn unless on a private trip like this. Well worth the money spent. Thank you Patrick!

Chris_P

Patrick has an excellent storytelling persona and interjected some great stories with information about the theaters. He went above and beyond!!

Patricia_T

Our tour guide, Patrick, was a wealth of knowledge, anecdotes, historical background, all interspersed with his obvious love of theater. We learned so much in such a short period of time...and enjoyed every minute.

DanielleBAb
