    We hoped our scheduled Lower Manhattan Secrets and History Walking Tour would be good from its description, but we were delighted when it turned out to be beyond good - it was GREAT! Our tour guide, Meghan Sara, was excellent. She is so knowledgeable, informative, energetic, funny and a pleasure to be with. We learned so many interesting and surprising things about Lower Manhattan’s history! Meghan was also very thoughtful as she led us on the tour finding shade and places to sit along the way as well as clean restrooms, places to get a beverage/snack, and she graciously treated us to slice of NY pizza at the end of our tour. The tour was excellent, and we highly recommend the tour and particularly touring with Meghan!! The Toups New Orleans, LA

    The first was our tour guide, Megan. She was wonderful. The way she presented the material was fascinating. I loved watching and listening to her. Her every gesture enhanced her words. She had such a passion for the history and architecture of the area. The second was seeing Taylor Swift's loft. Third was the history of the area as a place filled with warehouses for shipping, etc. Makes me want to do more walking tours.
