My wife and I happened to be the only ones signed up for our time slot, so we ended up getting a private tour with the one and only, Meghan Sara! Whether you’re from out of town or not, this is a fantastic way to spend an afternoon. Highly recommend and we’ll definitely do it again :)

Superb Historical Tour

Incredible guide. Best we have ever had on private tours in the US or Europe….Meghan. Her knowledge of the beginnings of the city was encyclopedic and passionate.

Wow, thank you for such a nice review. And we couldn't agree more, Meghan Sara is a rock star! Thank you for choosing Metro Tours for your NYC walking tour.
