    We toured the Statue of Liberty yesterday with Esther (from Sweden). She was a great tour host and we thought the tour was well worth it. Thank you so much. I do have 1 recommendation on telling people where to meet up. Adding a sentence about a tour guide holding a (specific) sign will meet you at the (location specified). When we arrived at the location, there were a bunch of people directing tourists. I showed one man my phone confirmation and he told me to get in the 2.5 hour long line. Thank goodness I called your phone number and Daron told me which specific person holding a sign to look for. (She wasn’t there yet because we were 25 min early). Thanks again.

    Loved it, we had a great time!

    Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, helpful, and very sweet. We really enjoyed having her. The guy from the initial meeting point was very nice as well. Overall, we were glad we purchased our tickets through this company. We will definitely use this company again the next time we're in town. Thanks so much for all your professionalism and speedy responses when I messed up the ticket dates! -Mari
