We had a fantastic experience on the Private Contrast Tour of New York, thanks to our guide, Felix. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and tailored the tour perfectly to our interests. The contrast concept really shows a deeper, more authentic side of the city beyond the usual landmarks. The pace was great, the stories were fascinating, and everything felt very personal. Highly recommend this tour—and Felix is an excellent guide!
Recommend experience with Jose Antonio, a great guide with interesting stories to tell about the history of each neighborhood
Great tour of New York Contrasts. Angel is a great guide and even history teacher. All his comments are interesting and respectful
Great experience, thanks to Marcos who was a great host, the tour was very complete and his explanations helped to understand and enjoy more what you were seeing.
The contrasts tour with Ivan was very good!
Spectacular. We loved it.
It was a very complete tour and with our guide Paco who made us have a great day and live an unsurpassed experience
Beautiful tour! A good way to see all the neighborhoods of New York and you can appreciate the different cultures. Marcos the guide is a genius! Very fun, and willing to tell you everything in great detail. Without a doubt I recommend the tour!
Marcos is an incredible guide, he explains everything super well, very fun, many anecdotes, attentive, kind, speaks very well and is very professional. Without a doubt the best guide, he makes your experience much better without a doubt The only thing to improve perhaps some small walk in the areas
Good activity to learn about the differences between the different neighborhoods of NY and see their cultural diversity. Our guide, Juan Carlos, told us quite a few interesting things about the different places we were at and made the whole excursion very enjoyable. Totally recommended, 10/10 experience.
The tour is very good and helps you learn a little about the history of all the areas of New York. Juan Carlos was our guide and made the whole tour very enjoyable for us.
We took the excursion with Reals Tours, booked through Civitatis; everything was well managed, and we were lucky to have William as a guide, who was like an open book throughout the trip, providing all kinds of clarifications as well as acting as a photographer. A luxury that rounded out our experience.
Incredible experience with Iván as a guide. Immersive experience with a lot of knowledge of the neighborhoods. Answering all questions and explaining in detail events, anecdotes, occurrences, and curiosities about all of them. Highly recommended.
Ivan picked us up at the entrance of our hotel. Everything great, information and explanations, stops. Everything 100% recommended.
Everything exceptional! Iván is incredible!! 100% recommended
A highly recommended tour and if you get the guide Paco, even better! Great person and he explained everything to us very well!!
Good experience and the guide Dali was very good.
Contrasts with the best guide in the world, Paco
The tour was educational, pleasant, and instructive. Juan Carlos's explanations and service were very good. It would be even better if some stops were not so artificial, so touristy
A more than recommended tour, the price difference between the regular and the VIP is minimal and the experience on the tour is much greater, very close with the guide, in our case DALY, a New Yorker who, in addition to explaining, tells you what it's really like to live here, making the trip very short thanks to his friendliness and knowledge, oh!! And a great driver in the NY jungle and it is appreciated.
Let Raymundo and the whole world know, Ángel is an excellent guide and gave us a great tour of the NYC neighborhoods. Highly recommended.
Excellent tour, very pleasant, and the aunt with Paco was excellent
The VIP contrasts tour with Cristhian was incredible, he made it super enjoyable and provided a lot of interesting facts; it was clear he knew the history of the city. It is an activity that I recommend 100%.
I would give the tour a 5-star rating because of the guide, Paco. He drove and talked, providing a lot of very interesting facts. He had the timing perfectly measured, and we arrived before the rest of the groups.
René is a genius! Very attentive, kind, and patient. The excursion was very good and comfortable..
Highly recommended and comprehensive tour of less typical areas of NYC. Marcos, our guide, brought fun, friendliness, and provided various and very interesting information about the places visited. A great experience without a doubt. THANK YOU MARCO, A PLEASURE!
The tour with Dali was very pleasant and he explained everything very well. Super interesting and recommended!!
Great tour accompanied by Marcos. It has been interesting and fun; we saw a part of New York that we would not have visited without him.
We loved it, the guide Luan was super friendly, he explains everything very well, gives advice, and makes it very enjoyable. We recommend it.
We took a private contrast tour with a group of 10 people. It was a fantastic experience not only because of the places we visited, all of which were spectacular, but also because of our guide: Manuel Carrillo. Who was a wonderful host and made the experience truly memorable. Thank you!
We were lucky and honored to have Paco as our guide; it was a very complete and perfect tour.
Julián is super professional, knows a lot, and has treated us wonderfully 🙂
Very good experience; a good tour to discover parts of NY that you would not usually visit
100% essential tour. It is worth doing the vip to do it by minivan, few people and much more usable since the bus can not do the same route. Our guide was Marcos, explained a lot of things and advised us and accompanied us all the time making the experience fantastic. I would do more tours with him without a doubt. Thank you very much
We are Spanish and we did the Tour Vip de Contrasts in New York with Fabricio. We loved the tour. We were very comfortable in a van to tour all the places. Fabricio was a very good guide, he was telling us many interesting things about New York and the different neighborhoods or districts. We had time to stop, take pictures, see everything and it was very interesting. I recommend it. It's a really good way to get to know places outside Manhattan better. Thank you Fabricio!
The tour was very nice. It is worth visiting places far from Times Square. Cristhian was an extraordinary guide. Super friendly and explained everything and more too. Greetings
José Luis was our guide and was great!! He explained everything to us clearly, made us feel like we were from there, played us ambient music when we entered the Bronx... It was really one of the best days of our honeymoon! Thank you so much for everything
We really liked it, something worth seeing to get a slight idea of other faces of New York, nice experience, interesting.
We hire contrasts of New York vip the truth that is a good advantage as you are picked up at the door of the hotel and gives you time to have a well-rounded breakfast tour the sow that New York City is full of contrasts thanks to Royal tours NYC
An exceptional experience, a great tour and a great host, which did not stop surprising us every time. Thank you Willian, we are going to Madrid with an unforgettable memory ❤️❤️
We were with Cristhian it was a wonderful experience. Cristhian is super cultured, cheerful and very close. I give it a 10
Unmissable!! William extraordinary guide. I recommend!
Perfect tour to see the different areas of New York and its different villagers. You visit five totally different worlds. Very professional guides, pleasant and complete explanations.
Our guide Marcos has been exceptional, punctual in the beginning of the excursion, has been telling us all the curiosities and information of the neighborhoods we have seen. Even after the excursion you have had the detail to send us recommendations of places to eat/dine. Highly recommended 👌
Very good experience Our guide Marcos excellent 👌 explained everything
Great tour to get to know the different neighborhoods of NYC
A fantastic experience, if you want to know NY beyond Manhattan. The fantastic Christian guide, both in the explanations and how enjoyable and fun he does. It's an essential experience.
Saul has been a great guide. Good driver, very good explanations. Everything perfect
From start to finish it has been wonderful! Cristhian, our guide, was super attentive throughout. In addition to being punctual in the collection and always concerned for the welfare of the attendees, all the information you provide is very complete, very interesting and very appropriate with what you are teaching. I challenge you to ask a question about NY or the US that I can’t answer, because in addition to a great NY Guide, it reports very well on life in the US.
