On a day with windchills in single digits, Bruce kept everyone engaged (and warm with some indoor stops). All ages will enjoy and learn! Can’t recommend highly enough. Great communication with and accessibility to Bruce ahead of time for planning purposes. Bruce even advised with best sledding places in Central Park for our family (snowed about a foot in Central Park the day after the tour). When we return to NYC, we’ll 100% take another tour of Bruce’s!

It was a rainy, and cloudy day. Despite the weather, the guide painted a captivating picture of Washington Hamilton, and of New York City during the revolution. If you’re thinking of going, it doesn’t matter if it’s rain or shine, you’ll thoroughly enjoy yourself.
Excellent tour. We were a family of three with a 9 year old who loved it as much, if not more, than we did. Bruce was outstanding and we hope to take his Central Park tour on our next visit.
Bruce recently led my family on a tour of downtown Manhattan in celebration of my Hamilton-obsessed 11-year-old daughter's birthday. Also in attendance were her 9-year-old sister, parents and grandmother. Bruce seamlessly guided us in a tour that educated my two daughters and provided the adults with additional knowledge. He did a wonderful job of abbreviating an otherwise longer tour to meet the attention span of our children, while making sure to stop at both famous and little-known locations to help us understand what this area of Manhattan both looked like and meant to New Yorkers at the time. He validated all of my children's questions and patiently answered each of them. We look forward to booking another tour with Bruce in the future!
A lot of walking and standing, but very much worth it! Our tour guide was especially clear and knowledgeable- a delight! It was great to learn about, and see actual locations and buildings from the 1776 era.
Our walking tour around lower Manhattan with Bruce was one of our favorite parts of our NYC trip. It was extremely apparent that Bruce really loved the history that he was talking to us about, and that made it all the more enjoyable to listen to. Though there is very, very little still around from the time of the Revolution, Bruce does a wonderful job bringing the history to life with his stories and visual aides he brought along in a binder. I will be excited to do another tour with Bruce when we come back to NYC.
Very interesting tour. Entertaining as well! Our guide Bruce was incredible and we had a great time. We will be taking more tours with him!
We were in NYC to see Hamilton and wanted to center our trip around the history of the city and Alexander Hamilton. And let me tell you - our tour with Bruce was the perfect way to do this!! We are history nerds anyway, but we had SO much fun with Bruce. He is so knowledgeable and his passion for history shines. We learned new things, saw new things, and made memories. Honestly, it was the highlight of our trip. 10/10, hands down!
One of the best and most informative tours I've been on. Our guide, Bruce, was well educated and entertaining. I would recommend to everyone.
