“I always use viator and this tour was great. The guide was very nice and funny , took pictures of us, we had enough time during our stops (at least 4 to take pics that I remember at the most popular spots). Other tours charge much more so don’t forget to tip! Especially during winter (they provide a blanket). Would recommend you give this a try.”
Capture your New York trip with Joseph’s one-hour photoshoot at iconic spots, including Brooklyn Bridge, Central Park, SoHo, and Times Square.
“Joseph was amazing from start to finish! Was so warm and welcoming, guiding us through Times Square to all of the best spots, giving suggestions and all round making it an amazing experience. As two people who aren’t amazing being in front of a camera, he immediately put us at ease. The photos and videos we have from our trip are ones we will treasure forever and are truly stunning! It made for an unforgettable experience and we can’t praise Joseph highly enough. If you’re looking for a photographer when visiting New York, he should be top of your list”

“Mike was an amazing guide! He was friendly, informed and and excellent driver and host! Recommend his boat as a must do to see NYC!! We go fantastic photos and personalized service. Mike gave us very cool information about the skyline and city. Much better than the over crowded tour boats. We give it the best review possible!”
See Central Park by private pedicab, from Bethesda Fountain and Bow Bridge to Lennon landmarks, film sites, skyline views, and photo stops.
“Our one hour pedicab tour was a colossal waste of time and money. Our driver was pleasant but difficult to hear and understand. His information on the tour was sorely lacking…nothing at all memorable. I booked through viator and paid 140 plus tip.”
