Be sure to wear appropriate, comfortable shoes, and keep an eye on your footing! Highly recommended for anyone interested in Charleston's history an...”
Open-top NYC night bus with live narration and skyline views from Times Square to Brooklyn Bridge. 6 and 8 PM departures.
“Our experience on this tour was extremely disappointing from start to finish. The tour was scheduled for 6:00 PM, yet it didn’t begin until 6:30. While delays can happen, what made it frustrating was the complete lack of communication. Dozens of us stood outside in 22-degree weather with no updates, no staff guidance, and no explanation for the wait. When a bus finally arrived, the situation somehow got even more chaotic. We were divided into two lines, but no one explained why. The bus pulled up to our line and drove past the other, which caused a lot of anger and shouting from the people in the second line, who…”
