Broadway Theater district tour was a very interesting tour hosted by an excellent and knowledgeable Tour Guide. He moved the group carefully and efficiently, and kept us enthralled for the full two hours with great Broadway historical information and stories. He was caring, personal and so engaging, providing great insight into New York’s historical entertainment district. Thanks so much for such a memorable tour!
