Truly fascinating tour. A wonderful combination of the seemingly endless history of NYC and a boundless creativity that helps each and every building feel as alive as the nature of Central Park

was very interesting and learned a lot! Great way to explore this part of the city. The only issue is that the readability is too high for non native speakers.

What a great game! I loved the itinerary and how consistent the theme of Gods and Titans is. I discovered a couple of NYC spots I did not know before and really interesting stories about them. Thank you!
