I gave the tour 4 out of 5. We actually did not take the tour, but I was forced to give a rating to make comments. Greg cancelled the tour at 1:30 when it was supposed to start at 2:30 because it was raining. I told him we were willing to bring raincoats and umbrellas, and gut it out, but he was unwilling to make a go of it. We have taken many outdoor tours in the rain all over the world. My biggest problem with the cancellation was that it was too late to book any other tour for the Saturday afternoon we had in NYC. To be fair, Greg did issue a prompt refund.

I'm a college adjunct at the University of Texas at Austin's NYC campus and teach a course about social issues in advertising and public relations. As part of the learning experience, I wanted to give students a field trip. After contacting Greg Marro, I knew that I'd made the perfect selection of a guide. He asked for the syllabus and worked to make sure the tour was educational, relevant to the course subject matter -- and yet still fun. Greg more than delivered. He beautifully wove the academic and interesting together. My students loved the experience -- Greg is a riveting storyteller. I'll definitely use Greg Walks NYC for future semesters!

Wow! What a fabulous tour and and even more fabulous tour guide! Greg treated my class to a free tour. It was really cool to hear about all the Bob Dylan sights. He knows what he’s talking about!

I'm a college adjunct at the University of Texas at Austin's NYC campus and teach a course about urban communication. As part of the learning experience, I wanted to give students a field trip. After contacting Greg Marro, I knew that I'd made the perfect selection of a guide. He asked for the syllabus and worked to make sure the tour was educational, relevant to the course subject matter -- and yet still fun. Greg more than delivered. He wove the idea of both musical spaces as a place for urban communication -- but also, through family stories and historical sites, stressed the importance of dialogue over coffee. It was genius, really. The students loved the tour -- Greg is a riveting storyteller. I'll definitely use Greg Walks NYC for future semesters!

I didn't know much about music before going on this tour, but I want to learn more about it and listen to more music after going on the tour! Even though I didn't know much, every piece of information was still interesting and so fun.

Greg is simply fantastic! I reached out regarding the music and food tour for a day he typically didn't offer tours, and he added one to the roster just for our group. His tour was one of the highlights of our trip - delicious food and so much great information and history. He was also very patient and kind with my senior mother who was moving slowly. Greg is great and I would recommend his tours to anyone!

Do yourself a favor and do this tour Day #1. Greg took us to the best bakeries in Greenwich Village and the best pizza, Joe’s on Carmine. We flew out the next day so we couldn’t go back to all the great spots, but we know where to go when we come back!

Great knowledge of area and good sense of humour. Also engaged with local residents who added much more information.
