Wow, not a lot of reviews here, are there?  If you want to know what I thought about the park itself, that'd be in my other review.  This is for the Central Park Sunset Tour company specifically.

We purchased this deal... read more through...Living Social or Groupon (don't remember which) in preparation for our trip to New York.  My first impression of their quality came the first day in New York, when the ever shifting winter weather patterns made it a better idea to switch the tour to the next day.  In a panic, I emailed the company asking if it were alright to switch the reservation on such short notice, and received a speedy reply in the affirmative.  So plus there.

Our tour guide showed up on time at the designated spot (unfortunately the site's page showing a picture of the meeting spot was down, but they were detailed enough I was able to find it no problem), and the entire 2.5 hour tour was full of great information and what I can only assume was all of the major points of interest in the park.  I won't go over everything we saw, but it was definitely a good tour and the guide was very knowledgeable about every bit of the park (I'm sorry, I wish I could remember his name, but it escapes me).

At times it did feel like the tour moved too quickly, but considering the area we had to cover I'm not surprised or upset about the pace.

While I wouldn't use the tour again (not sure why someone would), I definitely encourage anyone visiting or living in the area to check them out. read less

Sunset tour is a great way to spend a relaxing yet energized late afternoon in New York. The tour takes you to well known park attractions as well as hidden jems of it. The guide (Matt was great!) will tell... read more you must-know facts as well as waggish details from history, New York politics and so forth.

Be prepared for intensely paced walking for solid 2 hours. Though you have breaks and stops, and there is plenty of shade and benches, so you will never feel exhausted, but rather relaxed and inspired. read less

Wonderful informative tour of the park. So happy we decided to do this and not try to walk alone. Would have never seen or learned so much. Thank you!

LOVED IT My fiancée Liz and I decided to do this tour. And SO GLAD WE DID. Our tour guide was so phenomenal. Kelsey guided us through the park as though she was an old time friend giving us nuggets of history.... read more Nothing seemed scripted or rehearsed or overly didactic. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour and recommending Kelsey as your guide. read less

Great experience! Five college roommates got together for a week-end in NYC. We booked your after we arrived but day before we wanted to go. Instructions on where to meet & confirmation emailed.

Saw all the spots I wanted to see, our tour guide Matthew was very knowledgable and he gave us enough time to enjoy each spot!

If / when you are in NY you must take this tour. We just loved it

The best way to tour Central Park All right, I'll admit it: Despite having been to NYC a few times, I had never visited Central Park. I mean, the place is huge, so where would I even start? Enter TripAdvisor and the many recommendations for Central Park... read more Sunset Tours. Matt was an excellent tour guide -- super knowledgeable about every aspect of the history of the park, and friendly to boot. There is so much ground (literally) to cover within a couple of hours, but Matt hits all the highlights, and you definitely get your steps for the day in at a nice clip of a pace, even with a pit stop for coffee at Tavern on the Green's takeout window. Highly recommended. read less
