Our family visited NY for Spring Break and started with the 2 hour Phototrek tour. Wasn't sure what to expect and a bit skeptical. Blown away!!! Met Marc at Times Square per his email instructions where he talks and walks you through amazing photo shoot against backdrops you cannot imagine: subways, marquees, police cars and taxis, street, buildings and landmarks...

I would consider this tour one of the best excursions money can buy, not only do you get a whole load of useful information you also get some fantastic photographs. I cannot thank Marc enough for sharing his knowledge of the area, the whole complexity of my trip has changed as I feel confident using the subway and with visiting... More

I took this tour as a birthday present to myself with my fiance, prior to the tour we already spent a day in NYC and we saw A LOT of New York in the day. The main reason we did the tour was hope that the photographer would have great hidden spots for amazing pictures and boy did he deliver.... More

Marc is a professional, enthusiastic and knowledgeable photographer. We loved spending time with him on our 3 hour tour of the city of New York. We saw so much without being rushed. The photos are exceptional and a great memory for us. We were only in NY for one week and to do this on the first day gave us... More

As my husband and I had only been married the week before and were on our honeymoon, we decided it would be fun to try this tour whist wearing our wedding gear! We had very specific ideas in mind of what we wanted for our photos and our tour guide Marc was extremely accommodating. This was our second trip back... More

Phototrek Tours provided us with some magnificent photos in front of some of the most spectacular backdrops in NYC, if not the world. Using this service enabled my wife and I to get some high quality photos of the two of us, which is rare when you are travelling as a couple. Our photogapher, Marc, is very good at his... More

This tour was so much fun! My husband thought it was going to be slow and dull, but Marc was informative and funny, plus the photos he took are AMAZING. We did the 3 hour morning tour on the third day of our two week stay in NYC. Our first couple of days were spent walking around midtown and we... More

Our guide was Marc Samuels, he was polite, charming and very helpful, the 3 hours passed so quickly and he took us everywhere, absolutely nothing to complain about. On a scale of 1 to 10 on things you must do in NYC, he is No1. Simply the best and great value for money.
