The guides vary. Some are brilliant. Others average. Overall we found them good value for money assuming a$10-15 per head tip.

we were in New York for a couple of weeks in April- and as it was our first time we thought the best way to see some of this amazing city was to join a few FreeToursByFoot...and what a brilliant decision. we took 3 tours- all three were excellent- Harlem with Derrick (thank you derrick, for an awesome insight into...

Nothing but kudos! We enjoyed the tour very much. Renee was very knowledgeable about Greenwich Village having grown up there. She pointed out some very interesting sites such as homes that famous people lived in and how homes that historically were used by the working class are now some of the most expensive in the Village. Our foursome agreed that... More

I took 2 tours, one in Brooklyn Heights, and the other one was a food tour in the Village, both with the same guide Courtney. In both locations she had good informations to share not only about history, architecture but also (and I appreciate it as a foreigner) about daily life in this areas. The food tour was a good...

I did two tours, Greenwich village and Harlem, both with Derrick. A huge contrast between the two places, and Derrick was very knowledgeable and passionate about both. As a solo traveller, I found the tour very friendly, and we were introduced at the beginning, and people chatted away to each other. The pace was easy and incorporated a food stop... More

The instructions were clear and... More

Great free tour. The guide kindly request for tips and that was clear from the beginning, so it was really clear and worth. The guide was knowledgeable and entertaining at the same time. Good pace and good amount of information, good for elder travelers and visitors. I was with two elder people and they really enjoyed.

The Harlem Walking Tour was definitely a highlight of the weekend. Our guide Derrick did a great job on providing a very informative and interesting tour of Harlem. He connected well with his audience and lead an engaging and entertaining tale and we covered Harlem block by block. This is the second Freetoursbyfoot.com tour that I have had the pleasure... More

We did the Greenwich Village tour and it was one of the highlights of our trip! Renee was a great guide, full of lots of interesting stories and we got so much more out of our afternoon there than if we had wandered around on our own. I wish we had time to take their other tours. Highly recommend.
