Ben was very knowledgeable guide & an excellent commentator. He really brought the early days of Colonial America to life and in doing so, gave us a deeper appreciation of those who helped found our country and the historical context in NYC.
Ben was an excellent guide. He taught us so much about NYC and the Statue and Ellis Island; at the same time Ben was warm and friendly and fun-loving. We thoroughly enjoyed our day together. Couldn't have been nicer.
Ben shared his extensive knowledge of lower Manhattan history, including information about the indigenous tribes who first lived and traded in the area, Dutch and British colonists, the Continental Army, and even modern day facts and figures. We enjoyed the whole afternoon, especially popping into the Fraunces Tavern and ending in the lovely, green cemetery of the Trinity Church where Alexander and Eliza Hamilton are interred.
