Our tour guide, Chazz, gave us the most well-researched, multi-faceted, well-composed experience on a windy and rainy day spring day. It was the perfect complement to our watching the musical the next day. We were our Hamilton shirts and sang our way through the rain. We are huge Hamilfans, especially our son, and this was our treat for his 12th birthday. He told me, "Mama, you told me that the tour guide will 'drop some knowledge' 😉, but I didn't expect him to have so many cool facts. It blew my mind." Book this tour to find out how Biggie Smalls, Titanic, and Texas almost became part of England are all related!

The tour guide, Chaz was awesome. He was knowledgeable and led the experience well. He was super helpful to ensure we arrived to the correct location. He provided technology so we could hear him. He covered much more than Hamilton facts which for me took away from the experience.

Leo was wonderful. Such a fascinating tour with an incredible tour guide. Learned so many cool things about the history of the area.

What can I say other than "don't throw away your shot" too experience an amazing tour intertwining American history, on site locations and Hamilton music. This is a must do on your checklist when visiting Manhattan. Our guide Chaz was fantastic, fun, informative and a pretty good rapper 😁. Do yourself and your kids a favor and spend 3 hours in Downtown NYC and relive the stories of the founding fathers through the eyes of Lin Manuel Miranda!!!

Leo's is a captivating storyteller which is fortunate because you're going to learn a lot! I've done many great walking tours and this one of the, if not the, best. He has so much to share about the history of NYC, the country, obviously the life of Alexander Hamilton, and the musical itself. Leo keeps the many layers connected and personal so the stories feel alive. The walking is fairly light and Leo looked after the group crossing busy streets, getting shelter from the weather, getting seats, and a restroom break.

Leo was a phenomenal tour guide! My 12 year old daughter and I really enjoyed learning a more about the Revolutionary War and the history of Manhattan. We also appreciated the comparison to the musical and ofcourse, the MUSIC during our walk.

Chazz was Wonderful!! We really enjoyed all his stories and information! My teenage daughter is a Huge fan, and she enjoyed it too! (Seriously that is a Big compliment!!!). She liked how Chazz played snippets of the songs while he tied it into real history. I loved that we had earpieces, so I never felt that I missed anything because of traffic etc. I would definitely recommend this tour to fans of the show!

Renee_L

Very interesting with facts about the history of New York as well as the play. Highly recommended. Chaz is a great entertainer and story teller
