GBA bit disappointing The Ride was very entertaining however a bit of a disappointment. I took this tour in either 2018 or 2019 and it was so very very informative about the history of Manhattan. A real history lesson with virtual glasses. I’m sure the glasses had to go after the pandemic but no reason to drop the history. Instead we drove around and around Times Square.

GBI absolutely loved this I absolutely loved this. The guides were funny, helpful and friendly and the street entertainers entertained. Despite the fact we were stuck in traffic some of the time, it was all a fun event. I'd highly recommend.

ITThe BEST!! I ride in a glass-top bus that has the seats all facing the glass. It was like feeling in a theater surrounded by coordinated lights and sounds, with screens to tell the story of what you see and with a very nice guide! Ah! I forgot ... the bus takes you to see all the wonders of the city !!

GBGood tour however... Good tour however it was spoiled a little by the insensitivity of the two guides who seemed to think it funny to joke about the death of Queen Elizabeth II. It was in bad taste, especially as it was only 2 days after her death and there were quite people on board who felt it unnecessary. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, you just don't always need to air them!

GBPass on Overpriced and Kitschy “The Ride” We were really excited to try the ride in New York City, because it offered something different and unique. In theory, it’s a clever concept—but we were left very disappointed. It felt like a poor attempt at comedy hour and offered very little insights/factual information into the city. It felt like the bus was simply going around in circles to accommodate the staged performers, who were admittedly the highlight of the Ride. The ticket is way overpriced for what you get and we’d recommend going with another tour company that offers more by way of exposure to the city and dissemination of interesting facts.
