Best day! - What an amazing memory! Will for sure do this again! Wished the car was a little bigger and that the longer tour had been offered on Viator, but AAron made it work out!

Vintage car ride is tremendous fun!!! A joy! - We had a lovely, leisurely daytime cruise in a beautiful champagne/burgundy 1936 Hudson! Our driver, Aaron Tabackman, aka Dutch, showed up on time with a smile wearing his straw boater hat, pale blue pinstripe suit and two-tone wingtip shoes in keeping with the era. The ride was comfortable and we felt like movie stars going through Times Square and other areas of New York City as many tourists admired the vintage car and waved to us. The car and the swing and big band music playing on its radio brought a smile to everyone's face. As Dutch drove, he also offered a lesson on the architecture, significant people and events of the time; we learned a lot. It was my daughter's birthday and we couldn't have thought of a better way to spend the time! The experience is like nothing you've done before.

Frustrating - The trip was double booked which meant that we went 1 1/2 hour later than planned and as we were only in NY for 1 day it had an impact on our other planned events. The driver did pay for us to gave a meal as compensation. The guide was very good but, because the car was vintage and quite small I had a limited view but my wife was OK.

Don't waste your money, This was a memorable experience but not in a good way. - This was a memorable experience but not in a good way... Tour started 40 minutes late , the 'guide' (who had no vintage style ) was making no sense and stayed on his phone almost the whole time working on AI images of Marie Antoinette. He kept talking about celebrities he met , honking the horn at women, yelling out the window , and would not shut up about Marie Antoinette for whatever reason. The car was a bit dirty inside but lovely other than that. Don't waste your money.

Very Poor - This is a scam. I waited at Ella Mozarella restaurant on 1st January 2024 from 11.50am to 12.10 and the person in charge did not turn up. I hope you can refund my money.
