Had a good time but felt like it was more French language than English. Wondered what we missed out on.

The trip was a great experience. Ulrich was a terrific guide!! Absolutely competent and friendly. With a warm heart. It was my great wish, to see the marion avenue, and he fulfilled it. And the rest of the tour was sooo beautiful. The wave hills were a surprise for me, the bronx is the greatest borough of New York City. In the next year I'll like to join the "Harlem Gospel Tour" and I hope Ulrich will be the guide again.

A mostly disappointing tour. The guide spoke mostly in French and very little in English. There were a lot of things shown here that were not of any great cultural/historical significance. You're better off picking a few things like Bronx Zoo or Yankee Stadium and going to see them on your own and at your own pace. On the plus side, the tour did allow you to catch a glimpse of a borough which you may not go to otherwise.

Two words; very disappointing!!!
We had a bus driver turn up to work and had no idea he had been called to do the Bronx, when he found out he wasn't too thrilled. To his credit, he didnt know where he was going and had a tour guide that he clashed with but he powered through and was pretty good. The tour itself doesn't cover much of the Bronx, we saw Yankee Stadium and drove along the main road. Our tour guide took us to their version of Little Italy where we spent most of the tour. I was so bored when we got back on the bus i fell asleep, we saw the Bronx Zoo way off in the distance. The tour was a waste of half day actually!
