A Sampling of Letters

During last week's visit I discovered more about the city than I have on all previous occasions--and that is entirely thanks to Rich & Famous Tours. Your guide’s easy delivery of information, insider's knowledge about the city, personalized gossip about some of the residents and humorous delivery secured my full attention. We were privileged to enjoy such a great city with such an excellent guided tour. With Best Wishes,

David H., London, England

You educated, entertained and thrilled us with Rich & Famous tidbits of the Big Apple.

Sally A., Columbus, SC

As I mentioned on the phone this morning, our group thought the Rich & Famous guide Jim Dykes was simply the best! Never once in his presentation did he stop to think of his next topic. It seemed that every building, corner or even hill could bring a thought to his mind about the history of the city. It was also a thrill when we saw Phil Donahue come out of his house to jump into a taxi.

Jeff W., Indianapolis, IN

Most significant, however, was our tour guide, Jim Dykes. He took a personal interest in us and our interests, His demeanor was always pleasant - a marked contrast to the brusque behavior of some guides I've experienced. His knowledge of the city was appreciated by all members of the group. And we spotted a celebrity—Mary Tyler Moore, walking her dog!

Claire B., Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Thank you for the wonderful tour on April 8! Your guide’s vast knowledge of New York, combined with a charming personality and his eagerness to inform and entertain resulted in three of the most delightful hours our guests have ever spent in New York! And I am including guests who are New Yorkers! When they returned, they couldn’t wait to tell me what a wonderful time they had with Rich & Famous Tours.com!

On behalf of our National Council, we wanted to thank you so much for our May 19th Rich & Famous tour! It was so interesting and comprehensive and gave us all a new appreciation of this city...especially as seen through the eyes of the wealthy and famous! We received accolades from our senior staff as well as the group of teachers and students that attended. Believe me, keeping students awake and energized after just getting off a red-eye flight, is no small feat! Thanks again,

Reina U., Director, the National Campaign for Literacy

Thank you for making our first trip to New York so memorable! My three oldest granddaughters and myself were part of your Rich & Famous tour on April 20th. We were so impressed by your knowledge of New York and personality during the trip. When asking my 12-year-old granddaughter what she would remember the most, she said “Jim, the tour guide on the Rich & Famous tour!” New York was pretty impressive to us “country people!” And we recognized our guide from a TV commercial!! Many thanks!

Martie S., Fillmore, MO

Thanks for a wonderful experience! We would not hesitate to go on another tour with Rich & Famous Tours should the opportunity arise. Happy Holidays,

Estelle and Dominick S., Philadelphia, PA.

Thank you for making our first trip to New York City so memorable. It was a wonderful experience! We are especially appreciative of you taking us to see The Shop Around the Corner from our favorite movie You’ve Got Mail. It is an experience we’ll never forget!

Joe & Margaret S., Evansville, IN

Just a quick note to thank you for the wonderfully informative and entertaining Rich & Famous Tour we took August 3. It was a very satisfying morning—I will definitely be back to NYC. I fell in love with the city, and again, I thank you for your part in that. Sincerely,

Jacquie G. Peoria, IL

What a pleasure it was to tour with Rich & Famous tours last Sunday morning! It was like taking a ride with a friend who had a PhD in “NewYorkology”! I thank you so much! We visit New York frequently and you will hear from us again...p.s. I’ve already told friends!

Rev. Terry A.—Tampa, FL

Rich & Famous Tours made our trip to New York a rip-roaring success...and added a great deal to our stay in NY for the NAC Convention. The tour was filled with interesting information and the guide was marvelous at sharing it...with the right touch of history, perspective and humor! We will always remember our first trip to NYC and your tour is a big part of those recollections being entirely positive!-THANKS!

Patrick O.—Morrow, GA

We had a WONDERFUL tour with Rich & Famous Tours last Monday! Everyone in our little group was extremely happy including me..they could not stop talking about how knowledgeable the guide was about the various landmarks, tidbits of gossip and also where the celebrities lived. And the fact that we spotted Drew Barrymore was the best! I think we should do this tour again next year! Thank you for doing such a great job!

Donna J., Charlotte, NC

A very big “Thank you!” to Rich & Famous Tours for your outstanding tour recently. My group is still talking about spotting Julia Roberts on the street! We hope to make this a regular trip!-Best Regards,

Joanne R., Age of Travel, Atlanta, GA

It was very exciting to be in New York with such an informative tour as Rich & Famous Tours. Everyone in our group commented how you made the city seem like a home to those living there---which it is—and how they wouldn’t mind living there if they had lots of money like some of the celebrity residents!!!

Marie B., Top of the Line tours, Charleston, SC

My travel group just couldn’t say enough good things about Rich & Famous Tours. Yours is truly the best tour I have ever taken in New York...We wish you continued success!

Just wanted to thank Rich & Famous tours---I have never enjoyed a motor coach tour so much as I did last week. It was just a wealth of information about New York and its best-kept secrets! And what a pleasure to see Patti Lupone! Thank you again...

Thank you so much for a wonderful tour through New York City’s Rich & Famous neighborhoods. You are definitely “the best!” and we will be back again!

I wanted to send this note to let you know how much we enjoyed the Rich & Famous Tour on Saturday, Oct. 9. The guide was SO informative and full of so many inside tidbits and history of New York City. He made the tour delightful and we were sorry to see the tour end.

JoAnn A., Carmel, IN

We cannot thank you enough for the delightful Rich & Famous Tour we received during Thanksgiving week! The tour was one of the highlights of our trip. Everyone was overjoyed with your unique tour of the glamorous New York neighborhoods! It was truly a name-dropper’s delight!

Josette G., Regional Tours, South Point, OH

Now that I am back in the rainy United Kingdom I am writing to thank you formally for the fabulous Rich & Famous tour we enjoyed last week. Special thanks go to the guide Jim Dykes who clearly made the tour so memorable. His wealth of knowledge of the city, heritage, culture and gossip will remain with us forever! It was an absolute pleasure.

Jennifer L., London, England

Mary and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to New York City and would like to thank you for the great Rich & Famous tour! It was, without a doubt, one of the best tours we have ever taken. The guide’s knowledge of the city is most impressive and his comments were extremely interesting, and often times amusing.

Paul B. Madison, WI

Good afternoon-our group took your Rich & Famous tour Oct. 26 and absolutely loved your tour! We had many wonderful things to say about your tour guide such as his historical knowledge, wit and thoroughness! Best Regards,
