Better Adventures

Over New Years 2013, Geovanni provided an exceptional "architectural" tour for my boyfriend and I through lower, mid and upper Manhattan as well as sections of Harlem. Geovanni ensured we travelled in style and provided us with a luxury town car and a well humoured driver. Our guide possessed a stack of local knowledge and over the course of 3 hours we discovered numerous photo taking vantage points - photos we will later use to decorate the apartment in Toronto. A few of the architectural highlights included the old Ghostbusters firehall, the Royal Tenenbaum's house in Harlem and the majesty of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. While touring the cathedral, the late afternoon sun touched the stain glass in the most magnificent way, spraying mauve hue across the interior. Geovanni had obviously done his research and we appreciated seeing hidden gems packed with fascinating stories. This was my 3rd year touring with Geovanni and we're already planning our 4th expedition with him again in the coming months. HIGHLY recommend!

Our Better Adventures tour of Central park was a highlight of the summer! Our tour guide Geovanni was extremely knowledgeable and interjected the right amount of detail about the geography and history of the Park as he helped us explore and discover so much that we never knew about this fabulous NYC treasure. The right guide makes all the difference, and we were incredibly impressed with his passion, articulateness, and clear desire for everyone on the tour to walk away with a deep appreciation for the Park and its central role in NYC. No doubt that we are going to call upon Better adventures and Geovanni to enrich other city adventures. Highly recommended!

Geovanni did a great job of leading our tour through Central Park on the first sticky day of summer with our 6, 9 & 12 year olds in tow. He had tons of knowledge that he was able to share with all of us and made sure to point out lots of interesting things that you might otherwise miss. In our 2 1/2 hour tour we had a great walk and saw all of the must see sights in the park.

Better Adventures surpasssed any expectations that I had of the tour. Our group was diverse and Geovanni made sure that everyone was enjoying themselves and learning. He was interactive and very knowledgable about the whole city.
