    Rob is an excellent tour guide! We took his Gilded Age tour today. He is knowledgeable and thoughtfully answered our questions throughout the 3 hours we were together. He was very intune with our surroundings, blending us in with the ebb and flow of pedestrian traffic. He drew on his experience living in and observing the history of the city and combined it with thorough research into the development and changes of New York City through the c. 1840s-1900s. He shared a lot of salient photos, drawings, maps, and even directory listing to showcase the businesses and homes. We would recommend his tours!!
