This tour company clearly knows how to deliver memorable NYC experiences, with guides who consistently get glowing praise for their knowledge and enthusiasm. Joseph K and Sergio stand out repeatedly in reviews, with visitors describing them as passionate, informative, and genuinely talented at keeping groups engaged even in challenging conditions like massive holiday crowds or freezing weather. The tours span diverse experiences from Harlem gospel services to Brooklyn Bridge walks to Christmas lights, and guides are available in multiple languages including Spanish and French. What really sets them apart is the flexibility and attention to detail. They handle everything from virtual workplace presentations to customized multi-borough tours, and reviewers emphasize how well-organized everything feels. The gospel experience seems particularly popular, though one visitor noted their specific church service lacked the gospel music they expected (possibly weather-related). The company works with city passes like Explorer Pass, making booking convenient. With guides who clearly love what they do and an owner who builds tours around genuine passion for NYC's neighborhoods, you're likely to get an authentic, educational experience that goes beyond typical tourist surface-level content.
Inside Out Tours hosted a Virtual Tour at my workplace and it was great! Very inciteful with lots of visuals and details related to the Rights Movement and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. If anybody is looking for a way to educate a group of people virtually, I would highly recommend!
