    Amigo Tours gets strong praise for its guides, with Jorge, Diego, Daniel, Jay, and Estalina earning enthusiastic shout-outs for their knowledge, humor, and storytelling abilities that bring New York's history and neighborhoods to life. The day trips to DC and Philadelphia are popular choices, and when things run smoothly, travelers appreciate seeing iconic sites with engaging commentary. Bus drivers also get credit for navigating the chaos of New York traffic safely and professionally. However, there are serious operational concerns that can't be ignored. Multiple recent reviews detail a catastrophic breakdown on a Niagara Falls tour that left passengers stranded for six hours with no food, water, or adequate communication, turning what should have been a 17-hour trip into a 24-hour ordeal. Beyond this incident, there's a pattern of rigid customer service and timing issues. Some groups were left behind for arriving just a minute late, while others report being abandoned at meeting points. The disconnect between strict punctuality expectations for customers and the company's response to its own failures creates real frustration. These aren't isolated complaints, they point to inconsistent standards that might make travelers hesitant, especially for longer tours.

    We had a great time with our guide Stalina on the Statue of Liberty tour. She's fantastic. Thank you so much.
