Super Hero Fan

Great experience in NYC
Seth was a very nice and knowledgeable tour guide. A completely different view of New York. A really great tour!
Great tour
We were lucky to be on a small tour, just two guests and Seth, our guide. Seth was very personable. He had great knowledge and anecdotes to share on the history of comics and the Manhattan locations used in films – almost too much for us to remember! Even though the weather was less than perfect, we had a great time. I would recommend this tour, especially for people interested in the history and culture of comic books. The pace was good and it seemed like we covered a lot of – both Marvel & DC.
