Is it ok to leave a tip?

Tipping & Gratuity Etiquette: Yes please and thank you! Tipping is a social custom in America that can be confusing for travelers. It is expected by service staff to receive a tip/gratuity for a job well done. Service staffs are your waiters, bartenders, and tour guides to mention a few. The tip should be calculated as a percentage of your total bill as follows: 10% usually means you just happy, 15% usually means all was very good and 20% for a job well done. Anything over 20% is really your desire to make your guide feel extra special!
Is this tour good for children?

Yes, of course it is! The private experience is the best way for the entire family to enjoy exploring the City. Our guides are fully cognitive of our audience to ensure everyone is having a great time. To that end, families with 4-years old or younger are kindly requested to buy-out the tour or book a private tour. Keep in mind that you will also need to bring the required car seat for safety.
