Wow, Wow and WOW! What an amazing morning with Tim! My daughter is the Hamilton fan in the family but even I was drawn in to the stories and history on this amazing tour. The tour convenes at Coenties Alley, which is a park like location that was easy to find. Once arriving, our tour guide was there right on time and began our tour from that starting point. I think one of the things that makes this tour distinctive is the use of the photos and videos to show what went into making the show and also the history of the story of Hamilton. Tim has done a great job of putting together an interesting and authentic tour experience with details that I am sure I never would have known without going on this tour! I don’t want to give away any spoilers but I will tell you that I found the information we learned to be very interesting and my daughter (14) said this was the highlight of our weekend! We have taken tours all over Europe and the US and I have to say that his enthusiasm and knowledge made this a wonderful experience. Cannot say enough good things about this – go and experience it for yourself!!

These tours are SO MUCH FUN. We were in NYC for a week and booked both the Act I and Hamiltour. Our kids are a bit Broadway-obsessed but you dont have to be to love this tour. Tim is funny and engaging, and hes a treasure trove of knowledge about Broadway (past and present) and New York! His insider stories about what happens onstage and off were fascinating and he took the time to engage with our kids, sharing anecdotes about their favorite shows and actors. I cant believe how much we learned in under 2 hours - our only regret is not booking Acts II and III (already planning that for our next trip). Thank you Tim!

I have taken the Broadway Up Close walking tour Act 1 twice with different groups. The tour is amazing the owner has done a tremendous amount of research about Broadway Theaters and other landmarks in the city. Many of the people in the groups I have toured with have taken other tours in the city and we all like this tour the best. My family will be taking all of the tours that BUC offers very soon and we will recommend them to everyone we know that is traveling to the city!

Having taken the BUC Act I, II & II, I was eagerly anticipating taking the new "Hamiltour". It was all I anticipated and more. As with all the BUC tours, Tim interweaves historical fact with interesting anecdotes from the Broadway production of Hamilton. It was informative, fact filled and oh so much fun. If you are a theater buff or just a student of history, "Hamiltour" is for you. You should also consider taking all of the BUC tours. You will not be disappointed.
