Here are the comments:
Great! Saw everything we wanted. Very knowledgeable. So fun, kids loved it.
We customized the tour to make sure we saw the dinosaur mummy, lots of other dinosaurs, sea life. I showed them something special to me, a fossil that I found when I was seven that I sent to the Museum of Natural History.
I worked in sights from the movie, Night at the Museum, such as Dum Dum, the Easter Island head; Dexter, the Capuchin Monkey; the Ostrich.
I also got us special access into the hands on lab for kids.
Currently, I'm developing a tour about the links between the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Central Park.

Hi Jared,
Just want to say thank you for a wonderful tour of the Met (Metropolitan Museum of Art) on December 23rd.
My daughter and I really enjoyed the experience! When we head back to NYC …we are going book another tour with you.
[I'm] spreading the good word of your talent!
Happy New Year!

And here is a review she left about me:
Private Tour of the Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York City | 5 Stars
Great tour ... what a wonderful way to bypass lines, start enjoying the museum immediately with your own knowledgeable guide.
Jared focused on our interests and educated us on the art we were passionate about. A loved the ease in which we moved around the museum and the personal touch from our guide. The only way to see this incredible museum!

Hi Jared,
I hope this note finds you well!
It
has been about two years since we last spoke and since you led a
private bus tour for my friends and family after my wedding.
I am not
kidding when I tell you that my family still talks about that tour - and
it is usually my grandparents from the Bronx and Brooklyn that are the
most complimentary of the experience. Being New Yorkers themselves,
they can be a tough crowd but you blew them away!
On
a separate note, my mom is celebrating her ____ birthday this year and
asked for a NYC "experience". She has been on your tour, and taken a ... tour of Central Park, but I think she would really love a tour of
Arthur Ave, or even Little Italy. ...

"Thanks Jared!! Great tour again! I'll be in touch!"
I did two tours of Public Art in Lower Manhattan for an adult education class' trips to NYC.
Less than 90 minutes and we visited sculptures in the Financial District and the World Trade Center. Abstract ones like those by Isamu Noguchi, Mark di Suvero, Louise Nevelson, duBuffet, and Fritz Koenig. We also see more realistic ones by J. Seward Johnson, and the America's Response sculpture near the 9/11 Memorial, as well as a couple by John Quincy Adams Ward of George Washington and Integrity at the New York Stock Exchange. We also experienced the Oculus building by Calatrava, and Federal Hall.
I wish we had time for the doors of Trinity Church, and the financial district sculptures of the Charging Bull and the Fearless Girl.

"We had so much fun that the kids asked to do another tour with Jared the next day. I could rave about Jared's endless knowledge about New York, his great sense of humor, and his ability to simultaneously corral and entertain 5 jet lagged family members (ages 9 to 68) for an entire
day.... but I think my 9 year old said it best: "Jared is awesome!""
We experienced:
Grand Central
The
Subway
The Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. I got them in better places on the lines or cues, and the best angles for pictures.
?The Charging Bull & Fearless Girl sculptures
Federal Hall
Great Eataly gelato
for a break.
World Trade Center and its 9/11 Memorial
Architecture photography
A real city bus ride through Chinatown to the Jewish Lower East Side
The foodie and 'regular guy' local Essex Market
An old fashioned candy store
and Katz'
Jewish style deli.
For my Command Performance:
I showed them examples of Brooklyn Bridge photography and paintings from my picture album, then we toured the
Brooklyn Bridge
We experienced the Flatiron
Building in Madison Square and
concluded at a Jewish style soda shop.
