Masterful Storytelling! Mandy is a masterful story teller and manages to engage all ages, including a 5-year old. She brings history to life with humor--her characters are rich and relatable. I would do this tour again in a heartbeat.

Great experience with a very enthusiastic host! It was a lovely way to explore grand central station and I learned a lot
Emily9/24/2021John is simply amazing and his shared knowledge of Grand Central should be made into a documentary!!!!
Gladys Helena9/18/2021 - Absolutely the best way to see Grand Central Terminal! We really enjoyed taking this tour with John. His love for the terminal and it’s history was apparent through his enthusiasm and knowledge. We loved learning about all the beautiful and quirky things about GCT that make it such a wonderful place to visit. Any visit to NYC should include this tour beach add it holds such a special place in the history of the city. Ask for John DeSanto as your guide and you will see things that no one else gets to see! cynthiakL6243FM9/17/2021Best Tour of Grand Central The guide was very enthusiastic and clearly enjoyed what he was doing. We actually went overtime and everyone in the group was happy about it. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Beachlover00000000-09/12/2021
- History and hidden treasures. Highly recommend GCT is a treasured resource to NYC. Ben was an exceptional guide sharing insights, pointing out hidden gems and the rich history of the building and railroad travel in NYC. Too often travelers pass thru this masterpiece without the time to appreciate it. If you think you’ve seen it all, this tour is highly recommended. marylovelltx9/11/2021
People judged when I booked the tour at grand central but it was so worth it. Loved all the history and Ben was fantastic.

Ben, our tour guide, was the most loving and experienced guide ever. He knew so much and had the best energy throughout the tour!!! The best!!! 289cristinan8/14/2021A fabulous adventure exploring Grand Central and Penn Stations and the NY Subway! I scheduled 2 private tours for my husband and our 13 year old grandson, the Secrets of Grand Central Station and The Remnants of Penn Station at 2 separate times on one day, both with Justin. Justin suggested it might be more fun for our grandson if we combined the tours and rode the subway to include the secrets of the NY Subway, usually offered as a separate tour. The resulting tour was fabulous! Justin's sensitivity to what our grandson would enjoy most was spot on, and his visuals brought it all to life. My husband and I were thrilled with Justin's attention to detail, his personable manner and genuine knowledge of and enthusiasm for his subject matter. Our grandson, a real train enthusiast, hasn't stopped talking about it yet, and neither have we. Justin combines all the perfect traits of a guide, and anyone able to schedule a tour with him will have a most memorable experience. His give aways at the end of pictures of Penn station before and after, etc. will be lasting mementoes of our wonderful experience. Untapped tours is amazing with its unique offerings, excellent guides and ease of scheduling. ceejay0698/10/2021
