The easiest way to see a play. We were in NYC over the holiday weekend and all the red seat tickets were sold out, and lines were out the door for on-call tickets, it was a nightmare. Thank God we ordered these tickets with GetYourGuide! By far the easiest ticketing experience I've had on Broadway!

He was a lot of fun and told us a lot of “insider secrets” from auditions to old stories about the theaters themselves. He was upbeat and engaging and we had a great time.

Really enjoyed it, a museum that is more what I like as interactive and entertaining. The end ride is spectacular and worth a visit for that alone.

This was the perfect tour to check out a city and get to know a lot of things before you visit each one.

Very quick entrance

I loved the gardens and the palace inside. Everything was amazing.
