New York City’s Photo Tour Company, PhotoTrek Tours, Celebrates 5th Anniversary

With more than 300 positive reviews and a 4.9 out of 5 rating from customers, New York City’s personalized photo tour company PhotoTrek Tours is a perfect way for tourists, families, friends and honeymooners to ensure they have one of the most memorable trips of their life.

New York, NY (PRWEB) May 12, 2009—PhotoTrek Tours, a pioneer in the travel and tourism industry by combining an officially licensed New York City tour with professional photographs, is celebrating its five-year anniversary in 2009.

For too many years, tourists traveling to New York could get a tour anywhere, but they had to take their own photos so few of the pictures would actually include them in it.

PhotoTrek Tours has changed the way travelers can experience their time in New York City. Perfect for a couple, a family or a small group, PhotoTrek Tours offer a personalized private walking tour of New York City where a professional photographer will take pictures of the group and deliver a CD with their digital images to their hotel within 24 hours.

Founder and licensed NYC tour guide Marc Samuels will teach people everything they wish to know about the city while taking their photos in Time Square, Central Park, on the Brooklyn Bridge or by several of the many landmarks and neighborhoods that makes New York City the most recognizable in the world.

PhotoTrek Tours, which offers two and three hour tours, has been highlighted in many news publications and radio shows across the world as a unique thing to do in New York City. PhotoTrek Tours was also featured in New York magazine as one of the top tours in New York City.

Samuels, a native New Yorker, said: “We are providing a completely unique tour of New York City. This isn’t just about the photographs. I offer a true, officially licensed tour of New York City, including suggesting restaurants, places to shop, places to get half-priced theater tickets, and how to use the subway. When you are done with the tour, you will know the secrets that only native New Yorkers know.”

Samuels said his tours, which are all private, often sell out, so he highly recommends making a reservation prior to a visit. Guests are from all over the world and include honeymooners, families, friends or couples who want to be photographed together while participating in a tour with great insights.

More than 300 people have given reviews of PhotoTrek Tours, with an average rating of 4.9 out of 5. A detailed calendar on the website provides the dates and times of availability.

Julie and Matt from the United Kingdom came away as two of the many people thrilled with their experience. They raved: “An absolutely outstanding tour that we would highly recommend! It was awesome! We felt so relaxed and so famous! The photos are absolutely stunning and we love them!”

Patrick and Cecilia came out in March and said: “(We) just got back a few days ago and our photos are stunning! Marc’s a great guy, fantastic photographer and he really loves the city.”

They continued: “Since we were in NYC for just 2 more days this was perfect. For people that don’t like to get their picture taken, this is a great tour to book, because you’re just walking down the streets, going on the subway, talking a lot and making jokes, it’s almost as if the photographer is part of your group. At first we got worried that we would feel awkward, but we really didn’t. I can’t tell you enough how much we’ve enjoyed this photo tour! Great pictures and lots of sightseeing. The perfect way to cover your city trip!”

Samuels said he hopes to expand this unique service to other cities in the world as customers request it.
