Superhero Tour of New York

This is such a fun tour! If you’re a big superhero fan visiting New York, definitely make some time for this. Paul is a great guide and will point out some wonderful places for pictures and even take some for you.

The value you get with Paul as your tour guide is beyond what you pay. This gentleman not only knows the field of comics and how they correlate with NYC but he knows a lot about NYC in general.
At the time I’m writing this it has been 3 years since I moved to NYC and I still was very educated on the history of the city, superheroes and anything else along the way. Paul has been in the business of comics in one form or another his entire adult life. He know origins of origins. He know the stories of comic characters as well as the stories of the writers.
About the tour it self, you’ll get to see where many of the movies and scenes were shot in the last 15 – 20 years and at the end of the tour Paul offers a little surprise. I went to this with no expectations and was very surprised.
Paul includes kids who are along for the ride. I went on it with a friend who was visiting and it’s was interesting for us to say the least.

My husband and I took this tour during our weekend getaway to NYC. The tour guide Paul was a delight. He was full of so much information that my brain stopped processing after about hour two! We got to see lots of comic book locales and NYC tourist spots. Well worth the money

I think I am just one of those people that love guided tours whatever the topic may be. My kids and I took this tour and we were charmed by how much this guide knew about comics. He gave us the whole history on how the first comic strip from the Sunday papers came to be.
We made several stops on our tour, mostly buildings where comics worked and places where movies based on comics were filmed. One of the stops was Grand Central Station. Our, guide, I believe his name was Eton said that while many scenes were filmed at Grand Central station, they can only be filmed during the hours of 12 midnight to 4 am. Gives you an idea how difficult those scenes are especially if they need to be retaken.
I won’t give too much away on this review, but I will say this man will answer any question you have about comics, particularly Superman and Batman. Very patient and congenial. It was a good two hour walk so for people who don’t mind walking.

After living a whole year in New York with almost no time to visit it, I decided to book this tour with a friend.
I got to know about it by chance 6 months before while visiting Jim Hanley’s comic book shop next to the Empire State University. Paul was there talking to the people he was taking on a tour that day and I just was captivated. So one of the last things I did before leaving the Big Apple was his tour.
I would have spent the whole day with this awesome professional. Not only was an exciting tour around the city, but the stories this man knows about great, great people he has worked with (ask him about his work in Batman!) are just worth more than money.
I really enjoyed his talking and the pictures he showed us during the walk.
The price is great and the length was good (not too long, not short at all).
If you have passion for comics and NYC. this is your tour and he is your man.
PS: Don’t forget to end the tour hungry, so he can take you to an awesome secret joint for lunch.
