NYC Shopping Tour Customer Reviews

Average Rating: 5 stars out of 5
Shopping

Overall it was interesting. Our guide Camber was great. The shopping wasn't exactly what I was thinking. I felt that the designers we were taken to were geared more towards the older crowd. I was looking forward to more of " Trendy" shopping. But it was interesting.

I was given this as a gift from a girlfriend last year. We scheduled the tour for my birthday this year and I can't think of a better way to spend the day. We loved meeting a few of the actual designers and the wholesale pricing of their designs was just too tempting. We decided it needed to be an annual girls' trip! I highly recommend!

Sarah was an awesome guide. I am from NY and never knew there were so many great places to shop. She was fun, informative, and honest. This was a birthday present for my mom, who is a true fashionista. We had a ball. Kudos to Sarah!

FABULOUS!!! We could not have had a better time! Our shopping tour with Molly was the best! Molly showed us around to stores found only in NYC and told us interesting stories behind each place. The time flew by so fast! I would HIGHLY recommend this as a gift for BFF to take together! My friends and I LOVED the day!!!

Questions about NYC Shopping Tour

Question: Is the Garment District Shopping Tour a private tour for just me and my guest?

Answer: This is not a private tour. There will be up to 10 additional people on the tour.
Question: How far can we expect to walk?

Answer: Expect to walk about 4 to 5 city blocks.
Question: I am looking for a fun gift for my girlfriend. Will I be able to go on this tour with her?

Answer: The tour is designed for women and only women's clothing will be offered. It is not recommended for men and the presence of a man may make some feel uncomfortable. Some showrooms do not have private dressing rooms. There is limited room so you would need to purchase a full price ticket if you wish to attend.
Question: Will the showrooms we visit accept any credit card?

Answer: Some will take credit cards and some only take cash. It is best to bring both. If you are not comfortable carrying enough cash for all of the showrooms there will be ATM machines along the way in between stops.
Question: I am thinking of taking my daughters on this tour as a Christmas gift. What kind of discounts can I expect?

Answer: Most of the showrooms offer wholesale or near wholesale prices. This translates into 50 to 70% off of retail.
Question: My sister loves clothes and I was thinking this would be a unique gift for her. Who are the Designers?

Answer: They are a mix of smaller successful names and the fascinating emerging stars. This is where the excitement begins: Best not to come with an item in mind, but rather to shop for pieces you have never seen before and will be thrilled to have in your wardrobe.
