A funny evening’s entertainment
Myself and my two daughters had a great evening on The Ride. We laughed a lot and the entertainers were fab. Definitely recommend this experience if you’re in NYC!

What people say
Very disappointed to be honest
Very disappointed to be honest. Actually felt very amateurish!! For what it costs I was expecting so much more!! The two ‘hosts’ on the bus did their best but fell way short of proper entertainers!! And why oh why do we need to be kept reminded of Covid and people getting furloughed!!! Not what I want to hear when I’m being entertained!! Unfortunately I won’t be recommending The Ride to any friends going to New York.
Well worth your money!
The girls on this bus was just amazing. Energetic and lively. They mad the best jokes and really made the experience worth it. The bus was clean and well air conditioned. The ride was smooth and the entertainment was fantastic!

My kids and me had a BLAST at the RIDE , we highly recommend it....so so FUN !!!!!
Not worth the price
The experience was not worth the price. For a one hour ride down the same roads but just in the opposite direction was not worth the price. I thought it would be more live performances but it was only about 5 props. The guides were hilarious minus the racial overtone of the one guide who called out my name and proceeded to twerk as if I inspired her to do so because of my race.
Fun ride for everyone
Fun ride for everyone! Great to sit on bus facing the street and having fun with all of the street walkers. If you have walked NYC…great time to sit for 1 1/2 hours and reboot.
We loved the Ride!
We bought this experience for our daughter’s 18th birthday. We paid extra for the front seats and to do a shout out for her birthday. They went above and beyond wishing her a happy birthday then having the street performers include her name in a rap, in a song, in a street performer’s comedy routine and more. It was so funny. Thank you so much for making this such a memorable event.
We experienced The Ride on Dec 18th
We experienced The Ride on Dec 18th on the 7:15 pm ride. It was a great experience and worth every penny. It was fun and very interactive. Our hosts were very funny and made the ride fun. I would highly recommend doing this while in NYC!
We had a blast on the RIDE
We had a blast on the RIDE! The 2 MC's were so cute and funny and had such great energy it got the whole bus going! The pop up street performers were really good too. Especially liked the ballet dancers. What a fun thing to do in NYC for the Holidays!
I really enjoyed this ride
I really enjoyed this ride! So even as much as I know New York City, I loved the fun facts and the street entertainment. Everyone is very talented!
Overpriced
I think its overpriced! Better spend your USD79 for broadway or big bus in NYC where its more interesting. The trip is just one hour and it covers only few blocks from Timesquare and the performances are just mediocre
Bad company
It says fun for the whole family. Not recommend for children under six. I purchased 4 front row tickets, knowing my very well-behaved 7 mo old grandson would be coming along. When we were ready to go, the guy loading the bus told us that no children under 3 could ride. Pretty crappy. Only three of us could go and I am out $94.34.
Great guides and great ride
Great guides and great ride. Loved it.
Good experience,,!
Amazing experience with some unexpected…
Amazing experience with some unexpected surprises. Our guide was very knowledgeable and hilarious at the same time. Very fun and would definitely do it again once back in NY.
This was a ton of fun!

What a wonderful bus trip!
What a wonderful bus trip! I rode the bus on the first day of NY trip. Easy, funny trip. Later I looked around the landmarks you introduced to us.
Amazing Staff.
Really enjoyed the experience, wasn't sure what to expect initially but was more than pleasantly surprised by the end. The street performers are amazingly talented people and the crew on board worked hard to get a not so vocal crowd involved at all times. Funny guys too and kept us all entertained. Would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting a quick and alternative tour option in NYC. Keep up the food work guys 👍
A great fun experience for all ages
A great fun experience for all ages. The guides are funny and knowledgeable. Lots of laughter and a good singsong.
