Worth It

Melissa_K, Nov 2024

Our guide was great. It was helpful to get tips for shopping each location. A wide range of thrifts to choose from, so the tour covered everyone’s style tastes. A few more styling tips along the way would have made it 5-stars and feel more bespoke.

Thrifting Fun

Diane_G, Nov 2024

We had so much fun with Isra. I was there with my sister, 19-year-old granddaughter, and her mother. Even though I wasn't really into shopping, I went for my granddaughter who had a blast and came back with bags of clothes. It was a packed four hours of shopping with several store visits and a stop at a flea market. We never would have found these shops by ourselves.

Shopping Heaven

Kate is a fantastic tour guide! Pleasant and knowledge. The locations were great and I got so many deals. I’d do it again 😀

Totally worth it

Larinda_M, Sep 2024

I signed up for the tour completely not expecting to find much because I'm a plus size woman. But Sammy was so accommodating and determined to find clothing items for me AND SHE DID! I was very pleased with the experience. I left with bags of deals just like the tour description said I would.

Super fun and unique!

Jeanette_R, Aug 2024

Mecca was amazing. She was personable, knowledgeable and very in the know about fashion. Loved how she shared tips and vast knowledge of what fits well. Would definitely do it again.

Sammi Sammi - A pure blast

darryl_u, Jun 2023

I booked this trip with my granddaughter (who sadly couldn't travel to the US in the end), so I dragged my husband along for the ride. I contacted Sammi in advance of what I was after and she tailored the trip to our requirements. There was just the 3 of us and Sammi took us to a flea market, couple of thrift shops and a pizza place. I found a second hand handbag I was after and the funny part, we got a plain pizza box (husband needed to pack vinyl he had purchased). Sammi was a joy, full of life and helped make the afternoon go very quickly and gave us great advice and support on our final day in New York. Would strongly recommend this trip. Thanks Steph and Darryl xxx

Thrifting New York City style.

The experience was well organized. Participants were asked what they were looking for. We then visited three stores and had a short break in between. Loved it. Would recommend it wholeheartedly.

Sammy is amazing!

Sarah_K, Oct 2022

This was a highlight of our trip. Isra took us to great consignment shops and her eye for what we like was spot on. I ended up buying most of what she suggested! Isra was fun and funny and it was great to spend the day with her. I also love that I have a few new pieces of clothing that will have them memories of NYC thrifting attached to them.

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Sarah, we absolutely loved hosting you! So happy you adored Isra!!

BOOK THIS TOUR NOW!

Deb_R, Oct 2022

Oh my gosh! This was absolutely the most fun we had while visiting NY. Isra, our guide was delightful. She got to know us, our like and dislikes, fashion icons and introduced us to the Thrifting Gods (we are believers!). She was one of the most authentic people you will ever want to meet. She challenged us as well, to look at items we might have passed by. Sammy, the owner was just as sweet and engaging. You will love this tour from beginning to end and leave with some of the most memorable items for your wardrobe! 100% recommended!

Brilliant tour

Gary_M, Nov 2019

Sammy is a brilliant host on this tour well worth the money especially if you are into thrifting lots of bargains Would do again

Response from Host, Feb 2020

I'm so glad you found my tour - and brought your daughter and husband with you! I hope to see you again! Please visit NYC and thrift with me again soon ;-)
