New York City Must-See Walking Tour

We have years of experience creating unique, and individualized itineraries for visitors and while this is a public tour we bring the same approach to this tour.

This isn't the same type of tour that other operators offer. It is created from scratch based on what we believe is most important to show you - not what other operators' think you want to see.

This is a WALKING TOUR. We will utilize public transportation when needed. Cost of public transportation is not included so please bring a metrocard or be ready to tap-your-card/phone on the turnstyle.
