New York City Underground Railroad and Slavery Tour

Off the Beaten Path and Hidden History Tours of NYC

Inside Out Tours offers “off the beaten path” and hidden history tours of NYC. Established by two native New Yorkers, we highlight establishments that locals frequent, exploring the rich food, history, architecture and culture of these communities. On our tours, you do not simply observe from a distance but you can taste regional food, hear jazz and gospel music, view street art and see historically significant sites while fully engaging your senses in NYC’s vibrant and diverse neighborhoods. We can complement these experiences with immersive workshops and classes for specialized groups.

Inside Out Tours is not only a tour company but also a social enterprise giving back to local communities. We believe that tourism, when planned with respect and sensitivity, can be a part of the empowerment of a community and the preservation of its cultural traditions and historical sights. From local churches to community and business organizations, we have forged a relationship of trust with NYC residents and institutions, and believe in giving back to the community. Through partnerships and donations, Inside Out Tours supports local charitable organizations, with a special emphasis on supporting youth programs and cultural institutions.
