Central Park Unique Guided Landmark Tour

The Central Park tour is a unique full-park guided tour! We will start at Central Park North (the 110th Street entrance) and work our way all the way down to Central Park South (ends at Columbas Circle, 59th Street). This tour is perfect for those who want to see both the landmarks of the park along with the less-known spots that only a local would know. Expect to see plenty of photo-worthy spots! I will provide both official park trivia and personal insights.
The tour is approximately 5-6 miles and will take about 4-5 hours to complete.

This is the private tour option for you and your party! If you would rather join a public tour with other random parties please go back and select "Half Day Full Central Park Walking Tour".
