A TOUR DESIGNED WITH YOU IN MIND

This Tour is usually a 4 Hour Tour, depending on how many stops you desire to make, and usually can be extended if you so desire. All our Tours are Specifically Designed for you! No two Tours are alike as all our Guests have different interests. If you wish to have lunch while on Tour, arrangements can be made.

 

Pick-Up and Drop-Off is usually at your Hotel. However, your Pick-Up and Drop-Off locations can be a Coffee Shop, Restaurant, Neighborhood, Broadway Show, or wherever you desire. We will call you before your Tour begins to find out where you wish to begin your Tour. Our Tours are all about you!

 

Your Tour will begin by your Driver/Tour Guide asking questions such as: "How many times have you visited New York City? What have you seen thus far during your visit? What is it that is most important for you to see and do?" Then, we point out on a New York City Map the Geographical Layout of Manhattan, the Boroughs, and Neighborhoods. And then we customize a Tour specifically designed for you and your interests. If you have a list of Sites, Stores, and Neighborhoods you wish to visit, we are here to accommodate your wishes.

 

SITES & NEIGHBORHOODS


Typically, we Tour you through the Upper Eastside including Madison Avenue, Museum Mile – including Guggenheim - Metropolitan Museum of Art – Frick Collection, Central Park, Upper Westside (we stop at Zabars the famous grocery store, see the Dakota Building where John Lennon lived; and visit Strawberry Fields in Central Park (you’re welcome to walk ½ mile across Central Park if you so desire to capture photographs), Museum of Natural History, Harlem (where you'll see the Largest Church in America – St. John The Divine, Grants Tomb, and Neighborhoods dating back to the late 1700's - 1880's) – Apollo Theater.  (Morris Jumel Mansion, and The Cloisters can also be visited upon request).  It’s all up to you!

 

Our Tours are flexible to meet your desires for what you wish to see and do. If you are already familiar with some of the Neighborhoods on this Tour, we'll make Neighborhood substitutions while on Tour.

 

EXPERIENCE THE CITY TO THE FULLEST


Throughout your Tour we will point out on the Map specifically where we are located in respect to your Hotel so you fully understand where Neighborhoods and places of interest are located. During your Tour we'll point out the contrast in Architecture from Neighborhood to Neighborhood, which makes New York City so unique and interesting, as no two Neighborhoods are exactly alike. We'll also recommend local restaurants within each Neighborhood where you may consider dining while you're visiting the City. We're glad to make reservations for you, as well.

 

If at any time you wish to enter a Store, Deli, or get out of your Tour vehicle to take photographs, Shop, or browse a Neighborhood, you are welcome to do so. We highly encourage bringing your camera, as there are so many photogenic buildings and sites throughout the City. 

 

All of our Enthusiastic, Entertaining and Knowledgeable Drivers are Licensed NYC Tour Guides, and English is their Native Language. (Foreign Language Tours can be arranged).

 

Please allow us the privilege of Touring you and your group throughout the great City of New York!
