Guide #57873
With so many places to visit and an extensive subway system, I know New York City can feel overwhelming. There's nothing I love more than helping someone feel at ease and have a great experience exploring the amazing areas of New York. I'm a licensed NYC tour guide offering private, personalized, and fun full and half day neighborhood walking tours for families and small groups. With every tour, I aim to help people learn to navigate around town, hear great stories, capture wonderful photos, laugh a lot, and make amazing memories together. I am passionate, energetic, quick-witted, and love making people say "wow" at all the sites. I'm originally from Orlando, FL, but have lived in numerous places, including San Francisco, Atlanta, and even Sydney, Australia. Prior to becoming a guide, I worked for years helping well-respected non-profit organizations tell their stories and raise funds to support their critical work. For the past 11 years, my wife and I have called New York City home. We absolutely love living here and are always out exploring the city. I'm also a Broadway fanatic seeing more than 100 shows a year and am happy to offer suggestions for what to see and the best way to get tickets. It'll be an amazing day out in the city for you and your traveling companions. I can't wait to meet you.

Adam was extremely personable, knowledgeable, informative, and prompt. He was happy to have email exchanges in advance so that the tour was tailored to our interests. He also was considerate and proactive in suggesting that we postpone the tour a week to wait for Brooklyn snow clearance and an easing of the frigid outdoor conditions; he kindly and wisely thought of it...

Thank You, Robert and Jeanne! It was so great to spend a morning with you and show you some great neighborhoods in Brooklyn. I'm so glad you had a great time. And it was a good decision to move the tour. Thank you for your flexibility.
Had a delightful time with Adam. He was terrific. We have used Toursbylocal often all over the world and Adam was right up there. Told us great stories we didn’t know. Was engaging. Personable. Smart. Introduced us to Matt Damon when we passed by his brownstone. OK, he didn’t, but we did see where Matt has an apartment. We highly recommend Adam.

Thank you Arnie and Terry! It was a great day out. I'm so glad you enjoyed yourselves1
Adam did a fantastic job hosting the tour of our family of 4 today~ me, my husband, my 16 old daughter and 19 year old son. It was our family's first trip to NYC. The tour was fun, informative that we not only enjoyed the view, learned how to get around New York taking subway, key events, but also learned a lot about history of New York. We cannot wait to visit New York...
