Guide #71659
Hello! I'm originally from the beautiful island of Ireland, but for the past 17 years, I've been calling New York City home. After falling in love with the city's energy, culture, and diverse history, I knew I had to share that passion with others. That's how I found my calling as a tour guide. I became a guide because I love telling stories—whether it's about the hidden corners of the city, iconic landmarks, or the fascinating history that shaped this vibrant metropolis. Over the years, I've had the privilege of showing visitors from around the world what makes New York so special. There's always something new to discover, and I feel incredibly fortunate to share that sense of awe with my guests. Beyond guiding, I'm passionate about history, art, music, and connecting people to the unique essence of New York. I firmly believe that every tour should be a personalized experience, so if you have any special requests or particular interests for your tour, I would be delighted to customize it to meet your criteria. Whether it's a deep dive into the city’s history, a focus on hidden gems, or a theme-based tour, I'm here to craft an experience that's just right for you. I look forward to showing you the New York I love and helping you make unforgettable memories in this amazing city!

Great experience! Communication back & forth, regarding the family history, very timely. We did not know how or when our relative arrived in America. Earl discovered he came to America, as a child, before Ellis Island existed. But Earl also discovered records of his future wife arriving at Ellis island. Gave us a folder with copies of documents about our relative so now...
We had a fantastic private Bites & Crime tour with Earl in Feb 2026, and it exceeded our expectations. The tour was relaxed and well paced, giving us time to fully enjoy the history, stories, and surroundings. Earl is easy-going, flexible, and extremely knowledgeable. We loved the blend of NYC history, crime stories, neighborhood insights, and a few movie set locations...
