Michael D. - Private Tour Guide. I am a licensed New York City Sightseeing Guide and President of the Guides Association of New York City (GANYC). A life long New Yorker, my family roots in this great city date back to the 1850's. There is a lot of NYC in my DNA. As an experienced traveler I appreciate how important a guide can be for enhancing a visitor's experience. Getting to know a new place with a local makes all the difference. New York City - packed with things to do, places to go and people to see - can be a little overwhelming without the expertise of a native to show you the ropes. My tours will help you get the most out of your visit to our beautiful Metropolis. My goal as your guide is to help you fall in love with this city. I have given tours on boat, bus, foot, car and subway. Customized tours built around your interests are a specialty. Contact me with any questions. I look forward to providing you with a memorable and exciting visit to The Big Apple. Licensed New York City Tour Guide by The NYC Department of Consumer Affairs. President, National Federation of Tourist Guide Associations-USA Past President, Guides Association of New York City Licensed Washington DC guide. Certified International Tour Manager - International Guide Academy, Denver CO. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver. I do local, New York City tours only. No over the road trips.

    Michael was perfect on time, very friendly and knew a lot of New York. In 4 hours we have seen the most important monuments of NY and my two sons of 17 and 16 were very pleased with his histories of NY. It was the perfect introduction to this wonderful city. Thanks

    Mike was a great tour guide, knew everything there is to know about New York and lot's of stories. He is a real gentleman, took into consideration that one of our party could not walk too well, and thought of ways to get to places without too much walking.

    Michael knows New York. He set up an incredible tour for us after I had given him a list of places we wanted to see. More importantly he is a really nice and friendly person. Thanks Michael !!!
