My parents sailed by the Statue of Liberty in 1948, seeking as millions before them, a new life filled with possibilities as they fled war ravaged Europe. Since I earned my NYC Tour Guide License in 2006, I have had the privilege to tell their story and that of New York City to countless visitors with real stories such as those my parents and family which includes persons making their living in fashion design, film making, church work, music, Real Estate and medicine. This helps give you an authentic sense of this City and region. This City holds a fascinating history and I will tell you the many stories of the City along with captivating facts and figures. My tours of the City comes alive as I share up close and personal life stories and those of the people; including myself working with firefighters as a their chaplain and at the World Trade Center with victim families and survivors. I have brought guests to almost every nook and cranny in The City in my capacity as a licensed and professional New York City Tour Guide, coordinating corporate groups, school groups, family visits, individual travelers and more. My credentials include: - New York City Tour Guide License. - Washington DC Tour Guide License. - Member of GANYC (Guide Association of New York City) - Post Secondary Degrees in History, Theology and Political Science. - Firefighter Chaplain. - Chauffeur's License. If you wish a comprehensive several day experience in the City and / or along the East Coast, please ask me to design a Custom Tour for you. We can do Washington, Philadelphia, Amish Country, Boston and even that 'natural wonder of the world', Niagara Falls! I guarantee a terrific experience. I live it; you will love it.

Remo is good in communication & friendly during our tour. Thank you for showing us around the iconic Lady Liberty! For me, NYC is never complete without a visit in the Liberty and Ellis Island where it all began. Until our next East Coast trip, Remo!

Our tour consisted of Historic Broadway theatres, garment district, diamond...
