Growing up in New York City, I can't imagine living anywhere else. I usually walk around different neighborhoods when I'm off and, try new restaurants that I can afford. I'd love to share my personal New York City stories with you! Most popular tours of mine are history and food walking tours. I also conduct museum and driving tours. All can be customized to your itinerary and preferences. Like one dog year equals seven human years, one New York City day is seven days in other cities, if not more! People from all over the world come here "to make it", bringing their rich cultures along in the pursuit of many things besides happiness. America started right here in New York City! From the gleaming towers to hotdog stands, from the austere looking businessmen to subway artists, from the hustle bustle midtown to the serene Central Park, hop on my tours and let's explore! "London is satisfied, Paris is resigned, but New York is always hopeful. Always it believes that something good is about to come off, and it must hurry to meet it.

Sara C.January 2026Robert Z. was born to be a tour guide. He's warm, engaging, funny, and a gifted storyteller. He made me feel welcome and interested in everything he had to share. The food stops were perfect! Under the radar, places I would never have thought to go to on my own.
