I'm a native New Yorker and I have a great love and knowledge of New York City, from Times Square and The Great White Way to Brooklyn and many lesser-known but no less interesting sites. We can visit Harlem, the home of Jazz in NYC and of course the Battery to view the Statue of Liberty. All of New York's neighborhoods have a story to tell - from Wall Street to Central Park West where many celebrities dwell. I tell true and fascinating stories of New York's past and more recent history. I'll give you something to write home about.

New York City is a city of wonders. Let me show you the city I've loved & called home all my life. I was born in Queens, NY, one of NYC's 5 boroughs. I've lived in Manhattan & Brooklyn, now I'm back in Queens. The borough & county of Queens, NY is the single most ethnically diverse county in the United States. One of the many things I love about my home city & borough is that I can walk 10 minutes & enjoy the very best pizza or more refined Italian food, I can have authentic middle eastern fare; shawarma or falafel from a street vendor. There are genuine Greek, Thai, Sushi, Georgian, Uzbek, Russian, French, Turkish & Ethiopian restaurants all within 30 minutes of my apartment. Of course, Queens is the location of the original United Nations, we can see the building where the modern state of Israel was created if you come visit me! Both New York's city airports are located in Queens and If I pick you up at Laguardia or JFK, you'll learn a little more about Queens. Then, we'll see much more of NYC!
We'll meet at your hotel or at the airport or cruise port. We'll drive through NYC streets past some of the great monumental sights of New York and we'll get out at numerous stops along the way. We may visit Central Park, Rockefeller Center & St. Patrick's Cathedral. We'll certainly spend some time in Times Square and we take a stroll through Grand Central Terminal. We'll see the famous New York Public Library and the equally famous Flatiron Building. We'll cruise through Greenwich Village, NYC's Bohemia. We'll see SoHo, Little Italy, Chinatown, the Brooklyn Bridge, Wall St, the famous Bull, the Statue of Liberty and of course pay our respects at the 911 Memorial. And there will be numerous surprise sights in between all the major attractions listed here! Disclaimer; If I must travel to you anywhere outside of Manhattan, Western Queens or North West Brooklyn, part of that travel time will count towards the stated tour time. Please contact me through the message feature here on the site before you book!
