Greetings All: My name is Joseph and I am a Travel enthusiast, melophile (lover of music) and historian, I have been a New York City resident since birth splitting my upbringing between the Bronx and Harlem. I discovered at a young age that there was so much more to NYC than just the city. As a teenager, I navigated the five boroughs both on foot and by way of public transportation while learning about the many experiences and cultures in the process. With over 20 years of experience in the tourism and hospitality industries, my ultimate goal is to preserve the unique history and culture of NYC by curating tours and experiences aimed at educating the curious minds about the untapped history that makes this vast metropolis so special. ALL tours and experiences can be customized and curated to meet personal interests.

Black history in New York City is a rich and diverse tapestry that spans centuries. From the arrival of the first African slaves in the 17th century to the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s to the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, Black people have made significant contributions to the city's culture and history. My goal is to provide an experience that will help guests fully understand and appreciate the city's Black history. Come join this tour. You will NOT be disappointed.
