Hi I'm Nya! Thanks for coming to my page. A fun, vivacious native licensed New York City tour guide and native New Yorker from the Lower East Side of Manhattan. I still live in my childhood neighborhood and I also live in Barcelona, Spain. I am super excited to show off my city to you. I love this City. I love sharing my knowledge and secrets of The City to people from all around the world. That is one of the reasons why I became a Tour Guide back in June 2002. Also, the main reason why I became a tour guide was that it is the perfect "hustle" survival job for me as a Professional Dancer and Actor in this concrete jungle where dreams are made. I love what I do. . . all of what I do. Putting together a tour is like putting on a show. It is important to me that my tours are interactive based on storytelling that give my guests an experience that is engaging, impactful, and personable. Being a Tour Guide, I continue to fulfill my purpose which is to help and inspire people and make a personal connection through performance and creativity. I offer walking tours, luxury vehicle tours, custom made tours, airport and cruise meet & greet transfers, and group tours. You can pick one of my published tours or tell me what you want to experience, and I make my magic to create a tour just for you. I go above and beyond to make sure that all the details are taken care of, so you do not have to worry about anything, but enjoy the tour. I want you to return to your hometown feeling good about yourself and in love with New York City. All my tours can be customized to accommodate your requests. I am a licensed New York City Tour Guide by the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs. NYC Department of Consumer Affairs Licensed New York City Tour Guide License #1112499 since 2002 NYC & Company Tour Guide Enhancement Professional Certificate 2004 Member of the Guide Association of New York City Being a fully licensed guide, I have no restrictions for my tours.
