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. Please contact me through ToursByLocals messaging before booking a tour in case I forgotten to mark my unavailability!

Overview of your New York City tour

We all need a green oasis, Central Park has been NYC's back yard since 1861. It's one of my favorite places in all of New York City. Of course, I'm not unique in feeling that way about Central Park! Grand Central Terminal is not just a train station but a magnificent architectural landmark. Grand Central holds many secrets & I can share them with you! You'll also find excellent dining at Grand Central Terminal. Bryant Park, behind the New York Public Library, is one of the many jewel-like small parks of NYC. In summer, there are outdoor games like bocce and badminton and outdoor movies. In the winter it hosts a beautiful Christmas Village with handcrafted gifts and winter treats. Greenwich Village is characterized by its curved, overlapping, & zig-zag streets that don't conform to NYC's grid plan & as the home to New York's art & music scene thru the 20th Century. And of course, New York City is full of American History, from our War for Independence to 9/11. Join me!
