My parents sailed by the Statue of Liberty in 1948, seeking as millions before them, a new life filled with possibilities as they fled war ravaged Europe. Since I earned my NYC Tour Guide License in 2006, I have had the privilege to tell their story and that of New York City to countless visitors with real stories such as those my parents and family which includes persons making their living in fashion design, film making, church work, music, Real Estate and medicine. This helps give you an authentic sense of this City and region. This City holds a fascinating history and I will tell you the many stories of the City along with captivating facts and figures. My tours of the City comes alive as I share up close and personal life stories and those of the people; including myself working with firefighters as a their chaplain and at the World Trade Center with victim families and survivors. I have brought guests to almost every nook and cranny in The City in my capacity as a licensed and professional New York City Tour Guide, coordinating corporate groups, school groups, family visits, individual travelers and more. My credentials include: - New York City Tour Guide License. - Washington DC Tour Guide License. - Member of GANYC (Guide Association of New York City) - Post Secondary Degrees in History, Theology and Political Science. - Firefighter Chaplain. - Chauffeur's License. If you wish a comprehensive several day experience in the City and / or along the East Coast, please ask me to design a Custom Tour for you.

Get out of the beaten path and see what else makes up NYC. . . You will be amazed ant the incredible spots you will see! This tour is done via Mini Van with picture stops and short walks. Coney Island's Famous Boardwalk, walk in the sand and dip your toe in the Atlantic Ocean, historic amusement park plus its famous Hot Dog Stand, Nathan's is a real treat. Getting there with the tremendous views of Manhattan and the ocean is incredible. Williamsburg where you'll experience the Hasidic Jewish neighborhood is very special as is the up and coming artsy area. DUMBO is a one of a kind neighborhood with its views of Manhattan; walking the Brooklyn Heights Promenade is a charming experience. . . Time permitting you will visit the magnificent Grand Army Plaza by Prospect Park... Get off the tourist path and see the other New York with me.
We had a fantastic experience with Remo! He took us through neighborhoods in Brooklyn that only a local would know, gave us very insightful information and was always humorous. Tour highlights were viewing Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge from the Brooklyn Boardwalk and Coney Island. He also was a wealth of information regarding restuarants and other sights/experiences we might want to look into.
Remo was great. He graciously accommodated our requests and did exactly what we asked, whether or not it was on his planned tour. Because of horrendous traffic in NYC, we ran a bit over our time. No complaints... just his usual friendly demeanor. Highly recommend.
The itinerary was just what we were looking for. We loved our Brooklyn tour. Remo skillfully guided us to the main sites as promised and some surprises as well. Got lots of photo opportunities. We were glad our tour was on Saturday as traffic was not an issue. Remo was friendly, knowledgeable and his car was very comfortable.
