I have been guiding in NYC for over ten years. With a background in acting, I have learned to bring my all to every tour as if it were a stage performance. My expertise covers every Manhattan neighbourhood as well as many in Brooklyn. Are you perhaps looking for food tours? I got you covered. Do you want to see Midtown Manhattan, Harlem, Lower Manhattan, or the Brooklyn Bridge? Get ready to see the sights with me! We can make everything into a part of your vacation that will all comes together with a sharp sense of humor and a gentle heart. During the last decade, I have put a great deal of effort in studying the events of 9/11 with a focus on the stories of individuals from that day, and the specifics on how the building collapsed. Don't hesitate to contact me if you want to create a customized experience for your time in New York, I'll be happy to elaborate a tour that covers all your interests and preferences!

This guided tour takes you on a scenic journey through Central Park, starting at the iconic intersection of 5th Avenue and 59th Street. As you stroll through the park, you'll explore lush landscapes, historic landmarks, and hidden gems along the way. The tour highlights key sights such as The Mall, Bethesda Terrace, and Bow Bridge, while offering fascinating insights into the park's design and history. The tour culminates at the peaceful Strawberry Fields, a touching memorial to John Lennon, where you can reflect at the "Imagine" mosaic. This leisurely walk combines nature, culture, and music in one unforgettable experience.
We will start at Grand Army Plaza and discuss the surrounding area. Next we will go in to the Duck Pond, then we will visit the Central Park Zoo (only if tour is during zoos opening hours). The next step is to explore the lower fields pf central Park and the Balto statue, followed by the Literary Walk and the Mall. Bathrooms are available at Bethesda Terrace, and the Angel of the Water. We'll walk up to Cherry Hill and then head down through the Lake and in to Strawberry Fields and the Dakota building for our conclusion.
