The only way to experience a city is to see it on foot--not in a car or a bus. I'll show you detailed architecture, sights, sounds, and tastes of one of the world's greatest cities. Choose from one of several 2-hours tours or create your own!

Some of the tours I offer:

--Brooklyn Bridge and Brooklyn Heights: walk over one of New York's most iconic symbols and tour America's first suburb. Highlights include The Promenade and the most complete collection of pre-Civil War houses in the city

--Chinatown, Little Italy, and NoLita: see some of Manhattan's most vibrant neighborhoods, featuring gangland warfare sites, the former notorious Five Points slums, and one of the city's oldest Catholic churches

--Gramercy Park and Union Square: visit NYC's only private park, an old Quaker meeting house, one of Andy Warhol's Factories, the last location of the Tammany Hall political machine, and much more!

--Historic Greenwich Village: wander through the crazy-quilt layout of streets that survived the 1811 Commissioner's Grid plan, see Edgar Allan Poe's former clinic, the site of a deadly fire that changed American labor laws forever, and the only building in NYC designed by Chicago architect Louis Sullivan, peer into private alleys and back ways, and savor the old Bohemian flavor

--Lower Manhattan: where it all began! The center of Dutch and English colonial commerce, lower Manhattan still beats withs the energy of wheeler-dealers and high finance. Highlights include the "9/11 church", the site of a 1920 terrorist attack, Alexander Hamilton's burial place, and the city's first immigration center.

--Midtown and Central Park: everyone goes to Midtown to catch a show and see Times Square. Come on this tour and find out Midtown's secrets!
