Just returned from a family reunion in New York with my two sisters and their families (ages ranged from 18-65 years old). The highlight of our trip was the Greenwich Village food tour with Alex. This was my third food tour with Alex and my daughter’s fourth. […] We had a larger group than normal and Alex was able to manage all the different personalities while making each person feel special. Read full testimonial(opens in a new tab)

READ WHAT OUR HAPPY GUESTS HAVE SAID
This tour was a great way spend the afternoon. Since we had such a small group, our guide Nancy was able to answer everyone’s questions. She treated us like we were her friend’s visiting. I was not expecting such a large amount of food at every stop. Read full testimonial(opens in a new tab)
We went on the Hells Kitchen food tour during our recent visit. Our guide was Annabel and she was awesome. I’m so glad we got to go with her. She was very knowledgeable and friendly. She remembered everyone’s names, which is very impressive as our group had 8 people on it. […] If you are looking for a Hell’s Kitchen food tour, this is the one you want.

🌳 Happy Arbor Day! 🌳 We are thankful for all the amazing work done by @nycparks, @naturalareasnyc, the many business improvement districts, and all the non profits that work to keep our city green.
On this holiday, we are featuring 2 great shots recently taken by our amazing guide Jenn.
The first is the Survivor Tree (Cannery Pear) at the World Trade Center.
The second is a beautiful blooming Eastern Redbud on the @highlinenyc.
NYC's 28,000 acres of green space help support and also give respite to our busy urban environment.

In honor of Women's History Month, our newest blog is about the women behind NYC monuments and the fountains they inspired.
Most of us do not know the fountains by their official names, calling them informally as "The Fountain in Central Park with the Angel," "The Fountain in Bryant Park," & "The Fountain in front of the Plaza Hotel."
But when first-time visitors to New York City see them, they are awed into exuberant joy or meditative silence. And for long-time residents, the mere sight of them produces a calming effect, inviting one to slow down and gather what is essential within.

Long before the St. Patrick’s Day of our times was lavished with the celebratory “green” of shamrocks, leprechauns, mint-tinged cocktails, Irish independence, and a parade of iconographies capturing hues as verdant as the landscapes of an Emerald Isle . . . there was the symbolic “blue” of myth, legend and imperial history, one that continues to recognizably linger as a feature in Ireland’s state symbols.

The only constant of any neighborhood in NYC is change, and Brooklyn has undergone more change in the last few decades than any place in the city.
You will explore several different neighborhoods each with their own unique character, including Prospect Park, Park Slope, Brooklyn Heights, DUMBO, Williamsburg & Greenpoint.
As well as walking and subways, this tour includes a ferry ride up the East River which gives you unique and varied views of both the Brooklyn & Manhattan skylines.
This 5 hour historic tour also includes coffee & pastry in the morning, lunch, and an afternoon snack 😉☕🍕🍩

How would you like to journey to a forested mountain landscape with idyllic cascades, rustic bridges, and some of the best birdwatching in North America? Or visit a historic lookout used during the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812? Or stroll through a lush European formal garden, then marvel at one of the greatest skylines in the world? How would you like to see all of this without leaving the center of Manhattan?
You can, on our Northern Central Park tour!
It was the goal of Central Park's visionary designers, Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, to create a "rugged wilderness in the heart of the city." On this 1 ½ hour hike you will explore a part of the park not often visited by tourists. Prepare to be amazed!
