What You’ll Do, See, and Eat
High Line:
New York’s High Line was ranked as one of the Top Ten places to visit in the whole world last year! Manhattan Walking Tour has watched this elevated train line grow from a local park to the most sought after attraction in recent history. We at MWT know its beginning, its history and what it means to NYC today. We’ll tell you inside stories you can’t get anywhere else. The High Line is a great New York story of industry, history, and everyday New Yorkers working to make our city even better.
On top of the amazing stories, the High Line is a work of art in itself, with amazing views of three dynamic neighborhoods and cutting-edge architecture all around it. Pair with our Greenwich Village Food tour, and you’ll have your finger on the pulse of New York City – not to mention some very satisfied taste buds.
Greenwich Village:
Discover incredible sights and tastes on our food tour of Greenwich Village. Find out how the Village has maintained its unique character within New York City. From the Dutch and English colonial periods to its Beat Poet and avant-garde art roots, today the Village has evolved to become the current hotspot of downtown Manhattan.
You’ll also discover out-of-the-way jazz clubs, the finest chocolatiers, and independent bookstores that carry on Greenwich Village’s bohemian traditions. Greenwich Village rivals Soho as the shopping mecca of New York City, with new stores being added every day.
Historic Downtown:
So where do we start? New York was the first capital of the United States? You might think that’s as good a place as any, but not so. The real place to start our New York walking tour is with the Dutch West India Company.
Yes, that’s correct. We (New Yorkers) were Dutch and Wall Street was a real wall. If you already knew that, you’ll still want to take our tour to find out how much of downtown New York is landfill and how much is really original New York. On our Historic Downtown tour of New York City you’ll get to experience Ground Zero after 9/11, the Stone Street Historic District (the oldest neighborhood in Manhattan) and Trinity Church, to name just a few landmarks. There’s so much New York history in this walking tour that every step opens up a new page in the history book. So come join us in Historic Downtown NYC and see for yourself!
Check Out What Our Guests Are Saying
I did 2 combo tours (Times Square/Hells Kitchen/Central Park and Highline/Greenwich Village/Historic Downtown). I loved every step. Who needs a guide book when you’ve got this company? The tour groups are small & personal.
In between all stops Alex taught us loads about the culture and history of the local area, making the trip really interesting – he knew the city like the back of his hand! I would definitely recommend taking a tour with these guys, you won’t regret it.
