New York City is more than Manhattan, and this customized private tour shows you the best of four boroughs as you venture off the beaten tourist path.

We’ll see the famous landmarks: Apollo Theater, Citi Field, the Brooklyn Bridge, Yankee Stadium. But you’ll also hear local stories that make these streets come alive. Hear stories of stars like Aretha Franklin and Little Richard in Harlem as you stroll the Walk of Fame. Learn how Bushwick became an outdoor canvas for up-and-coming artists. Get a glimpse into daily life in South Williamsburg’s Hasidic Jewish community.

Your guide is also your personal photographer. For a photo by the 140-foot tall Unisphere or next to a colorful Bronx mural, just ask. Your private tour guide will also personalize your tour based on your interest so you can go at your own pace through the many sights to see.

Lunch is a gourmet meal paired with a drink of your choice. Your guide can help you choose a restaurant based on your preferences that day. We’ll also stop for refreshment at a local bodega, a quintessential NYC experience. 

The day winds down back in Manhattan as you explore Little Italy and Chinatown, where your guide will point out the best spots for dumplings, pastries, or an early dinner if you’re interested.

This is New York beyond the postcards, full of flavor, history, and cultures, each with their own story to tell, and your expert local guide as the storyteller. Come discover the real New York.
