Greenwich Village Walking History
A fantastic two hour walking tour, in a small group, with Nathan as our host. As we walked through the streets of famous musicians, artists, actors and other notable people Nathan brought history vividly to life with his enthusiasm and fantastic knowledge of the area. If you love the legends of stage, screen and the history of the counter culture of New York, this is a must do.
