Tour description

Join me for an evening you’ll never forget! We begin our journey in Chinatown-one of the last Manhattan holdouts from gentrification, this vibrant bustling neighborhood has one of the best remaining collections of old tenement buildings and family owned businesses. From there we’ll dip into The Bowery- part of the Lower East Side and one of New York's most storied districts with a rich and varied past that reflects the history of the city itself.


Then finally, I will lead you (via the secret entrance from Chinatown) out across the Brooklyn Bridge, where you will see the unforgettable view of the famous Manhattan skyline, bathed in sunset colors, as the thousand tiny lights of NYC night twinkle to life. We’ll talk history, architecture, culture and have a few laughs along the way. Come and spend some time with a real New Yorker- I’ll show you my favorite spots, and give you the real scoop on what it’s like to live in this glittering global city.
