Personalized Private Tours Curated Around Your Passions

With New Yourk Tours, every walk through the city becomes a story shaped just for you. Whether your interests lie in history, culture, architecture, science, sports, or the hidden narratives of neighborhoods, I build private tours that mirror what moves you.

Bohemian Greenwich Village

Sites of artist’ “revolt” as a Free State of Greenwich Village; locations where cultural icons from Bob Dylan to Richard Pryor got their starts; homes and hangouts of Poe, Pollock, Hendrix and others

Irish Immigration & Five Points

Starting at the memorial to the Irish Famine and wending through the streets, residences, and businesses that enabled the Irish in pre-civil war NYC to become civic leaders – and ruthless gangsters

Medical Milestones in NYC

We traveled from America’s oldest operating hospital, Bellevue, through “Bedpan Alley”, viewed the sites of early pharmaceutical manufacturing, and visited locations where breakthroughs in cancer care were discovered with connections to the Rockefellers, General Motors, and Broadway

The ”Real” Sex And the City: Single NYC

This tour was done in conjunction with a SATC television series tour, to show where the real “Carries” hung out – the first singles’ bar in the US, the swinging stewardess scene, the discos and clubs, and where women shopped in preparation for a night out.

The Titanic and its Passengers

Our tour took us to the planned arrival destination of the Titanic, the building where the first reports of the sinking were telegraphed, and memorials and homes of famous passengers, including the Straus’s and the Astor’s.
