Explore Manhattan’s celebrated art and architecture on this guided walking tour of the west side’s Chelsea and Hudson Yards neighborhoods. Stroll along the High Line, the former train tracks-turned-elevated park, with an informative and award-winning guide. Admire the work of renowned architects like Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, and Jean Nouvel and stop into local galleries to experience the city’s most talked-about exhibitions.
On this two-hour tour, we’ll walk through the Meatpacking and Chelsea neighborhoods, and we’ll see contemporary buildings by international ‘starchitects’ Frank Gehry, Jean Nouvel, Zaha Hadid and more.

As we head north on and near the High Line, we’ll discuss the history of this elevated park and check out its public sculpture program. We’ll also consider Chelsea’s ever-evolving history and the handsome 19th century residences and buildings that add to the area’s charm.

Chelsea is also New York’s biggest art gallery district, and during the art season (Sept – June), our tour may include a visit to one or two of the most important art exhibitions of the moment in beautifully repurposed or new spaces.
