Greenwich Village, SOHO, Little Italy and Chinatown

During this in-depth walking tour of NYC's Greenwich Village, we explore the history of this enigmatic neighborhood, from its Native American roots, through the Dutch tobacco farms and the English estates of "Green Wich," to the Bohemian emergence of the Village. Take a relaxing stroll through SoHo, Little Italy and Chinatown. Walk through the Fashionistas and cast iron buildings of Soho, visit famous mafia locations in Little Italy and watch people bargaining with street vendors in Chinatown.

Meatpacking, The High Line and Chelsea

The meandering, block-paved streets of Manhattan’s meatpacking district and the old, steel rail tracks of the elevated train that runs overhead provide a glimpse back through time to an era when New York lay at the crossroads of American commerce. Today, with its upscale restaurants and boutiques, the area has transformed into one of the most exciting destinations in the city. During this High Line tour, trace the history of New York's industrial age from the 1840s to the 1940s, putting the contemporary space in context.

Dumbo, Brooklyn Heights & Park Slope

Stroll through its tree-lined streets and discover why Brooklyn is famous for its unique collection of architectural styles reflective of the borough’s history. See Brownstones, carriage houses and a cornucopia of beautiful churches; the most of any of the 5 boroughs. Brooklyn is also home to many writers and artists like Arthur Miller, Truman Capote, Larry David and Jay Z just to name a few.  From colonial times to present day learn all about the history of its diverse communities.

Williamsburg & Bushwick

Start with a visit through Williamsburg, its once gritty industrial landscape transformed into a flourishing and vibrant artistic community. View cutting-edge graffiti murals from some of NYC’s most innovative emerging artists. Have a look at some of Brooklyn’s trendiest stores. Then, delve into the dynamic neighborhood of Bushwick through an exploration of its street art, part of the contemporary American culture.

Harlem Walking Tour
