What makes Welcome to New York City Tour a unique experience ?

Rockefeller Center is the heart of Midtown Manhattan, I will show you around 30 Rock and the fabled underground concourse and help you understand its significance for world communications and media.

Walk over to Grand Central, New York's most spectacular train station, home of many famous movie scenes and all Metro North Commuter Trains.

Times Square is undoubtedly New York's most popular tourist destination. I will point out landmark buildings and happenings here, but more importantly, I'll instruct you in how to use the subway through here to get to the other New York destinations you might want to visit.

The Staten Island Ferry is the most popular way to see the Statue of Liberty for free, I'll show you how to use the ferry, tell you which are the best ferries to views (they're not all the same) and explain how to get back to Manhattan quickly or where to go for a nice meal in Staten Island!

The Brooklyn Bridge is beyond iconic, in recent years it has become one of New York's most popular tourist attractions. I can show you how to get there via subway and also many other interesting historic buildings at the Manhattan base of bridge.

Located on the corner of Wall and Broad Streets in Lower Manhattan, there is no more important site in NYC to the economy of the world. Having worked in and around Wall Street my entire career, I'll explain how it works and some of the tech advances that have changed how it functions in recent years.

We will take the subway from Midtown Manhattan to Downtown and Wall Street so you can get an understanding of how to navigate like a native New Yorker on your visit to the Big Apple!
