Get to know the history of New York
I provide well-researched, engaging, site-specific history tours of New York City. I am also a licensed New York City tour guide.
Both of my tours are listed below and can be booked by clicking the photos. If cost is an issue, I would be happy to give you a tour for free. Email me at jon@nycwalkingtours.org to set up a time.
Brooklyn Bridge Tour
Most people are going to the Bridge to grab a selfie and get on with their day. They don't understand the engineering marvel and heartbreaking history behind it all. We will learn this fascinating past (and then take a selfie on the Bridge).
Subway Tour
A private, custom tour of the New York City subway system. Each tour is unique. I will build it around your needs and walk you through every step of the way. We will see history, architecture, abandoned stations, and beautiful artwork.
How to use the Subway
The New York City Subway is one of the most complex transit systems in the world but with a little help, you can ride it like a pro. This is a practical guide to using the subway.
