The most populous city in the United States moves at a frenetic pace, so let one of our expert local guides cherry-pick the best that the Big Apple has to offer. Split your time between exploring New York’s boroughs, learning about the fascinating contents of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, or visiting the Statue of Liberty.
New Yorkers love the chance to talk about their beloved city. Find out what really makes this metropolis tick with a private guided tour by one of our English-speaking local tour guides.
New York is comprised of five boroughs, and we’ve selected the areas we think you’ll get the most bang for your buck with an information-packed walking tour. Discover the pearls of Midtown Manhattan, from the dazzling lights of Broadway and Times Square to the dizzying heights of the Rockefeller Centre and the Empire State Building. A 2.5-hour tour of Lower Manhattan will introduce you to the Dutch and colonial origins of the city, as well as the commercial hub of Wall Street, the historic neighbourhoods of SoHo and Tribeca, and the poignant site of the 9/11 Memorial Museum.
If you’re craving some greenery, our Essential Central Park guided walking tour will explore this expansive 843-acre oasis in the city. Our engaging guides can show you the best-see spots along the whopping 58-miles of winding pathways, including Belvedere Castle, Bow Bridge, the Conservatory Gardens and Strawberry Fields – the area paying tribute to the late Beatle, John Lennon.
Try our Art Inside and Out: Central Park and Metropolitan Museum of Art tour, combining the highlights of the park with the world-renowned Met Museum, or combining the Metropolitan Museum of Art with the American Museum of Natural History. All tours include queue jump privileges, and there will be a time for a short break between visits where your guide can recommend some local foodie hotspots.
Cram even more into your visit with a must-see private tour of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, one of New York’s most iconic landmarks and the reassuring sight for more than 14million immigrants arriving at the ‘New World’ until the 1920s.
