Private Guided Tour of New York City with a Local Expert

A fully bespoke, private walking and driving tour of New York City crafted by a vetted local expert guide. From hidden speakeasies to the Brooklyn waterfront, this is New York entirely on your terms — no crowds, no script.

What to expect

Your expert local guide meets you at the terminal and tailors every hour to your interests. Explore the cobblestone streets of DUMBO with the Brooklyn Bridge as your backdrop, cross into the West Village for a perfectly pulled espresso, and end on the High Line as the Hudson River gleams below. Guides share insider stories — the kind learned over decades of living the city — that transform landmarks into living chapters of New York's story.

Good to know

Book well ahead; top-rated guides fill quickly. Share your must-sees and dietary preferences during booking so the guide pre-arranges reservations. Confirm exact meeting point and all-aboard time with your guide before departure.
