Private Guided Tour of New York City by Luxury Vehicle

See all of Manhattan's legendary neighborhoods, landmarks, and hidden gems in a single seamless day aboard a private luxury vehicle with an expert local guide — the definitive New York experience, entirely on your terms.

What to expect

Your private local guide meets you at the pier and the day unfolds entirely on your terms. Cruise past the gilded facades of Fifth Avenue, pause for photographs on the Brooklyn Bridge, stroll the High Line's elevated gardens above the Hudson, and dip into whichever neighborhoods captivate you most. Your guide weaves in neighborhood history, architectural anecdotes, and insider recommendations for lunch. The vehicle is at your disposal throughout, so you cover far more ground than any walking tour allows.
