NYC Basketball Walking Tour
Overview
New York City has a rich and storied history in basketball. From its early adoption of the sport to the rise of iconic teams and players, basketball has become deeply ingrained in the city's sports culture. The city's passion for the game is evident in its streetball culture, professional and collegiate teams, and the numerous basketball initiatives that continue to thrive in every corner of the city.
Come explore the history of basketball in NYC, see historical sights like MSG, Rucker Park & the 4th Street Cages. We finish our tour at beautiful Brooklyn Bridge Park. I will bring a basketball incase we are able to shoot some hoops at our stops! As a professional NYC tour guide with a passion for basketball, I aim to take you on an all day journey of learning and seeing first hand NYC's love and passion for the sport.
