Private NEW YORK CITY Walking Tour - Enjoy NYC Like A Local
Overview
Experience the real NYC with a passionate local! I’m Denis, a licensed guide who’s called NYC home since 2013. I offer custom WALKING TOURS (4 to 8 hours) of all five boroughs, sharing a unique insider perspective. I’ll connect with you beforehand to create a custom itinerary based on your passions. Explore Manhattan's icons, Brooklyn's street art, Queens' diversity, the Bronx's history, or Staten Island's views—or combine boroughs! As your dedicated guide, I’ll share stories and insights, creating an immersive experience. From movie locations to hidden gems, I'll show you the city most tourists miss. This tour is perfect for first-time visitors, returning travelers, and anyone seeking a personalized adventure. Unlike large groups, you get my undivided attention and a flexible itinerary that can change on the go. It's your NYC, designed for you. I'm super flexible: if you want to spend extra time somewhere, change direction mid-tour, or discover something unexpected, no problem!
