A Fabulous Day in Brooklyn with Denis
It is hard to imagine how Denis could have been a more thoughtful, generous and warm tour guide. It’s just not possible! We had a wonderful day with his leading and he was quick to seek our feedback by giving us loads of options based on our interests. Denis is knowledgeable, curious and you can tell he is passionate about what he does. It definitely shows. Thank you, Denis for a memorable day. We hope to book with you again!

The coolest walk in Manhattan: High Line & Meatpacking

The coolest walk in Manhattan: High Line & Meatpacking
Walking the High Line down into the Meatpacking District ended up being one of our favorite afternoons in the entire city. There’s something so refreshing about strolling along the old elevated rail tracks, tucked between lush gardens and cool modern art, while watching the city traffic buzz underneath you. The skyline and Hudson River views are spectacular from up there.The staff and park volunteers along the trail are super friendly, always ready with a smile, directions, or a fun fact about the plant life and seasonal art pieces.Once you take the stairs down into the Meatpacking District, the vibe shifts instantly into something lively and chic. The cobblestone streets, design shops, and sidewalk cafes make it the ultimate place to grab an iced coffee, a glass of wine, and just people-watch.Skip the subway for an afternoon and do this walk instead—you won't regret it.

Tour with Aymerick
We had a great time discovering New York from a different perspective, with many details and little stories that make the tour truly lively and exciting. Discovering the skyline and the various viewpoints was superb, and the guide's explanations allowed us to better understand the history and evolution of the city. A real pleasure to talk with someone who knows their subject perfectly and knows how to share it with enthusiasm and simplicity. A very pleasant half-day, at once informative, friendly, and full of wonderful discoveries.

Bring Lady Liberty and Ellis Island Alive
Having been to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island a number of times over the years, I have come to dread the logistics and the crowds. But Cheri, our guide, was marvelous in navigating the logistics. Even more impressive was the quality of her description and historical background, suitably presented for adults and pre-teens. Anywhere she wants to guide in NY, we would be in for the experience!

Fantastic Family-Friendly Private Tour with Charlie!
We booked our private Babylon Tours experience through Spur Experiences and had a fantastic time! Our guide, Charlie, was incredibly insightful and shared just the right amount of information to keep the tour interesting without feeling overwhelming. He was also wonderful with our kids and kept them engaged throughout the experience.The entire process was seamless, from booking through Spur Experiences to the tour itself. We would highly recommend Babylon Tours and Charlie to anyone looking for a personalized, informative, and family-friendly experience!

Lower East Side Skip-the-Line Food Tour with Museum Entry

The perfect bite of NYC history!
If you're on the fence about this tour, just book it. Seriously.Nick was an absolute gem—smart and easy going. He kept the pace perfectly laid-back, and answered every random question we threw at him with genuine enthusiasm. What made it special? He didn't just feed us (though trust me, he did); he connected every single bite to the immigrant stories that built the Lower East Side. Additional food recommendations alone were worth the price of admission.The food? Insane. We hit the pickle place (tangy perfection), a phenomenal Asian spot I'd never have found on my own, and the bagel & bialy stop that honestly ruined grocery store bagels for life. Portion sizes are no joke—you will leave stuffed and happy.The history & museum blew me away. I had no idea the LES had its very own newspaper back in the day—Nick brought that gritty, vibrant past to life. The museum at Eldridge Street was stunningly beautiful; walking through that space felt like stepping back in time, and the tour integration made it seamless.The small group size. It felt personal, exclusive, and tailored—not like a cattle.Do yourself a favor—go hungry, bring curiosity, and ask for Nick.
