Learned so much while having such fun with art and architecture!
We had such fun on our tour seeing all the artwork and architecture of midtown! As someone born in New York, I never even knew about the history of these buildings or the art displayed inside some of them. I would just hurry to my destination, never stopping to notice any of it. Robert, our tour guide changed all that. He was knowledgeable, informative, and entertaining. He was also very considerate, checking on us frequently to make certain we didn't need a rest or bathroom break . I highly recommend this tour and specifically Robert!!

Rob was AWESOME. A true fountain of information about the history of NYC and the immigrants who built it, It's heavy on architecture as the title implies, but you don't need a PhD to follow along and understand their importance.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely fabulous guide!
We had Charlie as our guide for our Statue of Liberty tour and he was absolutely fabulous!Charlie was so knowledgeable about New York and its history, but what made him stand out was the way he told the stories. He was funny, engaging and really brought everything to life. You could tell he genuinely loves what he does and loves sharing his knowledge of the city.He was also brilliant with my daughter. She is embarking on her own musical theatre journey, and when Charlie found out, he took the time to chat to her about acting, share some of his own experiences and give her some really lovely tips and encouragement. She was absolutely fascinated and it was such a lovely unexpected part of the tour.We have done quite a few things during our New York trip, but Charlie genuinely made this one of the highlights. He was so friendly and approachable and somehow managed to make the history interesting for all of us — which isn’t always easy when you’re travelling with a teenager! 😂If you get Charlie as your guide, you are very lucky. He really went above and beyond and made our Statue of Liberty experience something we’ll remember.Thank you Charlie — and especially for taking the time to encourage my daughter as she starts her own journey into musical theatre. 🗽❤️🎭

Midtown surprises and fun!
It was a great experience! Our guide was very knowledgeable and genuinely fun. We were in a small group and it felt personal and we had great conversations. The tour itself was very thorough and it didn’t felt too long, just perfect. As an architecture student, it felt like an insider/local experience and learned a lot.

An A++ Very Memorable Walking Tour
New York City
Tenement History and Immigrant Life in the Lower East Side
CarolDoughty, Aug 2026
An A++ Very Memorable Walking Tour
Rob was our extremely knowledgeable guide who took us on the Tenement Walking Tour. He met us at a convenient location and began with an overview of the time period, mid-to-late 1800’s into the early 1900’s. He brought charts and graphs, old photo’s, and a variety of maps to help us get a lay of the land. He covered the myriad groups of immigrants who came to NYC in waves, what their home and jobs were like, and what turf belonged to what group. Rob covered architecture, pre-law buildings and pointed out post-law buildings when windows were added to “inner dark rooms.” We saw Al Capone’s old stomping ground, a Romanian Jewish Synagogoe and back houses that were added to tenement housing by greedy landlords. Rob really knew his history and we can’t wait to take another tour with him this fall. Do yourself a favor; it was worth every dollar.

Enjoyable Walking History Lesson
Our tour of the Lower East Side with Ben was like walking the old neighborhood with your favorite Uncle. As a life long New Yorker, Ben shared historical facts and personal stories about the area and at all of our stops. He had photos of each of the stops in their hey day which added context and discussion. It was easy to find Ben at our designated start point and he communicated well prior to the tour. The pace was pleasant and efficient. I highly recommend this tour.

A great very detailed historical tour with Rob of the Gilded Age, which started in the 1850s, of the area in Manhattan around 5th Ave and 23rd Street. We learned a lot about how the city changed and the rich kept moving uptown. I recommend this tour.
