David was AWESOME! He had a great itinerary made out for us. There was 5 of us, 3 kids between 20-26. We learned so much and he took time to talk to each of us even the kids. He really gets to know you. And the next couple of days after our tour he answered any questions we had. He even took us by a place where we grabbed a piece of awesome pizza. If you are looking for a tour guide don't miss out use David!
OMG David was amazing! He had so much knowledge of the history of the sites and places we visited. He was able to fit so much in to the time we had. Central Park, Times Square, 9/11 Memorial, Central Park Station, The Highline, Bleecker Street Pizza, the Subway, just to name a few! The tour totally exceeded my expectations. Would totally recommend David. He asked what you wanted to see and didn't rush you. Will be booking him again! David you are the best!!!!
David was GREAT! We had a lot of communication beforehand and he was able to customize a tour that hit all of our "must sees". With only a day and a half in NY, he shared insights on how to best experience Central Park in advance of our Broadway show in the evening and downtown tour the next day. We had a larger group of 6 with ages 14-53. He talked to all of us throughout the day and accommodated requests. He did his prep-work and handled the planning which allowed us to just enjoy the city.
David is extremely thoughtful and an amazing person. He has an excellent knowledge of NYC in all different aspects. We did a private tour with him and it was wonderful! He basically knows everything you need to know on NYC (historical aspect, cultural, people etc..) I strongly recommend him!
David knows New York without a doubt!! David created a unique, two-day walking itinerary for me exactly according to my wishes. David was very aware of my likes and dislikes and respected my interests in visiting and learning about NYC. I had an outstanding experience thanks to David, an honest, knowledgeable and entertaining local guide.
I'm David, a lifetime New Yorker, and I'd love to be your guide and show you around. I have a passion for traveling around the world and for sharing with visitors from all over the world what makes New York City such a special place—its history, culture, food.
I've enjoyed much professional success and memorable personal experiences in New York as a catering and event planning small business owner, as a teacher at the Institute of Culinary Education, and as a volunteer for many organizations around my neighborhood in the East Village. These experiences have deepened my love and broadened my appreciation of my hometown.
Let me show you New York’s must-see sights and hidden gems as only a New Yorker can, experience the best places to dine, shop, and have fun! At the end of your tour, you’ll have a better appreciation of this unique metropolis.
From the days of the nation’s founding, to the robber barons and captains of industry during America’s Gilded Age, to the excesses, bubbles and bursts of Wall Street, to the different waves of immigrants—be ready to learn what’s made New York a world-class mecca of culture and innovation.
World-renowned Museum Mile, Broadway Theater District, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Uptown, Midtown, Downtown. Music, theater, dance, film, opera, art—everything that your cultural appetite craves for, New York City has it in abundance. And I can show you where it all happens!
New York’s extensive history of migration and trade has enriched not only its cultural institutions but also its culinary diversity. Food offerings from all over the world can be enjoyed here, from 5-start dinning experiences, to neighborhood restaurants, to pop-up eateries, and food trucks. During your tour with me, you can discover some of the most delicious and classic New York treats: pizza, cheese cake, bagels, dumplings, pastrami, falafel, kosher, halal, vegetarian. You want it, New York cooks it, and I can point you to it all!
