Overview

This is a private walking tour, for groups up to 10 people. That guarantees a personalized experience.

Take a journey from New York's past to its future! On this guided tour of Manhattan's west side, we will journey from the historic Meatpacking District up to the growing Hudson Yards neighborhood via the popular High Line park.

This park began its life as a freight goods railway along the Hudson River and has been reborn as one of the city's most popular destinations, blending nature and art. Come discover why! All the while, your guide will provide historic photos for reference.

As we make our way north, you will see fascinating historic architecture, as well as new developments by Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, Bjarke Ingels, and many more.

Then discover the largest private real estate development in NYC history: Hudson Yards! See the Vessel, the Shed, some of the city's tallest skyscrapers, and more.

This tour was a wonderful experience. I learned so much about the history of NYC and about this brilliant urban renewal and artistic project. Hats off to Jeffrey who was a warm and knowledgeable guide. I enjoyed this tour very much and highly recommend it.

Surprisingly we enjoyed this, started at Hudson Yards and walked only a short distance but it was refreshing. It is hidden in between housing and businesses. Some very expensive looking properties. It is a great place to get away from the hectic NYC.

Excellent tour. The guide was very well educated on the areas we were seeing and used photos to enhance his presentations on the historical aspects of the places we visited. He also answered every question wonderfully.

What an enriching experience to have a tour guide! Great historic photos and information. The guide was wonderful. He pointed out views that we had missed in the past. We now have a full appreciation of the Highline and surrounding area.
