During the 19th century, this was the most dangerous ghetto area of immigrant New York, as portrayed in the book and film Gangs of New York.

Vibrant Chinatown is a densely populated neighborhood that draws foodies and tourists to its many Chinese and Southeast Asian restaurants for dumplings, pork buns and hand-pulled noodles.

Locals hang out in leafy Columbus Park for Tai Chi, chess and mahjong.

Pass By: Canal Street, New York City, NY

Canal Street is a Lower Manhattan thoroughfare where cultures collide. It's well-known for its bargain shopping scene. The street stretches from near the Hudson River to East Broadway and serves as the gateway to Chinatown, Little Italy, SoHo, and Tribeca.

We loved this tour! Hannah was our tour guide and she was fantastic! The food was delicious and there was plenty to eat. Hannah walked us around Chinatown and Little Italy and told us some great stories along the way. The tour lasted about 3 hours and we all had a great time. Would highly recommend!

Our food tour of Chinatown and Little Italy was amazing! Lauren was the best tour guide! She was so knowledgeable and fun. The food was delicious and more than just small bites. We were with two other couples from different parts of the world who made our tour even better. I would definitely recommend this experience!

Cal and Grace were terrific. Cal was extremely knowledgeable and did a great job blending in the history of the area/people into the tour, which made it much more interesting than I was expecting. Highly recommend.

This was such a fun tour! My guide Grace was incredible. She was knowledgeable, personable, contagious energy and super helpful with the tour. She made sure we understood what to expect but even made the time to show us 2 additional locations which made the tour even more fun. If there was a way to request your own your guide, I highly recommend Grace. This is her job but she makes you feel like a friend visiting nyc for the first time and she’s just out to show you her favorite places. Thanks again!!

For starters… greeted by a cheerful, outgoing and incredibly knowledgeable guide, GRACE made each and everyone feel welcomed. Her bright sunny disposition, along with an evident passion to introduce us to NYC food gems, instilled confidence for the journey ahead. Come hungry! Secret Tours doesn’t skimp! Our group size allowed for some extra special stops- including the very fascinating Chinese food market! Every morsel was divine. Great balance of sweet and savory. My favorite… shhh… it was the secret. My stay in NYC is short but I am rearranging to get myself there again this week! A little history, a little trivia, a little sweet, a little savory- and a great dose of laughter! I went as a solo and made some friends! NYC can be overwhelming with choices- let Secret Tours decide this meal- you won’t be disappointed!
