New York City Tours

Tour Guides and Escort Services FOR VISITORS TO NEW YORK CITY

See New York City with a native son. I was born and raised in Brooklyn and attended its public schools and colleges. While in high school, I worked part-time as a messenger and learned the city streets and ins and outs of Manhattan’s neighborhoods. Later work assignments made me equally familiar with the Bronx, Queens and Staten Island.

Now, as a licensed New York City Sightseeing Guide, I can make your visit a memorable event. My background includes being a meeting and event planner for leading organizations, including Price Waterhouse and Newsweek, and I'm also experienced in tourism sales and marketing. In addition, I have a Master’s degree in Tourism. This combination is a value added asset for visitors in getting to know the background and reasoning as to why certain things are the way they are and how to go about seeing NYC in an enjoyable way.

From the financial district to the top of the Empire State Building, Coney Island to the Bronx Zoo, the “Jazz Trail” in Queens to taking the Staten Island Ferry or visiting the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, my Ad Hoc Committee can be the tour guide for you. So, whether you are one person or a group, interested in attractions, theater, restaurants and shopping, or just wanting to enjoy and make the most of your visit, contact me to be your guide.

FOR TOUR OPERATORS NEEDING AN ESCORT

I am also available for inbound and outbound tours needing an escort. My experience as a teacher, meeting planner and tourism program manager for the Canadian Consulate General in New York has taken me to destinations throughout the United States, Canada and other parts of the world. I know the logistical travel requirements of groups and pay attention to the personal needs of individuals. Of equal importance to you as a tour operator is my reputation of being honest, knowledgeable, reliable, enjoyable, hospitable and dependable.
