A place with beautiful views to enjoy nature with family and friends in New York City. - Walking through an elevated linear park is a great experience, where a greenway and a rail trail more than 2 kilometers long created on an old branch of the New York Central Railroad takes us to enjoy nature and offers us fantastic views of the Hudson River and the New York City skyline on the west side of Manhattan, where one can find during the walk beautiful sculptures, places to snack and if we want to rest we have numerous benches throughout the route.

An Amazing Tour! - What an amazing tour! Anyone can walk the High Line, but to have the history, timeline and details associated with this project made it all the more relevant and worthwhile. Jeremy, our guide, was considerate, knowledgeable, and eager to answer our many questions! We highly recommend this tour - what a great history lesson of the Meatpacking District and getting a glimpse in to the future in this area of NYC!

Interesting and stimulating tour that brings NYC history to life - 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.

Brilliant! - 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.

Great Tour - 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.

Enriching Tour of Highline - 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.

A Delightful Walk - New York never ceases to amaze me and the High Line Walking Tour is an excellent way to see the city's West Side from the height of a rail bridge. Here, there are floral arrangements in a garden-like setting that is a treat from the grit of the concrete city. Plants aplenty along with the flowers make this is a delightful walk. The best walk is to head south from Hudson Yards and head for the trendy Meatpacking District taking in the street life along the way.

The tour was interesting,... - The tour was interesting, I'm sure having a guide made it more enjoyable but compared to other guides we have encountered he was a little dry.
