Fun and informative walking tour in the heart of New York - Fun and informative walking tour in the heart of New York with a born and bred New Yorker, Mari. A great mix of anecdotes and history ensured that I came away with a greater understanding of how this vibrant city has evolved over time.

Walking tour of Greenwich Village with Angela Sharp - highly recommended - My friend and I did the Greenwich Village tour with Angela Sharp (guide with experience first). I can honestly say it was the best walking tour that I have ever been on in any of the countries I have visited. Angela was warm and engaging and had a great knowledge of the history of the area and its importance in relation to civil rights, gay rights and the music culture in 1960s/70s. She also told us about how she had been personally influenced and affected by the developments in this area of New York City. Following the tour she sent us all an e-mail with lots of information about places to visit that she hadn’t had time to show us in person. We visited a number of these as we decided to return to the village on the next day of our stay in NYC. All in all it was a wonderful experience - I couldn’t recommend the tour and Angela herself more highly.

Wet tour but still amazing! - The weather wasn’t very nice but George did a great job showing our family the sites of SOHO, Little Italy, and China Town. He is very knowledgeable and it was great to learn the history of the area.
