I am Tour Guide
Born and raised in New York City, I have been a tour guide in my hometown for my entire life! I love sharing with my guests everything there is to love about the Big Apple -- I encourage everyone to use all 5 senses to fully take in what NYC is all about. Especially the sense of taste - I have a particular specialty in food tours and love to bring my guests to off-the-beaten-path dining spots that only locals know about. When not leading tours, I love to travel, having been to 40+ countries; checking out live jazz; playing golf; and just enjoying all that NYC has to offer.
