Whether it's your first time in the city that never sleeps or you’re a return visitor whose in-built New York gps is a little rusty, you’ll join one of our local New York hosts to get your trip off to a great start!

You’ll choose a neighbourhood to explore, then you’re off. Learn how to navigate the tangle of lines on the subway, or how to hail a yellow cab like a local - whichever is more your style.

Get the low-down on great places to eat, drink and hang out (things pop up here so fast, only a local could keep up) and ask any of the 101 questions we know you’re got about exploring the city.

Whether you’d like some advice on how to see the iconic sights like the Empire State without having to waste your day in a nightmare-ish queue, or tip-offs on some great restaurants near Times Square (they do exist, it’s not all tourist traps), our host has got you covered.

Just show up, and we’ll take care of the rest.
