Itinerary

Gather a group of up to 10 friends and family members, and connect with your private guide at either your Midtown hotel or a central meeting location. Set off on a walking tour of dozens of New York's most famous attractions, conveniently clustered at this vibrant, energetic midpoint of the city.

Go deeper than the average wandering tourist as your private guide illuminates the unique history and culture of Midtown. Gaze up at the towering Art Deco exteriors of the Chrysler Building and Empire State Building, take in the daily commuter bustle at Grand Central Terminal, and learn the backstory behind historic buildings like the New York Public Library, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, and the MetLife Building. Taste the luxe life as you admire the exterior of the swanky Waldorf-Astoria Hotel and window shop at Saks Fifth Avenue.

It’s easy to get starstruck in the Theater District as you pass by the television studios surrounding Rockefeller Center, the home of the famous Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall, and the ‘Great White Way’ of Broadway. See the historic venues that host the world’s best in live stage and musical theater, and be surrounded by the dazzling illuminated billboards of Times Square.

Say farewell to your guide at the end of the 2.5-hour tour, which concludes on 50th and Broadway.
