Overview

Delve deep into New York City’s Upper West Side, an area rich in history, architecture, and cultural significance. This immersive tour, led by a local expert with over 35 years of experience in NYC, offers an insider’s view of this dynamic area. You’ll explore historic brownstones, European-style apartment houses, and hidden parks, as well as visit iconic film locations that have graced screens for decades. Discover how the Upper West Side has been shaped by waves of immigration, from its roots as an Irish and Italian enclave to its evolution into a backdrop for some of the most beloved TV shows and films like You’ve Got Post and Ghostbusters. Each tour is uniquely designed to combine cultural landmarks, architectural beauty, and local insights into the neighborhood’s ever-changing social fabric. We cater to both first-time visitors and seasoned travellers looking for an authentic NYC experience that goes beyond the typical tourist path.
