History

Established in 2004.

As founder, I decided to change careers and follow my bliss. As a lifelong New Yorker my love for this city has never been greater and playing the role of unofficial ambassador, entertainer and guide is a joy not a job.

I started the company because I perceived a void in the private tour business as no one provided what I envisioned; a better way to conduct private tours. People love to have fun during tours, not listen to scripted speeches filled with facts, dates, numbers and names. Rather, I felt that tours should be engaging, focusing on client’s interests, immersing them in the grit and pulse of the city, exposing visual references that provide evidence of our diversity, our historical wonders, the folklore, the stories such as: Whose idea was it to build The Empire State Building and why? Why did New York City get so big?

Whether you’re a «newbie» or been here before, you will be amazed, amused and enjoy a most enthralling and memorable experience!

Meet the Business Owner

Cliff S.

Business Owner

Born and breed in New York City has, more than anything else, made me who I am. All my life I have learned to love people, diversity, others ideas and embrace a fast paced life style. As a New Yorker I love challenges,

creativity, lively people; movers, shakers and doers.

I have run a business in Manhattan for many years and faced life making my living «on the pavement» in a dog eat dog world, never complaining or blinking an eye. Optimism and shooting for the stars, striving for success and constantly creating, improving and knowing that attitude results in altitude has been my philosophy of life. So happy to be here, in the greatest city on earth.
