Tours

Take a Walk New York offers two types of tours: scheduled tours, which are open to the public, and custom tours, which are planned to meet the needs and interests of people who book them. One or more of our regularly scheduled tours can be modified to create a tour customized to your interests and timetable. Please contact us at least four weeks in advance to plan a custom tour, longer if you want a tour that includes areas we do not regularly cover.

These are walking tours. Most scheduled tours cover 1 to 2 miles and last 2 to 2½ hours. If you cannot walk this much or if you have trouble keeping up with a group, please schedule a custom tour instead. We’ll slow the pace, eliminate some stops, or include breaks on the custom tour, and you’ll enjoy it more.

Below are descriptions of our scheduled tours. Please note that registration is required.
