Overview

Join Kenny Bollwerk — social media creator and founder of viral “Rat Tok” — for a one-of-a-kind walking tour that shines a light on the city’s most notorious (and furry) residents: the rats.

As featured in national media and followed by hundreds of thousands online, Kenny leads guests through NYC's backstreets, alleyways, and trash-lined curbs to explore the quirky, grimy, and oddly fascinating world of NYC's rodent population.

This is part urban adventure, part comedy show, and part public service announcement — all rolled into a 90-minute experience that’s as unforgettable as the city itself.

Perfect for: adventurous tourists, NYC locals, curious animal lovers, and anyone who enjoys learning weird things in weird places.

As you walk through alleyways, side streets, and high-traffic corridors, you’ll learn how food waste, building design, sanitation schedules, and human behavior all influence where rats live and thrive.
